The Perfectionists: All the New and Returning Cast Members of the Pretty Little Liars Spinoff

The former Descendants actress joins the cast as an influencer "whose schoolwork often takes a backseat to her career." Carson described Ava to Teen Vogue as "compassionate" and "strong" but alluded to the fact that Ava has some dark secrets, just like all the perfectionists. "There's so much depth and dimension to her story, and she carries so much on her shoulders, and yet she carries it with so much grace," Carson explained. "Despite all odds, she's determined to survive, and to succeed at everything she sets her mind to."
