Description Name: Andrea "Andie" Lynn Bennett
Hair Colour: Black
Eye Colour: Green
Height: 5'3

Special Skills: As she was once part of the Canadian military, Andie is a skilled pilot and proficient with small firearms. She's also trained in hand-to-hand combat. Andie is fluent in several languages including English, French and Spanish.

Background: At the tender age of twelve, Andie made her foray into acting on a small family show. The exposure helped her to land a much-coveted role on a teen drama where Andie sky-rocketed to fame. Unfortunately, the pace with which she became a star was much too fast for her and Andie fell prey to the trappings of most child stars. She partied three days a week and eventually became an alcoholic before she'd ever reached her eighteenth birthday.

At the behest of her family, Andie eventually left the spotlight and went back home to Vancouver where she sought treatment for her alcoholism. At the end of her long journey through recovery, Andie decided to join the military to do something more positive with her life.

Andie proved to be a talented pilot and quickly worked her way up the ranks in the air force. Despite her many promotions, Andie eventually felt she wasn't doing the best she could so she made the difficult decision to leave the military to pursue other avenues.

Moving to New York City, Andie opened her own private investigations agency named 'Femmes Fatales Investigations'. Shortly thereafter, Andie took in her cousin Tai who had also come to the city in order to study theatre. Also around this time Andie met personal trainer Paul Young and the two became an item.

Three years later, Andie is engaged and is looking forward to her wedding.

Personality: Andie is an intelligent and articulate woman who has a healthy sense of humour. She values family and friendship highly often putting the needs of those around her before herself. However, Andie can also be stubborn and hot-headed. She's argumentative and likes to be right.

Likes: Cooking, fast cars, interior design.

Style: Andie is best described as a rock cowgirl. She loves jeans and has countless pairs. She'll often pair them with simple shirts or dress them up with sequined tops. Andie also loves boots, motorcycle jackets and jean vests. She also likes trench coats and chic dresses. Andie gravitates towards blues, blacks, browns and greys remaining rooted in darker shades.

Wow, I was just looking back to see how much your characters have changed and Andie looks completely different here face and hair wise. Β she looks a lot like Shannen Doherty, that's interesting to see how much she's visually changed.Β

Andie has gone through a lot of visual changes over the years. I like to take inspiration from real life actors as a way of imagining how my characters would look in real life. Andie started out as a tribute to Shannen Doherty and her look reflected that. However, there was a brief period of time where I imagined her being portrayed by the singer P!nk and Jennifer Garner served as another inspiration of mine. In fact, Garner was my #1 choice to play Andie for a few years (2013-2015 to be precise). Rachel McAdams became my new #1 once I moved the series setting to Canada and sought out to have that further reflected in some of the casting choices.

Do you think you'll stick with Rachel McAdams as the inspiration or can you see Andie having a new inspiration in the future ?

Well, I'm not a psychic, so that's a question that only someone with precognition would be able to answer. I mean, Adrienne and Nichelle have had the same "model" for years. Melissa and Andie change every now and then. Then, Farrah and Jennette don't really have one.

Maybe I should have reworded it, do you have any desire as of now to give her a new facial inspiration ?

Not particularly. I like the idea of Rachel McAdams portraying her. It offers authenticity to the role as she herself is a Canadian and lives in the city that my series is set. It also fulfills what I'd like to see McAdams do as an actress. Despite all of her talent, she seems to have been relegated to romantic comedies, indie films, and supporting roles in larger big budget films. I want to see her kick ass.

That said, I still love the idea of Jennifer Garner playing her and I wouldn't be adverse to Andie being portrayed by a woman of colour. After all, my other top choices to play her are Kerry Washington, Taraji P. Henson, or Sharon Leal. I'm deliberately vague about Andie's physical appearance (aside from the fact that she has dark hair and an athletic frame) as a way of allowing her to be cast based on talent rather than appearance.

Even still, my preference is for her to be portrayed by a Canadian actress. Evangeline Lily, Cobie Smulders, Malin Akerman, Erica Durance, and Stana Katic would all slay this role. Β
