The UB Interview: Sisi Stringer Talks ‘Vampire Academy’ Finale
The Season One finale of Peacock‘s “Vampire Academy” is streaming now on Peacock!
The series comes from executive producers Julie Plec & Marguerite MacIntyre, a story of friendship, romance and danger.
From the book series, which is a personal favorite of Julie Plec’s.
In a world of privilege and glamour, two young women’s friendship transcends their strikingly different classes as they prepare to complete their education and enter vampire society.
One as a powerful Royal, the other a half-vampire Guardian trained to protect against the savage “Strigoi” who threaten to tear their society apart. That is, if Royal infighting doesn’t do the job first.
Sisi Stringer plays Rose Hathaway, a vampire-human hybrid known as a Dhampir. Fiery and outspoken, Rose is a true fighter in spirit and in practice. She always jumps into action, and more often than not, this results in demerits. She might be the strongest fighter in her class, but her success will depend entirely on her willingness to toe the line when it counts.
Sisi Stringer is an Australian actress. In 2018, she graduated from Queensland University of Technology where she received a Bachelor degree in Fine Arts with distinction in acting. Following her graduation, she was immediately cast as Erin Lafond in ABC‘s “Harrow.”
