Sara Waisglass on Max's season of change in Ginny and Georgia S3
There's a scene towards the end of Ginny and Georgia season three, where we are invited into Maxine's internal monologue. It's a rapid firing of a million thoughts and questions at once - her battery is low, the chicken needs to go in the oven, do her friends hate her? Is her brother an alcoholic? Wait, she has homework to do? It's a relatable moment, and one that Sara Waisglass is finding herself experiencing more and more after four years of playing Maxine [Max for short] Baker. 'If I'm with my mum shopping, we'll be like, 'Oh, that shirt is so Max. Or, like, these trousers are so Max. Or, I'll do a mannerism, and my mum will say, 'that is completely Max', which is fun. She pops out at many different moments,' Sara laughs. 'If I'm going into a room with people I don't know, or even doing this interview, I'm going to be honest, some part of me channels her. Her confidence comes out. I think that's the thing I love most about her, her energy. It's a very infectious and loving thing.' After spending just half an hour with Sara, chatting over Zoom, it's clear to see Max's warm infectious energy is most definitely a Sara thing, too. It's early in the morning when I call the 26-year-old in her native Toronto. She's a few minutes late and apologises profusely before gushing about how content she's feeling. "I'm great. I'm super. I'm actually so happy these days," she says when I ask her how her day is going. She's got a lot to be happy about right now, that's for sure. Her long distance boyfriend just arrived into the city and the couple plan to spend a few days together. 'We're going to go and look for outfits for him', before travelling to Los Angeles for a full run of Ginny & Georgia press. Oh, that's the other reason to be excited, btw. Netflix's hit drama series Ginny & Georgia returned yesterday for its third season after two years away. Telling the story of a mother and her teenage daughter, the series which debuted in 2021, has had 967.2 million hours viewed across both seasons, and is sure to only explode with the release of its third season. The new series sees Georgia (Brianne Howey) arrested and facing trial for the murder of her neighbour's husband. Meanwhile her daughter Ginny (Antonia Gentry) must deal with the fallout of her mum's crimes and a new romance, all while trying to balance her friendship group. Sara plays Ginny's best friend Max - a loud, outgoing, big-hearted girl with a passion for drama, both on and off the stage. Sara's career began long before Max though. At just six years old she was booking commercials, following a Dove advert she appeared in, thanks to her mum. 'I consider myself half a nepo baby, because my mum was a producer, and she still is for commercials. They're very different industries, but still, she was doing a Dove campaign and she needed real people and my mum was like, 'Well, you're shooting at my house you might as well use my daughter'. At the end of the day, the director came up to my mum and was like, 'Your daughter's pretty directable, you might want to consider getting her an agent.'' Months later, Sara had booked the Disney Channel series Overruled! which she appeared in for three years. Does she feel like a typical Disney kid, I ask? 'I wouldn't say it was one of the hit [shows], but it was really fun, and it shot in Toronto, which was amazing, because I still got to stay here with my family. They just treated me so well, and I got to do such wacky stuff and really get comfortable on a set, which has served me so well over the years.' She ended up taking a break after Overruled!, happy to have skipped having her awkward teenage years caught on camera. 'I got the awkward phase out of the way. I had braces, I had the bad haircuts, so it was a good time to quit.' Skip to a few years and she was helping a friend run lines, and the acting bug caught her again. She began auditioning and landed the role of Frankie Hollingsworth in Degrassi: The Next Generation which she appeared in for four years. The timing worked out well again, as just as she wrapped on Degrassi, she began her four years at university, studying screenwriting at York University in Toronto. In her final year of university, she booked the role of Max. Since Max first burst onto our screens in 2021, she's been both loved and hated by the show's legions of fans. During the early episodes of season one, she is the enigmatic, energetic and supportive friend of Ginny, but as the show progresses the pair's relationship becomes fractured, and in season two they have a full on falling out. That, along with Max's occasionally selfish attitude caused the fans to turn on Max, with many Tweets and TikTok criticising the character. While Sara says she personally didn't experience much backlash, she admits it hurt for her to see the character of Max treated in that way. 'Most people were able to separate it, which is cool, but I care about her so much, and I love her so much, and so seeing her get beaten up by people who don't know her was tough,' she explains. 'But, you know, I also say that that just means I'm doing my job well. And she was supposed to be a little bit of a naughty little demon in season two. She was supposed to be acting out and being dramatic, that was the whole point. And so people calling her 'annoying and overreactive'. It's like, yeah, she is annoying and overreactive, because 15 year old girls can be annoying and overreactive.' Having watched the majority of season three by the time I chat to Sara, I can't help but admire Max's shift in the new season. There's both a newfound vulnerability and a strength she didn't have in the previous two seasons. 'I think what's cool about this season is that she has less of her own issues, but she's really attentive to what Ginny is going through, what her brother [Marcus] is going through, and she just wants to be there for them. She just wants to be that light for them, which I think is really special and a beautiful side of Max that we haven't really explored before,' she agrees. But we also see Max struggle with her friendship group. While Abby and Ginny grow closer, and at points Norah is also brought into the fold, Max is often unintentionally left out of the group. In one scene, Ginny and Abby happen to both be at the same dress shop and send pictures to the group chat trying on dresses together. The pain in Max's face receiving the photo is heartbreaking and instantly relatable. Watching in my late 20s, I was instantly transported back to that teenage girl sting of pain. 'There's more of that in the next five episodes, and I think that is actually one of the things I'm most proud about for season three, just because I think that is so extremely relatable for high school girls,' she reflects. 'I remember having those moments and seeing everyone hang out [without you]. Or they would all be talking about a movie they went to see and I'd have to be like, 'Okay, well, was it good?' You try so hard to be cool about it, but it hurts and it's a harsh thing that everyone goes through.' It's a season of change for many of the characters, including Max's friend Abby (Katie Douglas), who begins exploring her sexuality, though not to the disappointment of fans everywhere with Max, but instead with skater girl Tris [Noah Lamanna]. 'The fans have always put Abby and Max together. And I've always been down for that. I always think that's so cool, but we always thought Abby was completely straight, and so it never seemed like a possibility,' she says. 'But now that we're kind of seeing Abby explore maybe a queer identity, it's kind of on the table again, which is cool.' But before you start planning the edits, Sara clarifies this is not a confirmed storyline for season four just yet. As for what else we could see for Max in the already confirmed season four? 'After this season, she ends in a weird place with her friends. And so I hope they can mend that. And I also hope that she can repair her relationship with Marcus,' she says. Though her diary is 24/7 Ginny & Georgia right now, Sara can't play a teenager forever. So what does she plan on next? 'A huge source of inspiration for me is Phoebe Waller Bridge,' she says excitedly. 'Her career and the content that she's brought to the table has been extraordinary. Writing, starring and directing in my own piece of work would be the ultimate goal.' She also cites Benito Skinner's Overcompensating as a recent inspiration. 'I always love people who write their own stuff and star in it, just because they understand the story in a way no one else does,' Sara explains. 'I've worked on a couple films that were written and directed by the same people and when it's the same person, it's just very clear, and I love that, so directing might be something I would want to explore someday. I love what I do. I'm never leaving this industry, it really is the best job in the world, and I'm so lucky.' And we're oh so lucky to have her.

Netflix just added a new action thriller movie featuring some brutal brawls — and it'll get your pulse racing
Netflix is home to an impressive array of action thrillers already, but action fans might have spotted that the streaming service has just dropped a brand-new release designed to get your blood pumping. As of today (June 6), Netflix is now home to a new French action thriller from director Antoine Blossier. Introducing: "K.O.," a new Netflix original that takes us to the streets of Marseille alongside a hulking MMA fighter who's come out of retirement to earn a shot at redemption. Wondering whether the streamer's newest arrival is worth your time? Well, you can find a little bit more info about "K.O." (and my initial reaction after streaming the new release) below, which should help you decide whether to stream "K.O." on Netflix or not. Antoine Blossier's "K.O." sees former MMA fighter Bastien (Ciryl Gane) being tasked with searching for a missing boy. Bastien accidentally killed one of his opponents, Enzo, in the ring. He's been a recluse ever since, though three years on from that fateful match, Enzo's widow, Emma (Anne Azoulay), tracks Bastien down and implores him to help find her teen son, Léo (Maleaume Paquin), an informant who's gone missing after witnessing a murder. Bastien sets off to do just that. En route, he joins forces with police chief Kenza (Alice Belaïdi), a woman determined to find justice after Marseilles' most violent criminals murdered her own brother. In addition to Gane, Azoulay, Paquin and Belaïdi, "K.O." also stars Foued Nabba, Samuel Jouy, Virgile Bramly and Malone Ettori. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. "K.O." is a solid addition to Netflix's roster of action movies. Having checked it out myself, I don't think Netflix's new arrival is about to become anyone's all-time favorite watch, but it has enough fun up its sleeves that should satisfy action-starved viewers. Going in, I wasn't aware that Gane was a real-life MMA fighter, but that physicality is on display here. When the fists are flying, "K.O." packs in some decent thrills, and it has some surprisingly grim moments packed in courtesy of the villains. Action-wise, it might feel a little light; "John Wick," this ain't, and the story isn't anything to write home about (it's simple gangster fodder, and only exists to string the setpieces together), but the stuff we've all come to see is sufficiently exciting (especially the big clash that closes the final act). In other words, "K.O." should make for a disposable, tight 90-minute watch for anyone on the hunt for a quick dose of adrenaline this weekend (though if it's big-screen action you want, make sure you go see "Ballerina" soon, too). Need a second opinion before committing to add "K.O." to your Netflix watchlist? Well, seeing as the movie's only just hit our screens, "K.O." doesn't have a Rotten Tomatoes score to shout about at the time of writing (one may come later down the line). However, there are a couple of reactions to the movie online already. Ready Steady Cut's Jonathon Wilson says there's "only one point of a movie like this" (the action) and likens "K.O." to "Ad Vitam" and Exterritorial", describing them collectively as "barebones movies with serviceable set-pieces." Not quite sold on streaming "K.O." on Netflix? We can still help you find your next Netflix watch. Check out our guides to the best Netflix action movies and overall round-up of the best movies on Netflix for tons more streaming recommendations.
