OlderWillow Shields Joins Netflix's 'Spinning Out' With Kaya Scodelario
Willow Shields and Kaya Scodelario are skating into Netflix’s upcoming drama series, Spinning Out.
Deadline reports that Kaya will step into the lead role, which Emma Roberts dropped out of – Kat Baker.
Kat is an up-and-coming, high-level single skater who’s about to turn in her skates after a disastrous fall took her off the competition track. When Kat seizes an opportunity to continue her career as a pair skater with a talented bad-boy partner, she risks exposing a fiercely kept secret that could unravel her entire life.
On and off the ice, Kat and her new partner will face daunting odds, injury to body and soul, financial sacrifice, and even potential mental breakdown on their way to realizing their Olympic dream.
Willow will portray Kat Baker’s younger sister Serena, who lacks her sister’s natural grace on the ice, but makes up for it with discipline and fierce determination.
Her complicated relationship with her sister is made up of equal parts loyalty and competition.
