Sarah Catherine Hook Spills the Tea on Her 'People We Meet on Vacation' Character
You likely recognize Sarah Catherine Hook from this current drama-filled season of The White Lotus. Sarah takes on the role of Piper Ratliff, who the actress describes as "a spiritual seeker who's quietly confident" (via InStyle). Sarah's character stars alongside siblings Saxon Ratliff (Patrick Schwarzenegger) and Lochlan Ratliff (Sam Nivola) and parents Victoria Ratliff (Parker Posey) and Timothy Ratliff (Jason Isaacs).
Sarah opened up about working with Parker in a Glamour interview, saying, "I never met anyone like her." She shared with the outlet, "In the beginning she and I hung out a lot and she took me under her wing. She was really sweet and cute and very curious about me. She just is a little special, unique butterfly … She and I both went to SUNY Purchase College. I was in the music program; she was in the acting program. I was an opera major. So that was fun for us to be able to bond over that."
Another role the 29-year-old actress is set to star in? Netflix's adaption of People We Meet on Vacation, which is based on the popular Emily Henry novel. Sarah recently spilled some tea about her People We Meet character, and we're all ears.
She Plays Her Age in the Film
In her interview with Glamour, Sarah Catherine Hook compared her White Lotus and People We Meet on Vacation characters.
"I was doing another film in Wilmington, North Carolina, playing a completely different character from my role in People We Meet on Vacation, and I had to film them at the same time in one week," she told the outlet. "I had to leave North Carolina and go to New Orleans to finish up Vacation, and I was my age. She's very calm and poised, compared to what I was doing in North Carolina, where I was this 18-year-old grungy, angsty girl. Even my body language changed. I was just like a 30-year-old princess in People We Meet on Vacation."
