Hanratty might play a cannibal on Yellowjackets, but in real life she doesn’t even touch any animal products. ​"Everything I'm eating is Beyond Meat, just because I'm vegan, so they just reassure me that every time blood sprays in my face, 'Don't worry! It's vegan!'" she told The Daily Beast.

2. Prioritizing Mental Health

Sammi is proactive about her mental health. “I just started new anti anxiety meds and so far so good. A couple of bumps in the road but that’s to be expected when transitioning to new meds. Being out in nature has really helped me this week while my body acclimates. I also found out recently I have ADHD so I might be getting on meds for that as well still not sure but trying to figure it out before I go back to work! If you struggle with anxiety, depression, or ADHD I’m right there with you baby!!! We will get through it together,” she captioned a recent Instagram post, wearing a swimsuit at a waterfall.

3. Avoiding Food Allergies

“Growing up, I was sick a lot. I had a gut condition that I didn’t realize. I was in and out of hospitals and urgent cares,” Hanratty told The Daily Beast. “I didn’t really know what was wrong with me for most of my life. It’s so crazy because I’ve been working for twenty years now—I started when I was six—and any time I had a break and wasn’t filming, I was sick. It was almost like my body wouldn’t let me be sick when I had work, and the second a weekend came, I would have a fever and we didn’t really know what was going on.” When she learned that her health issues were connected to food, she made some major changes. “So now, I can’t really eat anything. I’m allergic to avocados, cucumbers, broccoli, banana, cinnamon, curry, fennel, ginger. So many things. But now I’m not sick all the time, so… yay!” she added. “So I’m vegan, allergic to over 30 foods, and now I found out I have GERD which means I need to stay away from foods that contain a lot of acid. So I’m just gonna enjoy a big bowl of water for breakfast. Lol time to do some research and see what I can do!” she tweeted.

4. High Intensity Interval Training

1. She Used Her Co-Worker As A Way To Help Herself

On Yellowjackets, Hanratty plays a younger version of Christina Ricci’s character. This is a dream come true for her, as Hanratty used to draw strength and inspiration from one of Ricci’s roles. She tells The Daily Beast, “Growing up, I was sick a lot. I had a gut condition that I didn’t realize. I was in and out of hospitals and urgent cares, and my mom would always tell me, ‘Be strong like Molly.’ It’s a quote from a movie that I was obsessed with growing up called Gold Diggers, and Christina was one of the main characters in the movie. I grew up with that movie being my whole, ‘Be strong, you got this’ sort of thing every time I was scared. So, it’s really special to now not only work with her but be the same character as her.”

2. She Plays Different Roles

Hanratty has played a lot of different types of characters throughout her career. She says that she wants to have a variety of roles in her life. “I’ve been so lucky and blessed in my career to play so many different types of people, and my hope is that I never stick to just one type of person, that I get to play everybody at some point,” she told Brief Take. “That’s the whole point. I get to play pretend for a living.”

3. She’s Vegan

Hanratty is open about being a vegan, and she makes sure to keep this lifestyle up when she’s playing a character who isn’t vegan. Hanratty’s Yellowjackets character has to eat various meats during the show, however, Hanratty is actually eating plant-based options when she is doing this. ​She tells The Daily Beast, “Everything I’m eating is Beyond Meat, just because I’m vegan, so they just reassure me that every time blood sprays in my face, ‘Don’t worry! It’s vegan!’”

Hanratty has been acting since she was young. She says that since the beginning of her career, her parents have been extremely supportive of her. “I don’t think I realized as a kid, you know, what was really going on,” she tells Bustle. “But my mom has been by my side this entire time. She’s just always been there and very protective over me.”

Samantha Hanratty, best known as teen Misty on the Showtime smash series Yellowjackets, is nearly unrecognizable in real life. Gone is the blond, curly wig and glasses, dorky clothes and the disease to please, embodied by her rather unstable character. Instead, she’s got straight hair, a confident gaze and a fit figure. It’s a testament to her performance, and the transformation is evident in her latest post, a swimsuit photo. “First beach day of the new year,” she captioned it. How does Hanratty, 26, stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Samantha Hanratty stays in shape and the photos that prove they work—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bathing Suit Photos!

1. She’s a Vegan

Hanratty is a vegan in real life. “We would be on set, I would be eating the ‘meat’”—on the show, about a group of teenage plane crash survivors, the characters eat deer and…possibly one another—“and then would get back to my trailer and then there would be a Beyond Meat sandwich and that was like every day for five months,” she told Page Six. How can you keep vegan? “Vegan diets exclude meat, poultry, fish, eggs and dairy products — and foods that contain these products,” says the Mayo Clinic. “Choose a variety of healthy plant-based foods, such as whole fruits and vegetables, legumes and nuts, and whole grains. At the same time, cut back on less healthy choices, such as sugar-sweetened beverages, fruit juices and refined grains.”

2. She Says She Would Not Be Able to Survive Two Weeks in the Woods

Hanratty said she wouldn’t last long in the woods. “I’m vegan and allergic to everything, so I’m already at a major disadvantage,” she told Page Six. “If I had a foraging book I think I would be OK. I could live…I think I could survive two weeks, but I would not be happy. I would have lost my…marbles. I definitely would come back being not OK, not OK in the slightest.” She added: “I seriously feel like the luckiest girl in the world to be a part of this show and playing this amazing character,” Hanratty has said.

3. She Always Wanted the Spotlight

“I just knew I wanted to entertain,” she told Christina Ricci, who plays the older Misty, in a conversation in Interview. “I’m the youngest of five girls and I probably wanted the spotlight, but I told my parents, ‘I want to be on TV like Shirley Temple,’ and my mom finally gave in when I turned six. I kept begging and then she finally sent my picture to an agency and they called the next week. I had an audition for a commercial and booked it, and it just was meant to be. My mom is still waiting for me to leave it behind. She supports me, but she also says, ‘Whenever you want to stop, go ahead and stop.’”

4. She Saw a Therapist While Shooting

“I don’t think we’ve talked about this, but I was seeing a therapist while I was in Canada, and that was something that we discussed. I was definitely treated differently when I was in hair and makeup and wardrobe,” she told Ricci in Interview. “I got more self-conscious, and my walk even changed a bit. I just felt like a bigger target, you know, as a person.” If you’re considering therapy, ask yourself a few queations first. “Are you looking for individual, relationship or family therapy?” Dawn Potter, PsyD, says to the Cleveland Clinic. “You need to consider if you’re looking for treatment for a specific problem that requires a specialist,” she continues. “Maybe you’re just looking for general growth. That decision will also determine what kind of therapist and what qualifications you’re looking for.”

5. She Has Streamed Her Workouts

Hanratty has streamed herself on Twitch working out. In one video, she’s got a simple yoga mat and some free weights, and does exercises that work her core, back and upper body. (It was part of a fundraiser.) “You can do core-strength exercises on a carpeted floor or mat. Breathe freely and deeply during each core-strength exercise. Focus on tightening your transversus abdominis, the deepest abdominal muscle and the one you feel contracting when you cough, says the Mayo Clinic. Want to hear about how her teammates stay fit?

It’s times like the last week where alcohol is constantly starring me in the face begging to touch my lips again. Every time that I choose sparkling water or a mocktail, I’m filled with the reminder that I’m choosing my health, happiness, and peace. It’s not always easy but it’s extremely important. I’m so thankful to those who are constantly supporting me and it’s always so beautiful to meet fellow sober creators♥️There are more of us than people know.
