'Euphoria' Season 3 introduces several new characters, including Kitty, played by Anna Van Patten. Her debut inEpisode 4, titled 'Kitty Likes to Dance', quickly sparked reactions across social media, with many viewers also pointing out her resemblance to her sister, Grace Van Patten.
Here's everything to know about the 'Euphoria' newcomer.
Anna Van Patten is a 27-year-old actress. She's the younger sister of Grace Van Patten, who is best known for her role as Lucy Albright in the Hulu series, 'Tell Me Lies.'
Her father, Tim Van Patten, is an Emmy-winning director known for his work on popular shows, including 'Game of Thrones' and 'The Sopranos'. Her uncle and aunt are actors Dick and Joyce Van Patten.
When Anna was younger, she imagined a future in architecture. At the same time, she also wanted to work with animals, but then she eventually fell in love with acting.
'Watching many family members work in the business and getting to go on set from an early age made me fall in love with storytelling and the magic of filmmaking,' she toldWho What Wear.
She then attended a performing arts high school and graduated from The New School in New York, where she studied film. She auditioned throughout college and took classes in acting, voice, and improv.

'I went to a performing arts high school where you could major in a subject. I majored in drama, and then I went to the New School for college where I studied film. I think learning all aspects of film can only teach me more about the art as a whole. I think that having 'Gossip Girl' as my first job is teaching me a lot, because there's really nothing like learning from being on set,' Van Pattentold Modern Luxury.
Before 'Euphoria', Van Patten starred in the 2021 'Gossip Girl' reboot and landed a guest role in 'Law & Order: Special Victims Unit'. She also played Deanna Knox, Grace's younger sister in the miniseries 'The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox'.
