The plan was to get a Ph.D. But while studying ancient rhetoric at The Pennsylvania State University (after completing a triple major in philosophy, studies at the political science, and communication University of Rhode Island), Aria Mia Loberti began doubting her career trajectory. Then she heard of a casting call for the movie adaptation of a book she loved. "I just thought I might enjoy the audition, and when it came time for them to reject me, I wanted to ask if they could see someone like me getting involved in local theater," the 29-year-old tells me over Zoom, before we get a chance to meet up in person a few days later for Loberti's photoshoot in New York City.
The directors didn't see someone like Loberti getting involved in local theater, though. Instead, they cast her in the lead role, one that would put her on screen (at the time of our conversation, the SAG-AFTRA strike was ongoing, which prevented us from discussing the project in greater detail).
