Norwegian-American actress Kristine Froseth discusses how her Looking for Alaska character changed her whole life.

What Goes Around
From The Weeknd’s 2016 False Alarm music video to her breakout roles in last year’s Apostle and Sierra Burgess Is a Loser, Kristine Froseth’s film and TV projects have amassed huge popularity – and her new ones look set to follow suit. This year alone, she starred in Low Tide, Prey and Netflix’s The Society, which will return for a sophomore season in 2020. But it’s Hulu’s long-awaited Looking for Alaska that is most special to the 23-year-old actress.

Set in 2005 and based on John Green’s beloved novel, Looking for Alaska follows the story of Miles Halter (a.k.a. Pudge), whose life is changed forever after meeting the enigmatic Alaska Young at Culver Creek Prep in Alabama. Through friendship, pain, love and grief (and following François​ Rabelais’s last words) the characters in the book seek “a great perhaps”. Froseth definitely found her own in Alaska Young.

First scouted as a model, Froseth’s sights were set on the fashion industry (where she still has a pretty impressive foothold as a CHANEL ambassador) until the role of Alaska came along four years ago. She embarked on her “first-ever audition” and was fully immersed in casting calls and chemistry reads for months thereafter, but the project – originally planned as a movie – never came to fruition. “I was so heartbroken,” Froseth recalls. “I just fricking loved the novel. I loved John Green. I loved Alaska. I kept checking in every year and, luckily, it came back around.”
