Bustle Booth
Ive always marched to the beat of my own drum.
Zoe Collettis first foray into acting happened accidentally.
It was a sausage commercial, which is really glamorous, Colletti tells Bustle.
I was brutally shy when I was young; I would barely utter a word.
My brother got an agent, and the agent didnt want me because [I] didnt speak.
Both she and her brother got the part.
Fifteen years later, shy is the last word that comes to mind when you meet Colletti.
Ive always marched to the beat of my own drum, Colletti says.
Its helped her navigate the world of acting without feeling like auditions are a life-or-death endeavor.
Im doing this for fun, and that has really helped with the mass amounts of gruesome rejection.
The Netflix dark comedy, out July 8, follows the tight-knit duo after Erikas bizarre and untimely death.
But Ive gotten the opportunity to play young characters who have really cool stories around them.
Collettis own time as a teenager was also about finding new paths.
As a high schooler, shewasnt worried about fitting in, and she certainly doesnt care about it now.
Like Gia, shes boldly herself.
I tend to be a bit awkward or goofy sometimes.
If someone says that is weird… then being weird is cool now.
