John Green is known for writing complex and sad stories about teenagers, and Looking For Alaska is no different. After years of waiting, the 2005 novel is finally being adapted for the small screen with Hulu's new miniseries, which premiered on Oct. 18. Though the show includes quite a few nods to the book, it also expands more on minor characters, including Chip's girlfriend Sara, played by Landry Bender.
We recently had a chance to talk with the 19-year-old actress and she dished on everything from her "crazy" audition process (She actually auditioned for two other characters originally!) to how the series shows a whole new side to her once "one-dimensional" character.
