In an interview with Entertainment Tonight at the ATX TV Festival on June 1, Schull shared her journey with the USA Network show. "I auditioned for the pilot, for the role of Rachel Zane, and then for every single female guest star they had on the show," she recounted, emphasizing her determination to join the series.
"That is not an exaggeration," Schull, 45, stressed, highlighting the numerous auditions she attended.
The actress, also known for her role in "Pretty Little Liars," recalled the moment when she finally got a call from the series after numerous attempts. "When the opportunity came around for the role of Katrina, I don't think I'm speaking out of turn when I say that they suggested the role was written for me because they had seen me so many times," she explained.
However, she humorously noted, "and I still had to audition for it and I almost didn't get the job."
Reflecting on her experiences with the various roles she auditioned for, including the one secured by Prince Harry’s wife, Schull admitted that those roles didn't feel like the right fit for her. Ultimately, her persistence paid off, leading her to the role she was truly meant for: Katrina Bennett.
