In the 1980s, romance became a common sub-theme in her books, and the novels have been adapted numerous times for both film and television.

Production on the show began in 2015, but due to numerous disagreements between networks, it was eventually moved to the CW in 2018. The show features re-imaginings of several characters from the books, with some of her co-stars including Leah Lewis, Maddison Jaizani, and Tunji Kasim. The show has been running for over a season and has been renewed to continue production. Its reception has been mixed, with most critics stating that this new series adds nothing to what other shows have already established in the character, making it nothing special.

Despite this, the role significantly elevated Kennedy’s career.

Other projects

In addition to work, McMann offers services via video, at a low cost, to create short videos for events or others. All proceeds from her work go to charity and she can be contacted through the website Cameo, a hub of celebrities past and present who want to earn a little extra or give back to the community. It has grown into a very large site, with actors, athletes, models and many others offering their personalized video messages.

Kennedy also spends some of her spare time playing and promoting the table game”Dungeons and Dragons”, considered one of the oldest table games and a forerunner of the role-playing genre. It allows players to become characters in a fantasy world, often of different races with the ability to fight, cast magic, and interact with the world. Each game or session is handled by a Dungeon Master, who oversees the world the characters play in and the decisions they make. The game has become very popular in recent years thanks to celebrity and internet fame.

Private life

Kennedy is single and there have been no reports of past or current romantic relationships her way. She’s still young and actually just starting her acting career, which may mean she’s more focused on work than on long-term relationships. She stays very close to her family anyway and spends time with them when she can. She also has a dog that she regularly posts on social media. She admits that she is a huge fan of reality television, having many shows of her liking.
