Who plays Georgia in Ginny and Georgia and what is her age?
Georgia is played by 31-year-old Brianne Howey.
Brianne was born in Los Angeles, California in 1989, and was brought up in Pasadena. She studied theatre at New York University Tisch School of the Arts, and appeared in a number of short films while at university.
Speaking about her role as Georgia, she told Hollywood Life: "I think Georgia is holding on so tight to this sort of house of cards that she begins to believe it herself. I think in order for her to sell this facade, she truly has to believe it wholeheartedly. So I don’t know that she can be completely honest with herself."
She added of Ginny and Georgia's relationship: "I think Ginny turning into Georgia is the most terrifying thing in the world for Georgia. That’s why in the pilot, when she sees her on the motorcycle, Georgia completely loses it, and Ginny can’t wrap her head around why.
"But I think when Georgia sees bits and pieces of herself in Ginny, it’s terrifying and her motivation throughout the whole season is to make sure that’s exactly what doesn’t happen."
