I guess this is as good a time as any to start a thread for the latest PLL spin-off, The Perfectionists, since they wrapped production today. The books on which the show is based was not a PLL spin-off, but the TV show has integrated two PLL characters into the main cast and, more importantly, changed one of the main gang of girls into a gay boy, Dylan - played by newcomer Eli Brown. His casting call described him as "A prodigious cellist who used his passion for music to escape his small-minded hometown, Dylan loves his music almost as much as he loves his boyfriend, Andrew. (And even that’s up for debate.)" His book counterpart, who was also a cellist, held a grudge against the murder victim Nolan for tricking her into sending him nude photos to win a bet. Another major thread in the books was her having a crush on her best friend's boyfriend, which he reciprocated - I'm not sure if either of these can/will be replicated in the TV show. http://instagram.com/p/Bs4YO2rhTWr On the right in the next photo is his boyfriend Andrew - played by Evan Bittencourt. He is described as "the supportive and well-adjusted boyfriend of Dylan, who’s successfully navigating the world of the Perfectionists – for now." The supporting role was originally played by Jacques Colimon in the pilot but was recast when the show went into production. http://instagram.com/p/BsyTqrcBBPe The Perfectionists should premiere on Freeform later this year.
