Beverley Mitchell Audition
As is the case with many TV shows, Beverley Mitchell wound up playing a different character to the one she originally auditioned for. At first, she auditioned for the role of Mary Camden, but producers felt she wasn’t right for the part. The role eventually wound up going to Jessica Biel and would make her a household name.
However, that wasn’t the end of things for Beverley. She was invited to audition for a different part, the role of Lucy Camden; Mary’s younger sister. She impressed producers so much that she was offered the role and cast on the spot. It was obviously the right choice, and she went on to play the part for 242 episodes and became a firm favorite.
