Chrissy Metz - New Role, Not "Plus Size"

Chrissy Metz, best known as Kate on NBC's This Is Us, has landed a role in a film for a character that isn't specifically plus size, and weight is not a part of the movie's plot!

According to People, The Impossible, is "based on the true story of a mom who sticks by her 14-year-old son’s side as he miraculously recovers from falling through a frozen lake." Metz also landed the role without even auditioning - another sign that her time has arrived.
We are so excited for Chrissy, and love that she's being given the opportunity to play a role that isn't defined by her size. 
​Go Chrissy!
