Maia Reficco is one to watch, as she continues to build a notable and diverse resume across film, television, music, and the stage. Reficco stars as one of the leads, or “Liars,” in the HBO Max Original Series Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin, which returns for Season 2 this May under the new title Pretty Little Liars: Summer School. Helmed by Riverdale creator Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, the dark, coming-of-age, horror-tinged drama follows a brand-new set of Liars who find themselves tormented by an unknown Assailant.

Following, Reficco stars alongside KJ Apa and Eric Dane in One Fast Move, the action-adventure film from writer-director Kelly Blatz for Amazon Prime Video. The story follows a dishonorably discharged soldier (Apa) who seeks out his estranged father (Dane) to help him pursue his dream of becoming a professional motorcycle racer. While training, he meets a small-town, aspiring singer (Reficco) who begins to break down the walls his father’s absence had built up. The film is set to release on August 8th. Reficco most recently starred alongside Camila Mendes and Maya Hawke in the Netflix dark comedy feature Do Revenge, directed by Jennifer Kaytin Robinson. She recently wrapped production on A Cuban Girl's Guide to Tea and Tomorrow—a new film based on the New York Times bestselling novel by Laura Taylor Namey. Reficco rose to fame in Latin America for her role as ‘Kally’ in the hit Nickelodeon series Kally’s Mashup, for which she earned several Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards.
