Sophia Bush To Star in Disney Plus's 'Love Simon' Series!

Sophia Bush has signed on to star in a recurring role of Disney Plus’s Love, Simon series!

The new Disney+ show will still be called Love, Simon, though it will follow a different young character named Victor played by lead Michael Cimino. The show will be set in the same world as the movie, and original movie star Nick Robinson will narrate the half-hour series in addition to serving as producer.

Sophia will play Veronica, Mia’s (Rachel Naomi Hilson) father’s new girlfriend. Chic and sophisticated, runs a non-profit devoted to helping women. Friendly and easy to like but can be strong-willed and tough when she needs to be, Deadline reports.
