Madelyn Cline Covers The New Issue Of Cosmopolitan
Madelyn Cline is on the cover of the new issue of Cosmopolitan. The actress is on the cover to promote the new season of her hit Netflix series, Outer Banks. Highlights from her interview are below.
On growing up in South Carolina: “When I was younger, my mom would take me downtown to hotel restaurants, which to me were really, really fancy. She would teach me table manners and how to order. Otherwise, I would have my nose buried in books that were about some crazy adventure teenage kids would go on, how they’d get lost along the way and find their best friends. I would finish and my heart would ache because I loved those characters so much. When I was around 11 or 12, I got scouted by a model scout and my family went to New York for the summers so I could work. I started to save up for college, which I was really excited about because I was like, I’m helping my parents. I feel really proud of that.”
On those rumors that she would not be returning for season three: “I remember getting tagged in something and I was like, I’m not returning for season 3? That’s the only time I’ve ever gone to social media and addressed a personal rumor. But when I did, I misspelled the word “grateful.” I was a glass of wine deep at that point, like, Okay, I have to delete this now. But there was never any question. I love Sarah, and I love this job.”
On her parents’ reaction to her acting: “I first moved out here and it was like that Frances McDormand line from Almost Famous, ‘Rock stars have kidnapped my son.’ But now they’re stoked. When I was younger, I would read magazines and look at those girls and think, She’s so lucky. She gets to travel. She gets to do what she loves. Now I’m on the other side of it and I’m thinking about what my reaction as a 16-year-old would have been. It’s always fun to talk about the ride getting here. Even though it was tough, I look at it really fondly. And I live for having stories to tell.”
