To quote the great Big Sean: Jordyn Woods took an L, but now she's bouncing back! After the cheating scandal involving Jordyn [1] and Khloé Kardashian's ex Tristan Thompson [2] earlier this year, the 21-year-old former best friend of Kylie Jenner is moving on professionally. On Wednesday, Freeform announced that Jordyn will make her acting debut in the second season of Grown-ish, which picks up on June 5 [3]. According to People, she's set to appear later in the season and will play Dee [4], a freshman at school with Zoey Johnson (Yara Shahidi [5]) who's a "sweet soul with a soft-spoken and sincere vulnerability."
After her inseparable friendship with Kylie [6] ended in March, Jordyn has stayed positive and focussed on her career [7], and it's clearly paying off. She launched a collection of false lashes in April and modelled in fashion campaigns, but this move into acting is huge. Jordyn shared the news on her Instagram [8] with the official Freeform photo, writing, "I've been waiting to share this with you guys but I am SO excited to guest star on this season of #grownish. It returns June 5th on @freeform ✨ This was the first role I've ever booked and I was nervous at first but I got past that and had the best time 🙏🏽 take risks and stay consistent to your journey, you never know what the world has to offer ✨." We can't wait to see how Jordyn's character fits in with the Cal U crew [9] when she appears on July 24. See all the exciting reactions ahead.
