Pen15: Maya and Anna Actors in Real life

Pen15's Maya and Anna Look Completely Different IRL, Duh

It's probably not surprising at all that the PEN15 actors look very different in real life than they do on screen! Maya Erskine and Anna Konkle, who also co-created the Hulu comedy, star as fictionalized versions of their middle school selves, and that means styling themselves like middle schoolers: bad fashion and regrettable haircuts and all.

In real life, though, they're both super stylish women in Hollywood, with their own unique sense of fashion and a much more confident presence. Ahead of the second season, which is set to debut on Sept. 18, keep reading to compare some of their real-life appearances to how they look on screen — you'll barely even recognise them!
