Okay, so *Sweetpea* starring Ella Purnell was EVERYTHING! I mean, I've loved her since *Arcane* (she's literally the heart of that show), but this role? She's out here playing a character that is somehow both totally innocent *and* a low-key serial killer?? Like, *what?* Her acting is so layered; she's got this adorable vibe, but also you can tell there's something super dark bubbling beneath the surface. It's like she's the type of girl who'll bake you cookies one minute, then next minute, you're like... wait, did she just take out someone?
The whole show felt like a wild comedy-thriller mix, where you're laughing one second and then gripping the couch like "wait, is this gonna get *creepy* now?" The character's journey is also super interesting - she starts out as this loner with no friends, and then she meets her bully, and guess what? They become friends. Like, only in a show like this could that even work.
Honestly, since seeing Ella Purnell in *Arcane*, I'm 100% here for whatever she does next. If this is what she's bringing to the table, I'm ready for more. Now, I'm about to dive into *Arcane* season 2 and, trust, I'm going in with ALL the feels. She's honestly a vibe. Can't wait to see more of her, for real.
