Maia Reficcio, will play the role of Noa, a track star who is trying to resume a normal life after a stint in juvenile detention.

The third liar will be played by Bailee Madison in the role of Imogen, a girl who drives the plot forward to unveil the mysterious “A.”

The show’s description says,” Twenty years ago, a series of tragic events almost ripped the blue-collar town of Millwood apart.

“Now, in the present day, a group of disparate teen girls — a brand-new set of Little Liars — find themselves tormented by an unknown Assailant and made to pay for the secret sin their parents committed two decades ago … as well as their own.

“In the dark, coming-of-age, horror-tinged drama Pretty Little Liars; Original Sin, we find ourselves miles away from Rosewood, but within the existing Pretty Little Liars universe — in a brand-new town, with a new generation of Little Liars.”

What was the original Pretty Little Liars show about?

The original show took place in the small town of Rosewood, Pennsylvania when Alison is found to be dead.

The existing friend group attends her funeral at which time they all receive the same text, “I’m still here, bitches. And I know everything. – A.”

“A” plagues the four friends, Aria Montgomery, Spencer Hastings, Hannah Marin, and Emily Fields over the course of seven seasons, each time revealing another player in the game.

The girls are tormented by an invisible man or woman and with each turn a new sinister threat awaits.

From nearly being forced onto a train track from a speeding train to being stalked in a vintage shop, the girls are never alone and there is seemingly no one they can trust.

All seven seasons of Pretty Little Liars is available to stream on HBO Max.
