Believe it or not, Kiara Pichardo is no stranger to the teen drama world. Did you know that she also starred in the short-lived Netflix teen drama, The Society? She played the recurring role of Madison Russo.
In School Spirits, Pichardo plays Nicole Herrera, who just so happens to be one of Maddie Nears’s close friends. Back in March 2023, the actress sat down for an exclusive interview with ComingSoon alongside her School Spirits co-star, Kristian Ventura.
While talking about the show, Pichardo shared what drew her to Nicole. At the time, she said, “When I first got the script for them, I resonated a lot with her, because in high school I did photography and I was artsy. Although I was kind of cool with everybody, I still had my little group of friends like Simon and Maddie. I just resonated with those aspects of her and how brave she was, too, and how much she fought for Maddie, her friend.”
When she is not acting on screen, she usually posts funny videos with her School Spirits castmates as well as her latest projects on Instagram. Most recently, Pichardo posted a teaser for a short film she starred in titled Principe Azul. Stephanie Bisono (who starred in, produced, directed and wrote the project) thanked Pichardo for being her scene partner in a heartfelt Instagram post.
