Meghann Fahy (Sirens)

She plays the sharp, dark, and funny Devon DeWitt, a role that Fahy says she hadn’t had the opportunity to step into before, and the first pilot that she really chased after loving the script.

Cho shares what it was like to grow thicker skin in LA, her experience on Teen Wolf and Partner Track, and her love for playing poker as a woman underestimated in the game.
