Jo Masterson played by Madelaine Hasson

Last year Maddie Hasson starred as the wily Willa on the Fox series and Bones spinoff, The Finder. She is soon to be seen playing a lead in the independent feature film Underdogs, the story of a hometown football rivalry, and most recently guest starred in the new NBC hit series Grimm.

Since the age of seven, Hasson has danced, sung and acted in pursuit of her dreams while living in her hometown of Wilmington, North Carolina. She has won numerous awards, including the prestigious choreographer Mia Michaels Scholarship at the Broadway Dance Center, and she was the Triple Threat Winner at Access Broadway. But it’s in acting where she found her true passion. Performing back to back in diverse roles in Cape Fear Academy productions and her local professional theatre, The Opera House Theatre, Hasson won praise for her performances in Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Anything Goes, Antigone, Vital Signs and Grey Gardens.

Hasson can also be seen in the DVD release of her first indie feature, God Bless America, written and directed by Bobcat Goldthwait, where she played Chloe.

I have uploaded 13 new episode stills of Maddie in the pilot episode of Twisted.

ABCFAMILY.GO.COM — Pretty Little Liars is about to get a new neighbor – one that’s full of can’t-miss twists and turns! The much-anticipated new ABC Family original series Twisted will premiere on Tuesday, June 11 at 9/8c – right after the summer premiere of Pretty Little Liars!

Twisted is centered on a charismatic 16-year-old with a troubled past (Avan Jogia) who has recently reconnected with his two female best friends from childhood (Maddie Hasson and Kylie Bunbury). He becomes the prime suspect when a fellow student is found dead in her home. The series also stars Kimberly Quinn, Sam Robards, Ashton Moio and Denise Richards.

With a smile stolen from Cameron Diaz and enough moxie to rival Jennifer Lawrence, Wilmington actress Maddie Hasson is ready for life in Los Angeles.

After a breakout role as Willa Monday on Fox drama “The Finder,” Hasson landed the role of Jo on “Twisted,” an ABC Family series that debuts this summer.

At 18, she has already walked the red carpet and been interviewed at press events. She’s mature, independent and driven.

When she was a 16-year-old actress on “The Finder,” costar Geoff Stults called her “the most mature actor on our set.”

She relished the mentoring she received from Stults, the late Michael Clarke Duncan and Mercedes Masöhn, who called Hasson “a spitfire.”

“Twisted,” which is set at a high school and stars Denise Richards, has a cast with more actors in Hasson’s age range.

In the show, a teen with a troubled past, Danny (Avan Jogia), returns to his hometown. He reconnects with his friends, but when a student is found dead, Danny is the prime suspect.

Hasson plays Jo, one of Danny’s best friends. The other is Lacey, played by Kylie Bunbury.

The chemistry of lifelong friends isn’t easy for strangers to replicate on the screen. So the stars spent a week in New York with director Jon Amiel creating a fictional backstory and some genuine bonds.

“We spent an entire week in the city with the director just improv-ing and getting the backstory down and rehearsing so it’d be like we’ve been together for years and years and years,” Hasson said during an interview at a local Port City Java. “It worked because I feel like I’ve known them my entire life.”
