Pettyjohn Fire Country
In the Fire Country drama series on CBS Originals, she plays Riley Leone.Bode’s younger sister Riley Leone, the late daughter of Vince and Sharon, passed away in a vehicle accident following Jake’s breakup. Riley grew close to Eve when she was nine years old; Eve’s family had recently relocated to Edgewater.
Riley had a birthday celebration at Smokey’s Tavern with her family and close friends. Recalling their first meeting, she said that Riley had marched across the street, introduced herself, and requested Eve to be her best friend when they were nine years old. Riley turned to face Bode at that point and told him how proud she was of him following a difficult year marked by drug abuse, baseball injuries, and treatment.
Riley’s jubilant attitude immediately vanished as Jake ended their relationship. She didn’t want to tell anyone until things got serious, but Jake was not serious about them at all. Bode was outraged, but she pleaded with him not to tell anybody.
Little Fires Everywhere
In Little Fires Everywhere on Hulu, she plays Lexie Richardson. Lexie is constantly under pressure from her mother to be flawless, which drives her to strive for perfection. Senior high school student Lexie appropriates Pearl’s narrative of being turned away from a more advanced math class because the admissions teacher made snap decisions. Her boyfriend, who is also black, is upset and thinks it’s improper that she took the article.
On their homecoming night, Lexie had sex with him to stop the argument from getting worse. Pearl, who goes with her to an abortion facility, finds out that she is pregnant. Lexie uses Pearl’s name on the paperwork she needs to fill out out of fear that the narrative will be revealed. The misappropriation of Pearl’s name hurts her, but she takes Lexie with her. When Lexie questions her mother Mia about whether or not she made the correct choice, Mia calls her a spoilt brat.
Lexie is always put together flawlessly. She has a sweet face, reminiscent of a baby doll, but occasionally comes across as a little snooty. Her blonde hair, cropped little above her shoulders and perfectly styled to curl around her neck, accentuates her blue eyes. Her clean-cut, well-considered style is preppy, girly, and slightly flirtatious. Her look is a perfect representation of her mother.
Big Sky
Jade plays Grace Sullivan, a teen girl who was kidnapped by a human trafficker along with her sister in ABC drama series Big Sky. While traveling to see their boyfriend, Justin Hoyt, Grace and her sister Danielle almost got hit by a truck. Ronald found them, gave them a tase, and put them in a storage container with chains around their legs. Using Danielle to entice Ronald to take off their leg chains and singing together for emotional survival, they made plans for their survival.
Grace told Jerrie and Danielle to clean out the infected wounds on her legs. Ronald abandoned them to handle the matter, leaving them with a fever.Grace assisted in locating the body of the fisherman who had killed them during Cody’s burial. They discovered Jerrie, another victim covered in plastic, and began CPR. With a tease comb, Jerrie was stabbed in the neck. In order to emotionally survive, Grace and Danielle intended to use Danielle as a pawn to entice Ronald to take off their leg restraints and sing along. Among the many difficulties they encountered were being taken hostage by Legarski, getting stuck in a truck, and having their gender identity revealed.
Jade Pettyjohn School of Rock
She portrayed Summer Hathaway in the School of Rock television series on Nickelodeon. One of the primary characters on School of Rock is Summer Breeze Hathaway. She attends William B. Travis Prep School and manages the School of Rock band.
She eventually rises to the position of manager after realizing she can use her organizational abilities to support the band, as she is not content to just play tambourine in the group. Until Total Eclipse of the Heart, Summer harbored feelings for Freddy. Since the band was meant to be losing their drummer in the Season 3 premiere, Hold on Loosely, Summer took a few lessons from Mr. Finn and learned how to play the drums beautifully.
Summer is an overachiever who breezes through coursework, organization, and perfect attendance. She has a tendency to put others before herself, much like McKenna Daugherty in her beloved novel “Terminal Heart.” She’d be an excellent band manager because of this! Summer always has her closest buddy Tomika to help her stay grounded since she is always ready for anything that can happen. When it comes to the band and her friends’ wild ideas, she is incredibly innovative and assertive. She’s finally learning to take some chances in the sake of rock ‘n’ roll thanks to the band!
