"When searching for our Freddie, Sam came into the room with a grounded, eccentric, and timeless character encompassing all of Freddie's wonder, heart, and artistry," Dorfman gushed. "It was clear from that moment that she was the right person to bring this story to life."
As for Ava, she's just as excited about her new role. She took to Instagram Stories to share the news, posting a screenshot of the THR article with the caption: "IT'S HAPPENING! Can't wait to break your hearts @tommydorfmann @sammorelos". And let's just say her friends are just as stoked!
"Ready for you on the screen diva!", wrote one fan. "Yay Ava!! gonna be so good<3", chimed in another.

And who knows, maybe Ava will follow in her mom's footsteps and become the next big thing in Hollywood.
