Lana Condor praised her co-star Anna Cathcart and newcomer Lola Tung as they take over the Jenny Han TV universe.

On Cathcart: The 20-year-old Cathcart, who portrays Kitty, the younger sister of Condor’s character Lara Jean in the "To All the Boys" film franchise, is now the lead star of the spinoff series "XO, Kitty."

When asked by Today.com whether she has any advice for Cathcart, Condor said, "I don’t really have any advice for Anna because I think that she’s just so successful. She’s so smart, she’s so prepared all the time. She doesn’t need my advice, she’s crushing it.

Condor further described Cathcart as “one of the strongest women I know” and emphasized the importance of "surround[ing] yourself by good people" on the rise to fame.
