Jenna Ortega has been a busy young lady with a career that’s less than five years old. Her credits are quite impressive: action (Iron Man 3), horror (Insidious: Chapter 2) films. A lot of television arcs on Rake, Richie Rich, the young Jane in Jane the Virgin, and the voice of Isabel in Disney’s new animated series, Elena of Avalor.

Her most exciting project, however, is the show that centers around her character Harley Diaz: Stuck in the Middle. Stuck is told through Harley’s point of view, and features the everyday life stories of a big family as this middle child devises creative ways to cope—and stand out—in her family’s busy suburban Massachusetts household. In addition to Jenna, the series stars Isaak Presley as Ethan Diaz; Ronni Hawk as Rachel Diaz; Kayla Maisonet as Georgie Diaz; Nicolas Bechtel as Lewie Diaz; Malachi Barton as “Beast” Diaz; Ariana Greenblatt as Daphne Diaz; Cerina Vincent as mom Suzy Diaz; and Joe Nieves (How I Met Your Mother) as dad Tom Diaz.

A group of us had the pleasure of sitting down and talking with Jenna about her present success and future plans. She was a delight. Now you can listen in on the conversation too.

Stuck in the Middle will begin in its regular time slot Friday, March 11 at 9P on Disney Channel.
