Bio & Early Life

Anna Cathcart was born on June 16, 2003, in Vancouver, Canada, and from a young age, she gave off big-screen energy. With a Chinese mother and Irish father, her blended background and bubbly personality made her stand out even before the acting gigs rolled in.

She was just 13 when she hit screens as Dizzy Tremaine in Disney’s Descendants 2, playing the quirky daughter of Drizella from Cinderella. But it was Netflix’s To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before trilogy that put her on Gen Z’s radar. Playing Kitty Covey, the nosy but lovable little sister, she became a scene-stealer.

Despite fame, Anna kept it grounded—attending public school, doing homework in trailers, and navigating early success without letting it take over her life. She’s known for being humble, funny, and incredibly smart (you’ll catch her referencing history or reading obscure trivia between scenes).

Anna is also one of the rare Disney-to-Netflix crossover queens who didn’t lose herself in the spotlight. Instead, she leaned into her inner nerd and took her time stepping into lead roles—until XO, Kitty gave her the moment she deserved.

Career

Anna Cathcart kicked off her career with Odd Squad, a Canadian educational series that gave her her first taste of fame—and math jokes. From there, she hit the Disney jackpot as Dizzy Tremaine in Descendants 2 and 3, a role that let her bring high-energy, costume-core magic to life.

But it was Kitty Covey in To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before that made her a Gen Z icon. Despite being a supporting character, Anna’s performance as the meddling, brilliant little sister totally stole the spotlight. So much so that Netflix built an entire spin-off, XO, Kitty, around her.

XO, Kitty follows her character’s adventures in Korea as she tries to follow love—and ends up finding herself instead. It’s a heartwarming mix of international vibes, coming-of-age chaos, and Kitty’s signature boldness. With this show, Anna proved she could carry a series all on her own. And she did.

She’s also done voice work (Star Wars: Visions, Once Upon a Time), appeared in indie shorts, and is slowly building a brand that’s part wholesome, part hilarious, and totally Gen Z.

In interviews, she’s talked openly about representation, staying true to herself, and avoiding the pressure to “grow up fast” like so many child stars do. Her brainy, down-to-earth vibe makes her a favorite among fans who are over the Hollywood machine.

With a strong fanbase, critical respect, and a clear love for storytelling, Anna’s got serious staying power. The roles may grow, but her quirky, grounded energy is forever.

Love Life & Relationships

Anna Cathcart has been very private about her love life—and honestly, we respect it. While fans have speculated about on-screen chemistry with co-stars like Choi Min-young (XO, Kitty), there’s no official word on her dating anyone IRL.

In a few interviews, she’s hinted at being “way more focused on school and scripts than boys,” which totally tracks with her vibe. She’s also mentioned how intense fans can be when they ship her with co-stars, but she’s handled it with humor and maturity.

Right now, Anna seems single, thriving, and putting energy into her craft, friendships, and future. It’s refreshing in a world where everyone’s relationship status feels like public property. Gen Z loves a soft launch—but they love boundaries even more.

Celebrity Squad

Anna’s celeb circle is low-key but legit. She’s tight with her To All the Boys fam, especially Lana Condor, who’s shouted her out as a little sister figure IRL. She also bonded with her XO, Kitty cast in Korea, including Sang Heon Lee and Choi Min-young, with tons of wholesome behind-the-scenes content. She’s not an LA party girl, though. You’re more likely to find her at book signings, film fests, or bingeing Netflix in fuzzy socks with her real-life besties. Her squad isn’t about clout—it’s about comfort.

Hobbies & Passions

Anna Cathcart is a full-blown creativity nerd. When she’s not acting, she’s writing short stories, journaling, or creating mini films just for fun. She’s a self-proclaimed movie junkie and loves editing her own content—even on iMovie. She’s also a big fan of thrifting, Pinterest mood-boarding, and making playlists for imaginary characters. Like, she is the aesthetic. She’s talked about wanting to direct one day, or maybe write a script that brings her culture, humor, and awkward teen energy to life in a real, honest way. Anna’s also into advocacy—especially around Asian representation in media and mental health awareness. She’s done panels, spoken at events, and uses her platform to amplify voices without making it all about herself. Quiet leadership? We see you.
