Ravenswood - Merritt Patterson to takeover Elizabeth Whitson's role

Share on Reddit

Model Elizabeth Whitson, originally cast to play one of the lead roles Olivia, is departing Ravenswood, while actress Merritt Patterson, originally set to play Olivia's former best friend Tess, will take over Whitson's part, The Hollywood Reporter has learned exclusively.

The character of Olivia is described as a former prom queen who is struggling with a recent fall from grace. Olivia used to be carefree and effortlessly happy, but recent events have left her questioning what’s truly important.

Brett Dier will continue on as Olivia's twin brother Luke with other regulars Nicole Gale Anderson, Britne Oldford and Pretty Little Liars' Tyler Blackburn transitioning onto the new show following the Halloween special. A replacement for Patterson's former role has yet to be cast.

"As we dug deeper into the mythology of Ravenswood we decided to re-conceive the character of Olivia. Merritt Patterson seemed to be the best choice for the direction the character is now headed," executive producers for Ravenswood said in a joint statement exclusive to THR.
