"We're colorful and contradict ourselves," 'A Million Little Things' Christina Ochoa on playing bold women

Christina shares with us her insights on what makes AMLT different from all the other friendship dramas, and how even in the current climate - she is optimistic about Hollywood.

ABC's new drama, 'A Million Little Things' is set to premiere on Wednesday. A classic buddy-drama revolving around friendship, love, support and tight bonds, the show highlights how a suicide affects those near and dear to the deceased.

Working along the basic mantra of "everything happens for a reason," the show - starring  David Giuntoli, Ron Livingston, Romany Malco, Allison Miller, Christina Moses, Christina Ochoa, James Roday, Grace Park, Stéphanie Szostak and Lizzy Greene - is about a search for the reason behind one of their friends' suicide. 

As expected, there are dark secrets and twisted truths leading up to what looks like a promising season ahead, and as cast member Christina Ochoa would like to assure us, despite being compared to hit shows like 'This Is Us', she feels the comparison in itself is a big win for those involved with AMLT. In a candid chat, the Spanish actress who has also excelled as an author and as a marine biologist, shares with us her insights on what makes AMLT different from all the other popular friendship dramas, and how even in the current climate - she is optimistic about Hollywood.
