Move over, Marcus Baker! There’s a new skateboarding love interest in Ginny & Georgia Season 3, and no, we’re not talking about Wolfe!
The highly-anticipated third season of Sarah Lampert’s Netflix drama premiered on Thursday, June 5, and in addition to returning Ginny & Georgia characters like Ginny (Antonia Gentry), Georgia (Brianne Howey), Austin (Diesel La Torraca), Marcus (Felix Mallard), Maxine (Sara Waisglass), Paul (Scott Porter), Zion (Nathan Mitchell), Joe (Raymond Ablack), and more, Season 3 welcomed several fresh faces to the cast, including Ty Doran and Noah Lamanna.
Wolfe (Doran) plays a new love interest in Ginny’s poetry class. While Lamanna joins the series as Tris, a skateboarder/tutor who grows close with one of Ginny’s close friends.
So who is Tris on Ginny & Georgia? And what do we know about Noah Lamanna, the actor who plays Tris? Without major Season 3 spoilers, here’s what Ginny & Georgia fans need to know about newcomers Noah and Tris.
We first see Tris at the skatepark hanging with Marcus and Silver in Season 3, Episode 2. When Max expresses concern that Marcus is smoking more than usual, her friend Abby (Katie Douglas) walks over to him to grab a cigarette and investigate. That’s when she meets Tris, who quickly skates away and shows off their shredding skills.
In Season 3, Episode 4, Abby’s mom has a heart-to-heart with her, acknowledges that she’s been struggling since her dad left, and tells her she’s getting a peer tutor. The tutor? None other than Tris! As the season progresses and the two have more tutoring sessions, they inevitably get to know each other better and grow closer. Ginny & Georgia Season 3 shows Abby navigating her mom and dad’s divorce, her disordered eating, her changing friend group, her sexuality, and the heavy emotions that come along with those things. So she finds comfort in her new connection with Tris.
Do Abby and Tris take their relationship further than a friendship? You’ll have to tune in to find out. In the meantime, let’s learn more about Noah Lamanna, the actor who plays Tris on Ginny & Georgia, shall we?
