During a Netflix event for Season Four of “Stranger Things,” Priah talked to TODAY about how her experience as an older sister helped channel her role as Erica — annoyances and all.
"I’m very nerdy about history,” she said. “Like, I know my facts, like, you cannot tell me anything. I’m very nerdy when it comes to acting. Like, I have my facts about acting. And I’m also nerdy about nails, ‘cause I do nails a lot."Priah Ferguson plays Erica Sinclair on Netflix's "Stranger Things."Another part of Erica that resonates with Priah is her high level of confidence and her natural ability to lead.
“Erica is confident; she’s a leader,” she said. “I’m confident, and I’m also a leader. And I feel that she likes to explore, and I kinda like to explore.” Priah revealed that despite Erica’s attitude toward her big brother in the series, her character actually looks up to Lucas a great amount, contrary to what viewers think.
“I think with Erica, she is inspired by Lucas a little bit, and likes how his friendship is so strong,” Priah said. “Sometimes she kind of throws little jabs at him, but she doesn’t really mean it. She loves her brother, and that’s when people get a little confused.”
