15. Chrissy Metz’s Character Is Based on a Real Person

Kate Pearson, played by Chrissy Metz, is actually based on a real person. The series’s creator, Dan Fogelman, says Kate is based off his sister and the relationship he has with her. Fogelman found his niche early on as a very successful writer, while his sister struggled to find her identity in the world. Although Metz has yet to meet the woman behind her character, she says the two of them recently became Facebook friends.
