She is set to star in the survival thriller Borrego, written and directed by Jesse Harris. Scheduled for release on Friday, January 14, the movie follows Lucy Hale’s character, Elly, a botanist captured by a drug mule after his plane crashed in the Borrego desert.
Lucy Hale and Nicholas Gonzales, who shared the screen in the popular television series Pretty Little Liars, are reuniting for the 2022 American survival-crime-thriller film Borrego.
In a Monday interview with Extra, the 32-year-old actress spoke about her upcoming film, and her take on the HBO Max reboot of Pretty Little Liars.
“There’s a lot of heart to it, and there’s a lot of pain to it,” she said of the film, adding that she read the script three years ago and knew it would challenge her “physically, definitely emotionally, and mentally.”
“The first day, I ran up this canyon because we shoot out of sequence, and I pulled a quad muscle.”
“It was just challenging, and it was so rewarding though, at the end of it, I was on the verge of a breakdown, but I was like, ‘We did it,’ and I’m really proud of it.”

Ready to participate in the PLL reboot, Lucy jokingly said she was waiting for a phone call. “I’m open to any idea of that, but I’m not involved in any way other than just being genuinely excited and curious about what they’re doing.”
She added, “I’m just always a supporter of fellow actors. I keep saying I think people want me to be upset that there’s a reboot, but, like, that’s just never going to happen because it’s so hard to get things made and to get cast and things, and I genuinely hope it’s great for them.”
“It’s flattering they want to do a reboot, in my opinion,” she continued.
