Grace Van Patten plays Zoe, a young woman who is visiting the centre with her parents after the family suffered a tremendous loss. Taking to Twitter, one person wrote: “This girl looks so much like Shailene Woodley it's tripping me out #NinePerfectStrangers,” while another added: “The next David E. Kelley x Nicole Kidman miniseries doesn't feature Shailene Woodley this time but they got pretty close with Grace Van Patten. #NinePerfectStrangers.”
