Inventing Anna Fans Are Just Discovering Where They've Seen Actress Anna Chlumsky Before

We knew we recognised Vivian from somewhere!

If you've been glued to Shondaland drama Inventing Anna on Netflix, you might have noticed that Vivian Kent looks rather familiar.

Fans have just noticed that the actress who plays Vivian, Anna Chlumsky, also starred in one of our favourite 90s movies.

Yep, Anna also played Vada Sultenfuss in My Girl, a 1991 movie about an 11-year-old little girl whose mother sadly died during birth.

One person wrote on Twitter: "Vivian on #InventingAnna is the girlie from My Girl šŸ¤Æ."

While another said: "I was having a hard time figuring out where I saw Vivian fromā€¦ sheā€™s literally MY girl!"

And a third added: "The moment you realise Vivian Kent is the one from the movie 'My Girl'."

And a fifth added: "Watching #InventingAnna ā€¦ itā€™s CRAZY how @AnnaChlumsky still looks so similar to when she played Vada in my girl!!!!! I havenā€™t seen that movie in years and right away I was like 'thatā€™s the girl from my girl!'"

And a fifth commented: "I am watching #InventingAnna and am so happy Veda finally became a writer after My Girl 1 & 2. šŸ„²."
