It’s heartwarming to hear the continued admiration and affection the cast of Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants still holds for one another nearly 20 years after the film’s release. Actress Nancy Travis, who played Lydia Rodman, recently reflected on her experience with the film and praised her co-stars—America Ferrera, Blake Lively, Amber Tamblyn, and Alexis Bledel—during an interview with People magazine.
Travis, now 63, expressed admiration for the cast’s talent, stating, “The women in Sisterhood were fantastic,” and also acknowledged the impressive trajectories of their careers. She emphasized how rewarding it’s been to watch them evolve professionally over the years.
The actress fondly remembered the filming experience, describing it as “warm,” a rarity in Hollywood, and spoke candidly about the challenges of the industry. “It’s good to be able to have more [good] experiences,” she said, highlighting the positive energy that surrounded the making of the movie.
The film, released in 2005, was not just a success because of its cast but also thanks to a remarkable ensemble that included Michael Rady, Ernie Lively, and Bradley Whitford, among others.
In a similar vein, Ferrera spoke earlier this year about the lasting bond between the four lead actresses. She shared with People that they’ve maintained a “Sisterhood text” for over two decades, even marking milestones like marriages and children together. Ferrera fondly reflected on how they’ve supported each other through the ups and downs of life, further solidifying their enduring friendship.
It’s beautiful to see how Sisterhood continues to be a testament to both the personal and professional connections that have only strengthened over time.
