From the producers behind Netflix's The Kissing Booth comes a new romantic comedy based on a hit WattPad story, My Life with the Walter Boys. The series introduces us to 15-year-old Jackie, but what is the age of actress Nikki Rodriguez in real life?
How Old is Nikki Rodriguez?
It's not uncommon for Hollywood stars to play characters that don't share their actual age and My Life with the Walter Boys' Jackie is no different.
In the series, Jackie had to leave her Manhattan life behind and move to Colorado. The 15-year-old's life has changed drastically overnight (or at least how the trailer teases it).
Jackie might be a 15-year-old girl in the series, but is the actress, Nikki Rodriguez, also in her teens, too?
Nikki Rodriguez is no longer in her teens and the up-and-coming actress' age is 20. She was born on December 17, 2002, in Los Angeles, California but despite being five years older than her character, she still looks the part of Jackie the high schooler.
After all, Joey King was 20 years old when she played the 17-year-old main star of The Kissing Booth franchise, Elle.
Nikki Rodriguez Previously Starred in a Netflix Series
You'd probably be surprised that despite being a newcomer in the scene, Nikki Rodriguez has already starred in another Netflix series. Before My Life with the Walter Boys, Rodriguez starred in the series, On My Block.
Nikki played the character Vero in On My Block Season 4, a supporting role but now, she gets to lead her own series.

What is My Life with the Walter Boys About?
My Life with the Walter Boys tells the story of Jackie having to move forward with her life after losing her parents. Similar to The Kissing Booth's story, Jackie has to adjust to her new life in Colorado along with learning what true love is.
The official synopsis for My Life with the Walter Boys reads:
After losing her family in a tragic accident, 15-year-old Jackie is forced to leave her privileged Manhattan life and move in with a large, boisterous family in rural Colorado, where she becomes entangled in a love triangle between two brothers.
Episodes of My Life with the Walter Boys start streaming on Netflix on December 7th.
