Bosworth plays Heidi in the film, stepmom to teenager Auden and new mom of an infant.
More than a few movies and TV shows paint stepmothers in a negative light.
She also noted how much of her own experience as a stepmother informed the character.

She’s 24 years old."
“I feel like there [are] so many blended families today.
AndHeidi does just that for Auden.

Hi, I’m Kate.
So nice to meet you.'”
So much of that I put into Heidi.

She’s a new mom, so she’s barely getting any sleep.
It’s great to see a well-intentioned stepmom on screen who wants the best for her stepdaughter.
“Along for the Ride"is now streaming on Netflix.
