The Wise Advice Sterling K. Brown Gave Eris Baker on This Is Us: "Never Quit"
This Is Us became a near-instant success when it first premiered back in 2016, and the cast has certainly felt it. Not only is it one of the most beloved shows in America at the moment, but it's also swept up countless awards, including Emmys, SAG trophies, and Critics' Choice Television Awards. While the ride has been exhilarating for the show's leads, it has been just as crazy for its younger cast members.
We recently had a chance to talk with Eris Baker, the 12-year-old actress who plays Tess, and she admitted that the whole thing has been like a dream come true. "At 12 years old and to be getting my own SAG Award, that's what people would dream of, and [it's] such a blessing," she said. "I'm so thankful just to be a part of the show. It has given me so many opportunities and so much love, personally, and it's just a blessing to be a part of it."
Not to mention, Baker has an incredible group of costars to work alongside. While the entire cast is incredibly talented, Baker admits she really looks up to her onscreen dad, Sterling K. Brown. "He's just amazing," she gushed. "He's such a nice person. His family is the nicest family I have ever met, and he's huge right now - winning SAG Awards, multiple of them, and Emmys. Just God bless him. He's doing his thing, and he's just a star."
In true Randall Pearson form, Brown has also given Baker some solid advice during their time on set: never give up. "In between takes, Sterling will mess up or Susan [Kelechi Watson] will mess up, and me and Faithe [Herman] will mess up and they'll be like, 'Never quit. It's OK because you're not a robot,'" she said. "'You're not going to say it right or memorize it multiple times. You're going to mess up, so just never quit.'"
Well, there you have it: the Pearson family is just as adorable off screen as they are on the show.
