15!!Tropes found in Victoria Pedretti's work:
16* BrokenBird: Plays a lot of these.
17* CastingGag: She has a role in ''Shirley'', which is about author Shirley Jackson; she had of course played a loose version of Shirley's character Nell in ''Hill House''.
18* DyeHard:[[invoked]] She's brunette in ''Hill House'' and blonde in ''Bly Manor'' and ''You''.
19* HugeGuyTinyGirl: At around 5'4, most of her love interests tend to tower over her.
20* LargeHam: She's expressive, energetic and has an extensive theater background, so any of her roles are prone to ChewingTheScenery (particularly in the ''Haunting'' shows).
21* NiceGirl: Many of her roles have seen her play kind, good-natured and charming characters. [[AffablyEvil Even the ones who are evil are often outwardly friendly]].
22* PlayingAgainstType:[[invoked]] Normally cast as sympathetic {{Broken Bird}}s (see above), she starred as a member of the Manson Family in ''Film/OnceUponATimeInHollywood''.
23* StarMakingRole:[[invoked]] Everyone knew who she was when ''Series/TheHauntingOfHillHouse2018'' premiered.
24* TypeCasting:[[invoked]] She has a twin brother who's an addict in both ''Hill House'' and ''{{Series/You}}''.
25* UnderageCasting:[[invoked]] She was only 22 playing the 30-year-old Nell in ''Hill House''. Although most of Nellie's adult scenes happen in flashbacks years before her death, so this isn't too glaring. But notably, Oliver Jackson-Cohen plays her twin brother Luke despite being nine years older (although in his case him looking older could be justified due to Luke's drug addiction).
26* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
27** She was attached to star as Alice Sebold, author of ''Literature/TheLovelyBones'', in a film adaptation of Sebold's memoir ''Lucky''. However, she dropped out and the film was subsequently shelved after the man convicted of raping Sebold (a major subject of the memoir) was exonerated in 2021.
28** She was set to star in Hulu's series ''Saint X'' but left the project in 2022 due to CreativeDifferences.
