Sweetin Reunites with Fuller House Co-Stars

Jodie Sweetin is taking on a new role in the vertTV microdrama Finding Hope, collaborating once again with familiar faces from Fuller House, Marla Sokoloff and John Brotherton. The series centers on Dr. Emily Harper, a successful city doctor who returns to her small hometown when her father falls ill. Sweetin expressed her enthusiasm for trying something new with a script she felt connected to, noting the exciting challenge of portraying a grounded character unlike her previous sitcom personas.

Sweetin embraces the opportunity to play Dr. Emily Harper, a role she described as a "Grey's Anatomy-type of story." This character is notably more serious and takes charge, navigating a complex personal life and a messy relationship. She also found the romantic arc with co-star John Brotherton, who previously played her on-screen stepbrother's love interest in Fuller House, to be a humorous and initially awkward experience. Finding Hope is now available on vertTV, allowing fans to enjoy this new project from the beloved cast.
