Laura Osnes is a two-time Tony Award nominee for her performances on Broadway in Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella and Bonnie & Clyde and the winner of the role of “Sandy” in the 2007 NBC reality series Grease: You're the One That I Want! She’s appeared on PBS’ A Capitol Fourth three times. In recent years, though, she has become known for her roles in family-friendly romantic comedies. She has a lead role in Just In Time, a new movie on Great American Pure Flix that Candace Cameron Bure executive produced.

She told Crosswalk Headlines: “I've just been so grateful for God's guidance. I feel like my life verse is Proverbs 3:5-6. And it's, ‘In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct your path.’ And I feel like as I have tried to acknowledge God in my career, He has closed doors, even when I thought that I wanted them open. And then He has opened other doors and He has just guided my path."

In Just In Time, Osnes portrays a woman who is involved in a strained marital relationship. The story is unique in that it involves a husband and a woman; most movies in that genre spotlight first-time live.
