And it seems like Home And Away newcomer Anna Cocquerel may already have her fair share of dramatic story lines, filming a series of intense scenes for the show on Tuesday.
The brunette beauty had to be rescued by her hunky male co-stars twice as she shot scenes, which showed her character nearly drowning while taking surfing lessons and then later collapsing on a set of stairs.
The day started out well enough with Anna and actress Brittany Santariga, who plays her sister on the show, heading down to Sydney's Palm Beach to shoot scenes.
The two on-screen siblings appeared to be getting surfing lessons from their hunky co-star Matt Little, who showed off his muscles while wearing just boardshorts.
Anna donned a blue wetsuit for the beach scene, wearing her long brown hair back in a ponytail.
Brittany looked equally beachy in a brightly-patterned string bikini, wearing her blonde locks up in a high bun.
Sibling rivalry was apparent as Brittany walked ahead of her Home And Away sister with Matt, all three clutching surfboards.
Once the trio made their way down to the sand, the girls set themselves up on the boards as Matt's character instructed them on surfing.
Anna's character appeared to be having lots of fun as the scene was shot, to falling off her board laughing several times.
But while Anna was rolling in the sand, Brittany looked more serious, lying on her board and appearing to glare at her on-screen sister.
Anna's antics seemed to do her no favours, with the actress looking forlorn as she remained on the beach while her Home And Away sister Brittany headed into the water with Matt.
Brittany stood by watching as Matt tried to revive Anna, later succeeding as the actress opened her eyes.
After the actors had finished filming the dramatic drowning scene, the trio could be seen walking up from the beach.
Brittany and Matt had donned a jacket and T-shirt as they left the beach, covering up in the less than warm temperatures.
But Anna's dramatic day of filming didn't end there, with the actress also filming scenes as she ran up a set of stairs.
Anna was in exercise mode, donning tracksuits and runners with her hair in a ponytail.
As the soap star runs down the stairs she feigns collapsing for the cameras, slumping on a rail.
As Anna slumped on a railing, another newcomer Jake Ryan suddenly appeared on the scene, rushing down the stairs and catching the actress.
Jake, who has also filmed scenes getting intimate with Pia Miller, pulls out his mobile and appears to phone for help.
Anna and Brittany will be appearing on episodes of Home And Away from June this year as members of a new Summer Bay family, fan website Back To The Bay reports.
