However, there is a notable difference in that the character’s mother died when she was still a child in the books, with the result that she became more independent at an earlier age. In short, the character’s mother was dead in the source material and is indeed dead in the show. Nancy Drew’s relationship with her parents is where the big changes start becoming notable.

Never mind how the show material has used more than one hair color.Īge-wise, the version presented in the show is pretty close. There are people who have argued about whether the actress’s hair is the right shade or not to be called “titian hair.” However, even if it isn’t, this is minor enough that it cannot be considered a major difference between the show and the source material. Due to this, the writers decided to just go with that rather than get too stressed out about the discrepancies, thus resulting in what is now an iconic look for the character.

Appearance-wise, Nancy Drew tends to be seen as a redhead. However, there are some differences, which in turn, contribute to a very different story.
