Keith Powers as Jordan Wilder: A troubled star who lands the role of the other point in the movie's famous love triangle. He and Rainer have a complicated history which is further heightened by the fact that both share a past with Tangey.
Pepi Sonuga as Tangey Turner: Tangey is a pop star with a controlling mother who was previously romantically connected with both Jordan Wilder and Rainer Devon, one of them as a love affair, which caused lots of drama and tension.
