Lead roles

Cast Lead

Carl

The husband

A man fresh out of 30 days of sex addiction therapy, returning home ready to rebuild his life and his marriage — only to find his world turned upside down the moment he walks through the door.

Official cast announcement coming soon.
Cast Lead

Francis

The wife

Carl's wife — confident, creative, and in the middle of her moment. Starring in a film at their own home, juggling an eccentric director and a jealous co-star, completely unaware of the chaos about to walk through her front door.

Official cast announcement coming soon.
Cast Lead

Perri

The film director

Eccentric, passionate, and a little too hands-on. Perri is the kind of director who blurs every line in the name of art — and becomes the last person Carl expected to find in his living room.

Cast Lead

Robyn

The lead actress

Fiercely competitive and watching Francis's every move. Robyn has her own agenda on set — and Carl's arrival only makes things more complicated.

Official cast announcement coming soon.
