Young adult cast announced for Augustina
KAYLEE - Ellie Bindman
We are delighted to announce that talented young actress Ellie Bindman is to play our lead character, Kaylee. This is a demanding and challenging role with the character of Kaylee being a withdrawn, shy and awkward girl who has witnessed an abusive relationship. Kaylee is in every scene and it's her emotive journey that we follow throughout the story.
GEMMA - Sasha Desouza Willock
Accomplished actress Sasha Desouza Willock is playing the character of Gemma, Kaylee's best friend. Gemma's thoughts don't come with a filter. Naive, funny without meaning to be and in a constant state of awe, the character of Gemma brings a touch of light to the dark world.
DEAN - Jayden Revri
Skilled actor Jayden Revri is playing the character of Dean, a young man who is attracted to Kaylee. Dean has a bit of an ego and rep to uphold with his mates and at first glance is a bit of a classic lad, cocky and fearless. But Dean is at the crossroads between being a young man and still just a kid and as a result there are flashes of insecurity and child-like behaviour that come to the surface.
We are thrilled to be working with these very talented young actors who are perfect for the roles. You will be hearing more about them during the shoot!
In other news, we are currently finalising casting on the adult roles and will announce as soon as they are in place.
