Two Brothers, One Girl - Cast Roles

Company Overview

In Case You Missed It (ICYMI Productions) is a New York-based production company

Project Overview

The story is set in the fictional town of Belmont Bay and follows Abby Lawson, a guarded, bookish beauty navigating high school after loss and heartbreak. She's caught between two brothers: Cooper, the golden boy ex-boyfriend whose charm hides something uglier, and Knox, the rebellious older brother who's carried quiet feelings for her since childhood. What looks like a second-chance romance on the surface turns into something darker as Cooper's true motives surface and the family's fractures come into full view. Think "She's All That" meets vertical drama with real stakes.

Role Breakdowns

LEADS

Abby Lawson Female, 18-22 | $350-$500/day (est. 8 days) Playing high school age. Picture the Rachael Leigh Cook archetype from "She's All That." Beautiful without realizing it. Bookish, unassuming, the type of girl who turns heads without trying and has no idea she's doing it. She carries real emotional wounds and keeps people at arm's length because of them. Guarded, careful, but quietly determined underneath the walls she's built. This role may involve intimate scenes and/or physical stunt work. Qualified coordinators will be present for both, and everything will be discussed and consented to in advance.

Cooper Beckett Male, 18-25 | $350-$500/day (est. 8 days) Playing high school age. Belmont Bay's golden boy. Star of the football team. Abby's ex. On the surface he looks like the genuine, good-hearted brother trying to earn a second chance. That's the mask. Underneath, his ego runs everything. He's using Abby as a pawn to keep his brother Knox from getting close to her. The performance needs to sell the charm completely in the early episodes so the villain reveal actually lands. This role may involve intimate scenes and/or stunt work with coordinators on set.

Knox Beckett Male, 18-26 | $350-$500/day (est. 8 days) Playing high school age. The older Beckett brother and the family's black sheep. Rebellious, rough around the edges, carrying a reputation he didn't entirely earn. He's been in love with Abby since they were kids but always respected her relationship with Cooper and never made a move. He's a yearner in the truest sense. He blames himself for his mother leaving and wears that guilt like a second skin. Underneath the tough exterior, he's hurting deeply and looking for something real. This role may involve intimate scenes and/or stunt work with coordinators present.

Mr. Dave Beckett Male, 45-60 | $300-$400/day (est. 6 days) Father to Cooper and Knox. Was best friends with Abby's father before he passed, and has always treated her like a daughter of his own. He means well but he's often absent because of work, which leaves gaps in the family that his sons fill in their own destructive ways. This role may involve intimate scenes and/or stunt work with coordinators present.

SUPPORTING

Justine Collins Female, 18-23 | $250-$350/day (est. 6 days) Playing high school age. The mean girl, fully committed to the role. Cooper cheated on Abby with her, and now Justine's fixated on making Abby's life miserable. She's not subtle about it. This is aggressive, relentless bullying driven by jealousy and spite. This role may involve intimate scenes and/or stunt work with coordinators on set.

Kat Female, 18-23 | $250-$350/day (est. 6 days) Playing high school age. A self-described nerd who writes for the school newspaper and lives for a good investigative story. She befriends Abby on her first day and becomes a genuine ally. Brings warmth and comic energy to balance the heavier storylines. This role may involve intimate scenes and/or stunt work with coordinators present.

Crissy Female, 18-23 | $250-$350/day (est. 6 days) Playing high school age. One of Justine's loyal followers in the mean girl circle. This role may involve intimate scenes and/or stunt work with coordinators on set.

Brittney Female, 18-23 | $250-$350/day (est. 6 days) Playing high school age. The other half of Justine's sidekick duo. This role may involve intimate scenes and/or stunt work with coordinators present.

DAY PLAYERS

Swim Team Coach (Female, 40-55) | $250/day (est. 2 days) No-nonsense, blunt, tough love approach. The kind of coach who says exactly what she's thinking and doesn't soften the delivery.

Principal (Male, 45-60) | $250/day (est. 2 days) Overworked and fed up. All business, no warmth. Running on fumes and zero patience.

Detective Clark (Male, 35-50) | $250/day (est. 2 days) A cut above the local sheriff in every way. More polished, more serious, clearly operating at a higher level. He's handling the cases that matter, and he carries himself accordingly.
