Natalie (21)
Jessie Sherman
“Fame” by MGM / “Much Ado about nothing” by Lionsgate / “Modern Mabel” - modernmom.com / “TMI” at Second City / “Google” (TVCM)

Rebellious 'poor little rich girl'. Junior year UCLA student. Grew up in a rich and conservative Beverly Hills family with a personal driver and pretty much everything she could ask for. After she starts seeing her boyfriend, her life completely changes. She parties all night drinking and using drugs. She does not go to school and fails most of her classes.

Charlie(50)
Tony Cronin
“Transformers 3” by Paramount Pictures / “Horrible Bosses” by Warner Bros. / “Sunset Hotel” by Fox TV

Natalie’s father. Conservative looking businessman. Always wears a suit. Charlie loves his daughter more than anything but can seem stern/old fashioned in his approach to child rearing. Strict but kind. He tries his best to fix Natalie’s bad behavior but always fails. Eventually he attempts something extraordinary.

Anna (46)
Palmer Davis
“CSI: New York”, “CSI: Las Vegas” by CBS / Tom Hanks' "That Thing You Do" / "The New Muppet Movie"

Natalie’s mother. Always looks pristine, very well kept and wears nothing but expensive designer clothes. Typical Beverly Hills housewife. Loves her daughter very much but can seem a little strict at times. Anna was exactly like Natalie when she was in college and she doesn’t want to push her too hard on this matter.

Ray (50)
Michael Benard
“the tonight show jay leno” by NBC / “Judging Amy” by 20th century fox / “Paradise” by Disney Channel / “General Hospital” by ABC

Dara (46)
Kimberly Jurgen
“Bones” by FOX / “All About April” by New Media / Kidnap and Rescue by Discovery Channel / Spraypaint by DIY Network

Dara is an extremely kind, warm-hearted woman without a bad bone in her body. She is a committed wife to Ray. Sweet and caring. She feels a little lonely and isolated living at the ranch since Philip left.

Philip (26)
Ruben Navarro
“Director of “In Tunes with You” winner of Long Island International Film Expo / Edited “Underprivileged” winner of Beverly Hills Film Festivals

Typical American boy, tall and looks like he could handle himself in a fight. Had a great childhood for the most part, brought up on a ranch but moved to the city for a girl and lost touch with his parents who are good people but a little old fashioned and stubborn. He feels sorry for his parents.

Rebecca (26)
Nanci Bogart
“Ladies First” by Samedy Khun / "Interactive Pilates" by Alexandra Yerike

Rebecca used to be mean and nasty at school, but she is very settled after she gets married with Philip. She is a very loyal wife to Philip, and she understands perfectly what Philip is trying to do. She is the one to convince Philip to go back to Ray and Dara.
