Peacock's Vampire Academy Series Sets Main Cast, Directors

Peacock has announced the full cast for its upcoming adaptation of the popular YA book series Vampire Academy, which was greenlit earlier this year. In a release, Sisi Stringer (Mortal Kombat) was named as leading an expansive ensemble for the streaming show--which doesn't yet have a firm release date. Julie Plec, who co-developed and worked extensively on the CW's The Vampire Diaries, will help as showrun, write, executive produce, and director on the upcoming series. A synopsis for the series is as follows: "St. Vladmir's Academy isn't just any boarding school--it's a hidden place where vampire royals are educated and half-human teens train to protect them from the savage 'Strigoi' vampires who would like to see them destroyed." Here are the newly announced characters, straight from the release: * Sisi Stringer (Mortal Kombat) will play Rose Hathaway, a vampire-human hybrid known as a Dhampir. Fiery and outspoken, Rose is a true fighter in spirit and in practice. She always jumps into action, and more often than not, this results in demerits. * Daniela Nieves (Sex Appeal, Five Points) will play Lissa Dragomir, a Royal Moroi vampire. Growing up the younger sister to the heir apparent, Princess Vasilisa Dragomir is a carefree, kind-hearted, royal princess coasting through her studies and happily chasing fun. * Kieron Moore (Masters of the Air, Sex Education) will play Dimitri Belikov, the model of a Dhampir guardian: lethal, disciplined, discreet, and totally committed to his role as bodyguard to the ruling Moroi, the "good," mortal vampires of his world. * André Dae Kim (Degrassi, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds) will play Christian Ozera, a Royal Moroi vampire. Intelligent and thoughtful, Christian is the pariah of the school and royal court, due to his parents' unforgivable societal sins. * J. August Richards (Angel, Generation) will play Victor Dashkov. Victor is a Moroi noble vampire with a heart of gold who's highly regarded for his role as advisor and political strategist to Moroi dignitaries. * Anita-joy Uwajeh (West End's Cyrano de Bergerac and King Lear), will play Tatiana Vogel. Tatiana is a Moroi vampire and political underdog who slowly takes the royal court by storm. * Mia Mckenna-bruce (West End's Billy Elliot The Musical, The Dumping Ground) will play Mia Karp, a student at St. Vladimir's Academy. Witty, cutting, and just the right kind of ruthless when necessary, non-Royal Mia has a long-term plan to social climb her way into the ranks of royalty, with all the privilege and freedom that entails. * Rhian Blundell (Torchwood: Believe, Doctor Who: The Dread of Night) will play Meredith, a smart, strong-willed Dhampir who is a keen observer, which makes her an excellent strategist and a valuable asset. She has little patience for Rose's volatility or Mia's elitism, and regularly calls both of them out. * Jonetta Kaiser (Tales, Breakwater) will play Sonya Karp. Quiet, careful and decidedly odd, Sonya is not of royal bloodline and sits out on the fringe of Moroi society, preferring to spend her time in the library or her gardens. * Andrew Liner (Grown-ish) will play Mason Ashford. Charming, loyal and popular, Mason is Rose's main competition in the quest to become the number one Guardian-in-training. Though their relationship is casual on her side, he is hopeful she will finally look at him and see him as something more. In addition to Plec, Marguerite MacIntyre (The Vampire Diaries) will showrun, write, and executive produce. Also, the show's upcoming directors will include Bille Woodruff (Black Lightning), Luis Prieto (White Lines), Jesse Warn (Supergirl), Erica Dunton (Dolly Parton's Heartstrings), and Geoff Shotz (Charmed).Continue Reading at GameSpot
