Leo Sheng from “The L Word: Generation Q” will play Heath Ledger’s character Ennis. He took to Instagram to write: “I’m really looking forward to exploring what it means to have trans folks in these roles and the conversations it might inspire around casting and the nature/evolution of queer narratives!”
Brian Michael Smith from “911: Lone Star” will play Jack.
The cast also includes Jen Richards, Alexandra Grey, Mal Blum, Jes Tom, Mars Dixon, Theo Germaine, Jordan Gonzalez, Drew Gregory and Vico Ortiz.
