Here is the full list of cast from Cellar Door (2024):

1) Scott Speedman as John

Scott Speedman is a native of London, England, to Scottish parents but grew up in Toronto, Canada. Scott was an aggressive competitive swimmer in freestyle distance events until the end of his athletic dreams through an accident. His educational background includes Earl Haig High School and the University of Toronto from 1994 to 1996.

Speedman started his acting career after appearing in Speakers Corner out of a dare. Then came the audition for the Robin role in Batman Forever, which went to Chris O'Donnell, the film's eventual lead and the one who broke most of the hearts, certainly not Speedman's.

His early success came in the form of Kitchen Party (1997) and Duets (2000), opposite Gwyneth Paltrow. However, Felicity (1998-2002) made him a household name and a favorite among audiences.

After the show, he successfully transitioned to film with a significant role in Underworld (2003), opposite Kate Beckinsale and Bill Nighy, sealing his status as a versatile actor both on television and in film.

When her family moved to Manhattan, she was ten years old. Brewster began her acting career at the age of sixteen for Sacred Heart and the New York Professional Children's School. Among her roles are three years as a character in the soap operas All My Children and As the World Turns.

Brewster's acting career started with The Faculty in 1998; however, it was her role as Mia Toretto in The Fast and the Furious in 2001 that catapulted her to fame. She made several reappearances in the sequels of the same series while continuing her education. Brewster graduated from Yale University in 2003.

Brewster went on to star in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning (2006) and continued in Hollywood. She married a producer, Andrew Form, in 2007 and gave birth to two sons.
