JENNY MALONE – FEMALE LEAD 30s
Actress who is decently divorced after six unhappy years of marriage. But when she meets George, things escalate quickly. Jennie is well-liked by pretty much everyone who meets her.

LEO SCHNEIDER – MALE SUPPORTING Late 30s/40s.
George's carefree, over-protective younger brother who does his best to help George through a difficult grieving process. He is married, but sleeps around quite a bit. He begins having an affair with Faye, whom he used to date.

Jenny's best friend. She is a smart, intelligent woman whose life isn't quite turning out how she planned. She is a glib, somewhat sarcastic, friendly, and realistic woman.
