Brown will play Janelle. She is smart and no nonsense, a physical therapist at a prison who gains trust with her patients. After working with Osito, she forms a romantic relationship with him.
Blutcher will portray Vernon. An artsy-emo, sympathetic recovering addict. He is a misunderstood artist who helps a fellow cellmate run a business out of their prison unit.

Weetman is Callie, Renee’s mom. Aging beauty, rough around the edges, may be an ex-stripper herself. She is opinionated and usually with a drink in her hand. She has a very transactional relationship with her daughter.
