The One: Here's the Cast of Netflix's New Thriller

The Cast of Netflix's New Thriller The One Has Some Surprisingly Familiar Faces

The One is the latest heart-pounding thriller from Netflix. Based on a book with the same name written by John Marrs, the show hinges on the idea that for every person in the world, there's another person out there who is scientifically proven to be their perfect match. As you can imagine, finding out that there's someone out there who's genetically matched to you (not to mention the fact that they might not be the person you're currently with) can cause some trouble, which is exactly what makes it such a compelling experiment.

The show follows Rebecca, the founder of MatchDNA (played by Hannah Ware, aka the sister of musician Jessie Ware), as she struggles to leave behind her sketchy past and focus on her growing business due to an open investigation. It also showcases the effects of the test on a number of couples as they begin to question their relationships, for better or for worse.

The show features an extensive cast of some familiar faces including Ware, Riviera star Dimitri Leonidas, and Industry's Amir El-Masry, along with some newcomers, too. Keep reading to discover all of the stars who ended up on Netflix's The One before it airs on 12 March.
