Netflix is developing “Icebreaker,” adapting Hannah Grace’s bestselling novel, and has cast its two lead roles. Daisy Jelley is set to play Anastasia “Stassie” Allen, and Connor Simos will portray Nate Hawkins.
The series is described as a college romance drama with an athletic focus. Stassie is a transfer student pursuing Olympic gold, while Nate is connected to the campus environment as the relationship develops. The announcements in the two outlets align on the cast selections and character assignments, with both outlets framing Jelley and Simos as the leads in Netflix’s adaptation of the same source material.
