FATAL DETOUR CAST AND CHARACTERS
D’KIA ANDERSON plays “Donna.” Very attractive but possesses natural beauty. Loyal to her friend Laren and definitely not a vanity type. Falling into this unfortunate demise, her key motive is to survive with Laren.
SHANICA KNOWLES plays “Laren.” Best friend of Donna. She radiates natural beauty. She is ever cynical about anything but has a heart of gold.
JILLISA LYNN plays “Juli.” A Top-tier model influencer who is now expanding her horizon to be an actress. In addition to her admirable beauty, her claim to fame is through her community outreach appearances in public.
AISHA KUMARI plays “Aisha.” Ever-jealous friend of Juli. Despite being a stunning influencer herself, she feels that she is always not enough because she knows that she is Juli’s sidekick.
JARROD DESTICHE plays “Blu.” Hot but too pretty to be rugged influencer boyfriend of Juli. He is the typical influencer who is always camera-ready. Every look, every twitch, every blink is calculated for maximum vanity.
MARK FLEISCHMANN plays “Tenzo.” He began his journey as an inventive entrepreneur with a noble cause, but his frustration with capitalism and vanity ultimately led him to lose his sanity.
PAT JANKIEWICZ plays “Moff.” He is inhumanly big in size, and he can summon a brutal strength to contort any human beings like they are plastic action figures.
