Fatal Seduction cast: who's who in the steamy thriller

Kgomotso Christopher as Nandi Mahlati

Fatal Seduction is a South African Netflix thriller series about a steamy holiday romance that ends in tragedy when someone winds up dead.

According to Netflix: "When Nandi heads out for a weekend away with her best friend, Brenda, she’s a bit on edge: While grieving a recent miscarriage that’s tested her love for her husband, Leonard, she sees a suspicious text on his phone — from his young and beautiful new assistant, Ameera. On their luxurious getaway, Brenda tries to shake some sense into Nandi, and even encourages her to hook up with a hot guy they spot on the beach.

"Though Jacob’s much younger, the two eventually meet up — and have an instant (and intensely physical) connection. The next day, Nandi heads home without Brenda, back to the realities of life and her growing suspicions about Leonard. But soon, Brenda winds up dead — and the case may not only have a connection to another murder, but also everyone in Nandi’s inner circle."

But who's in the cast? Here's everything you need to know about them...
