Froggatt previously starred for six seasons in ITV's Downton Abbey and currently stars in Paramount+'s MobLand, which has been renewed for a second season. Forsyth starred in the second season of Syfy's Channel Zero and recurred on HBO's The Gilded Age.
- Froggatt will play Harriet Talbot, who is sharp, unflinching, and unwilling to back down. Born into poverty in Boston, she married a wealthy merchant who turned out to be cruel in every way a man can be. When she found herself pregnant, she realized that she could not stay with this man. She barely escaped him with the clothes on her back and found her way to a home for wayward women - where she was encouraged to give the baby up for adoption. Lost and with nowhere to turn, she happened upon a Quaker community that took her in without question. The community became her home and her faith. Wanting to marry and settle down, she is matched with Samuel. Minutes after the ceremony, Samuel is killed in an effort to scare the community off thier land. Harriet cannot stand idly by. She sets out to find protection, and it's through her that Chris Adams (Dillon) is drawn into the mission. Her strength isn't in firepower. It's in conviction.
- Forsyth will play Katie "Deadeye" Dalton. Wry, sarcastic, and emotionally guarded, she learned to shoot from her father on the family's farm. When a Wild West show came through, she was recruited and given the moniker "Deadeye Dalton," the fastest gun in the west. As their star attraction, she dutifully sent money home - and during that stretch crossed paths with Vin Tanner (Ealy) in a brief, vivid fling neither quite forgot. After years on the stage, she finally made it back home to see her family, only to find the house empty, with no sign of what had happened to them. Distraught, she started drinking. The drinking got worse, and one night her aim slipped, and she killer her co-star in front of a crowd. The years since have been a slow drift from one dead end to the next, chasing rumors of her brothers that go nowhere. Tired. Faded. Still dangerous with a gun, but haunted.

- Acken will play Perry, Cam's (Collazo) outgoing, athletic, and effortlessly cool little sister. Everything in life just seems to come more easily to Perry than it does to Cam, but the truth is, Perry looks up to her big sister and is terrified of losing her. Dealing with a few problems of her own that she hasn't shared with her mother or sister, she wouldn't mind a little magic this summer.
- Inês will play Jade, an artistic, confident local who grew up in Promise alongside the town's famed "Catalogue Kids." She's well-connected and quick to form an opinion about why newcomer Cam has arrived for the summer.
