Kit Harington, Minnie Driver, and 12 More Faces You'll See on Modern Love

Harington — who became a dad earlier this year — stars as Michael, an Irish man looking to reconnect with his potential soulmate after a pandemic tears them apart. Harington is famously known for his role on Game of Thrones.

Boynton stars opposite Harington as his love interest in episode three. Before departing the train they first met on, the two strangers agree to meet in the same spot in exactly two weeks. But to their dismay, the country shuts down due to a worldwide pandemic. Prior to her role on Modern Love, Boynton starred in Bohemian Rhapsody and The Politician.

Lil, played by Fishback, is the queen of getting stuck in the friend zone, and now she's gone and fallen for her best friend. Most recently, Fishback appeared alongside Daniel Kaluuya in Judas and the Black Messiah. She was also in The Hate U Give.

What do you do when your best friend tells you they're in love with you? That's for Powell's character Vince to figure out. Powell, who played Tony in the Broadway revival of West Side Story, has a strong theater background, and this is his first major TV role since his appearance on the TV series Indoor Boys. Be sure to keep an eye out for him, since he's also set to star in Dear Evan Hanson and on the upcoming Sex and the City revival.

Garrett Hedlund — who became a first-time parent with Emma Roberts this year! — plays a former Marine named Spence. Hedlund has been working in Hollywood for over a decade, and his résumé includes credits such as Mudbound, Unbroken, Tron: Legacy, and Country Strong, to name a few.

Paquin takes on the role of a struggling housewife who discovers her husband is having an affair with the spouse of Hedlund's character. The highly talented actress has starred in The Affair, The Irishman, X-Men, and True Blood.

Pais plays Robbie, Ben's old but very memorable fling. This is Pais's first major role since making his TV debut on HBO's Room 104 in 2018.

In the final episode of Modern Love season two, Okonedo plays a single mother of two named Elizabeth. Before Modern Love, Okonedo worked on Ratched, The Secret Life of Bees, and Hotel Rwanda, to name just a few.

Menzies — whom you might recognize as Prince Philip on The Crown — plays Elizabeth's ex-husband, Van. What starts as a hookup for old time's sake quickly turns into a passionate recoupling and begs the question, does time really heal all wounds? Menzies has starred on shows including Game of Thrones and Outlander.
