Here's Everything You Need To Know About The Cast Of "The Society" And Their Characters

From Seventeen

Netflix's newest teen drama is officially here and it's definitely one that's going to keep you hooked. The Society is about a group of teens who are mysteriously transported into another version of their town, one without any trace of their parents. So, the teens have to figure out how to survive on their own, and well that leads to a whole lot of drama. If the plot sounds familiar, it's because you were paying attention in English class. The Society, which is now streaming on Netflix, is like a remix of the classic novel, Lord of the Flies. Without adults, the teens have to figure out how to govern themselves and survive and if you read the book, you know that's a lot harder than it sounds. Here's everything you need to know about the cast of The Society.
