It's the Avengers assemble of teen drama actors.

With a star-studded cast featuring Camila Mendes, Maya Hawke, Sophie Turner and Austin Abrams, Netflix's Do Revenge might have you asking yourself where you've seen that actor before. The movie, out now on streaming, is set in high school—a school setting that most of the Do Revenge actors were recently familiar with—and centers around two teenage girls who have scandals break out about them.

Drea, played by Camila, has her sex tape uploaded by her boyfriend, while Eleanor, played by Maya, is trying to move past rumor that was started after she came out. After a run-in with each other, the two students hatch a plan to get revenge on their high school bullies.

Netflix describes the movie as "a subverted Hitchcock-ian dark comedy featuring the scariest protagonists of all: teenage girls." And while filled with laughs, director Jennifer Kaytin Robinson recently spoke about the greater theme that the movie focuses on.

"It's a very twisty turny, fun, thrill ride of revenge, but it's actually a movie about healing," Robinson said in an interview with TODAY published Sept. 20. "I would say that this is a film about trauma bonding and healing."

With a nod to teenagers, Do Revenge casted fellow fan favorite performers to bring the movie to life. Here's where you've seen them before.

Known for her role as Veronica Lodge in Riverdale and Tala in Palm Springs, Camila Mendes takes center stage in Do Revenge as fallen popular girl Drea.

Camila's performance in Do Revenge follows news that Riverdale will end on CW after its upcoming seventh season.

"There's so much more I want to experience, there's still so much more I want to achieve," Camila told InStyle in an interview published Sept. 15. "I get a small window to do that between seasons. I want to have other things under my belt. I don't want it to just be Riverdale."

Maya Hawke

Maya Hawke plays new student Eleanor in Do Revenge, and the actress is familiar with Netflix productions. She got her breakout role as Robin in Stranger Things, which aired its fourth season this summer. 

The 24-year-old recently shared what it was like filming both Do Revenge and Stranger Things at the same time.

"It put a lot of pressure on the schedule and basically every day we had to get through by the skin of our teeth. We could never make a change, because the dominoes that would fall were so many," Maya said in an interview with the Los Angeles Times published Sept. 16. "It never crossed my mind for a second not to do everything in my power to make this work.
