Meet the cast of Red Rose, the teen horror series keeping everyone up at night
They are a talented bunch
Red Rose is the latest teen horror series to join Netflix and it has had everyone shivering after every episode, hoping the dreaded app doesn’t reach their phone. The series was initially on BBC in 2022 but it has since been added to Netflix and is now in the number one spot on TV shows.
The horror series follows a group of friends who encounter the Red Rose app which gifts them with whatever they want so long as they follow the rules of the app. Things take a turn for the worse when one member of the group dies as a result of the app.
The Red Rose cast is filled with a bunch of fresh faces, with a few who made their TV debut on the show.
Amelia Clarkson – Wren
Amelia Clarkson stars as Wren Davis in Red Rose and she has starred in a number of high profile TV series over the years. Amelia played Aelflaed for 17 episodes in The Last Kingdom as well as Rosina in Poldark for 15 episodes. Her very first role was in 2009 as Elizabeth Marchwood in CBBC’s The Sarah Jane Adventures.
The 25-year-old is a massive vibe and her Instagram is full of jaw-dropping selfies and fun photos of her on holiday. Back in 2021, Amelia shared photos of her behind the scenes on the show and the cast all seem like fast friends. Amelia currently has 22,000 followers on Instagram and her handle is @amelia_jayne_clarkson.
