Glamorous on Netflix: Full cast and where you've seen them before

A new drama about a beauty brand and its workers has dropped on Netflix. Glamorous stars YouTuber Miss Benny and Sex and the City's Kim Cattrall, putting queer people and their stories front and centre.

The soapy workplace series sees Miss Benny as Marco Meija, a young gender nonconforming queer man whose life seems to be stuck in place. But, as luck would have it, he meets his idol - and beauty mogul Madolyn Addison, played by Kim, while working his day job behind a makeup counter.

Looking to shake up her prestigious business, Madolyn hires Marco, giving him a chance to figure out what he wants out of life, who he actually is and what it really means for him to be queer.

The 10-part series, which was created and executive produced by Jordon Nardino, is executive produced by Damon Wayans Jr. and Kameron Tarlow of Two Shakes Entertainment and produced by CBS Television Studios for Netflix.

Here's the cast in full - and where you've seen them previously.

Miss Benny, also known as Ben J. Pierce, is a nonbinary YouTuber, musician and actor from Dallas, Texas. The 24-year old has previously appeared in American Horror Stories, Love, Victor and Fuller House.

Liverpool-born Kim Cattrall, meanwhile, is best known for her role as Samantha Jones on Sex and the City. The actress received five Emmy Award nominations and four Golden Globe nominations for her portrayal, and won the 2002 Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress.

Her impressive credits also include How I Met Your Mother, Queer as Folk, My Boy Jack and Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country.

Zane Phillips plays Chad, Madolyn’s son and director of sales. He has previously appeared in 2022 queer film Fire Island, fantasy TV series Legacies and CBS political drama Madam Secretary.

Jade Payton is Venetia, Madolyn’s first assistant and a mentor of sorts to Marco. You might recognise Jade from her previous roles, including Demi in Netflix apocalyptic drama Daybreak, Domonique in The Rookie, Jordan in iZombie and Vanessa in Dynasty.

Meanwhile Michael Hsu Rosen is graphic designer Ben, who catches Marco’s eye. If you watched the TV series Pretty Smart, Tiny Pretty Things or Monsterland, or the 2016 film Looking: The Movie, then Michael's face will seem familiar.
