Netflix's The Wrong Paris cast in full from iCarly icon to unrecognisable child star
The new romcom is coming to Netflix this week
Romcom fans are in for a treat with Netflix's The Wrong Paris, and its cast is full of familiar faces.
The romance, which will land on the streamer this Friday (September 12), follows Dawn, a young woman who dreams of attending an art school in Paris, France.
Although she is accepted into the school, Dawn can barely afford to travel to the city of love or make ends meet once she arrives.
But she soon stumbles upon a The Bachelor-style dating show called The Honey Pot, which seems to be set in France.
However, after being cast on the show, Dawn learns that the series is actually set in Paris, Texas.
While there, she discovers the show's bachelor is a familiar face, Trey McAllen. The pair later sparks a connection, which threatens to spoil Dawn's plans to move to Europe and chase her dreams.
