Netflix’s latest sitcom, Leanne, which premiered on July 31, 2025, is the newest comedy show that needs to be on everyone’s watchlist. Created by Chuck Lorre, known for TBBT, along with Susan McMartin and Leanne Morgan, who is also the star of the series, focuses on the life of Leanne.
The series begins with Leanne discovering her husband’s infidelity as she copes with it while also taking care of her family. She is helped by her sister, Carol, in moving past her husband and his cheating incident. Although our protagonist might be going through a tough time in her life, the cast and characters of the comedy show do not recoil when it comes to creating humorous situations.
Here’s the cast and character guide of Netflix’s show.
Leanne cast and character guide
1) Leanne Morgan as Leanne
From a writer, a stand-up comedian, to an actress, Leanne Morgan has excelled in all of her roles. Morgan gained prominence with her Netflix special, Leanne Morgan: I'm Every Woman, and has also starred in a 2025 film called You're Cordially Invited.
In Leanne, the comedian-turned-actress plays the main character, whose life hits a crisis when she learns about her husband cheating on her. With numerous funny moments and more complicated situations arising, she tries to navigate through her life, but not without making us laugh.
2) Ryan Stiles as Bill
Ryan Stiles plays Bill in Leanne, the husband, who cheats on her. Although he cheated on Leanne, he is still ashamed about the action and does not want to give up on their relationship as he tries to apologise to her in any way possible.
Other than this show, the American-Canadian actor has also appeared in Two and a Half Men and The Drew Carey Show.
3) Kristen Johnston as Carol
In the comedy show, Kristen Johnston’s Carol becomes one of the most important people in Leanne’s life, who helps her get through the divorce crisis, as she has been in the same shoes twice. Carol is the opposite of her sibling. While her sister is described as charming and kind, Carol is edgier and blunt, making them the best duo, as this contrast in their personalities brings more entertainment and also makes it appear like a real sibling relationship.
The Emmy-winning actress has appeared in shows such as Mom, The Exes, and 3rd Rock from the Sun, for which she won the Primetime Award twice. Other than TV shows, Johnston has also appeared in Bride Wars and The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas.
4) Hannah Pilkes as Josie
Hannah Pilkes plays Leanne’s daughter, Josie. In the trailer, her mother describes her as a ‘work in progress’, who hasn’t settled down in her life, and is the troublemaker in the protagonist's already chaotic life.
The American actress has appeared in The Woodsman, For Worse, and Sorry Not Sorry, among others.
5) Graham Rogers as Tyler
Described as Leanne’s ‘Pride and Joy’ in the trailer of the Netflix sitcom, Graham Rogers’s Tyler is quite the opposite of his sister, Josie. He is struggling to raise his new family and is overwhelmed by the recent situation in his parents’ lives and marriage.
The American actor is not a new face on Netflix, as you might have seen him in another Netflix hit, Atypical, where he portrayed Evan Chapin. Apart from that, he has also appeared in The Kominsky Method and Ray Donovan.
6) Blake Clark as Daddy John
A comedy show about a family would not be complete without elderly parents who make the show better with their unhinged humor. The protagonist's father, played by Blake Clark, is one of those characters. He might come off as a traditionalist, but he is still described as someone loyal to his family.
The veteran actor has been seen in numerous popular projects such as Hacks, Community, and films like the Toy Story franchise and The Mask.
7) Celia Weston as Mama Margaret
From popular films such as The Talented Mr. Ripley, Dead Man Walking to TV shows such as Alice, the veteran actress has appeared in 40 films and TV shows combined.
Weston appears as Leanne’s mother, a kind and religious person, who, just like her father, has a very important presence in the show due to their entertaining characters.
