Survival thriller Fall has made its way to the top of Netflix’s top 10 list since being added to the streamer last week – a few months after it debuted in UK cinemas.

The film follows events after two best friends find themselves stranded at the top of an abandoned radio tower, and is packed with all sorts of gruelling moments across its nerve-shredding runtime.

Given the tower is located squarely in the middle of nowhere, the cast for the film is relatively small – but there are nonetheless a couple of big names who do make appearances.

Read on for everything you need to know about the cast.
