Notes:
Main
Rhenzy Feliz as Alex Wilder: A nerd who longs to reunite with his childhood friends. He has a high intellect and is the leader of the Runaways.[4]
Lyrica Okano as Nico Minoru:
A Wiccan who isolates herself with her gothic appearance and is a member of the Runaways.[4] Unlike the comics, Nico does not summon the Staff of One through self-harm. Okano said this was tweaked, "for good reason" as there would be "a lot of young teenagers watching the show and we don't want to promote anything like self-harm because that's serious". She added that an element of drawing blood would still be involved.[5]
Virginia Gardner as Karolina Dean:
A human-alien hybrid burdened by her religious upbringing who wants to pursue her own desires instead of following in her mother's footsteps, and is a member of the Runaways.[4] Karolina has the ability of flight, to glow with rainbow-colored light, and to shoot beams of light.[6]
Ariela Barer as Gert Yorkes: A riot grrrl, social activist, and a member of the Runaways. She also has a telepathic link with her genetically engineered dinosaur, Old Lace.[4]
Gregg Sulkin as Chase Stein:
A high school lacrosse player who is often dismissed as a dumb jock, but displays brilliance in engineering and is a member of the Runaways.[4] Sulkin and the writers wanted the character to be "more layered" than the comics, and Sulkin felt that Chase was the most changed of the Runaways from the source material.[7] The character is depicted as having the potential to be as much of a genius as his father is,[8] and builds gadgets, including powerful weaponized gauntlets called "Fistigons".[9] Connor Falk portrays a young Chase.[10]
Allegra Acosta as Molly Hernandez: The youngest member of the Runaways who is characterized by her positive attitude. Molly discovers she has the ability of superhuman strength and invulnerability.[4] Evelyn Angelos portrays a young Molly.[11]
Angel Parker as Catherine Wilder: Alex's mother, a successful lawyer, and a member of Pride.[2]
Ryan Sands as Geoffrey Wilder: Alex's father and a self-made businessman who had a grueling path to his success and is a member of Pride.[2]
Annie Wersching as Leslie Dean: Karolina's mother, one of the leaders of the cult-like religious group, the Church of Gibborim, and a member of Pride.[2][12]
Kip Pardue as Frank Dean: Karolina's father, a former teen star who is struggling in his professional acting career and becomes one of the leaders of the Church of Gibborim.[2][12]
Ever Carradine as Janet Stein: Chase's mother who has a brilliant mind, is "a perfect PTA mom", and a member of Pride.[2] Sorel Carradine portrays a young Janet.[10]
James Marsters as Victor Stein:
Chase's father, an engineering genius and a member of Pride.[2] Marsters was inspired by Vincent D'Onofrio's portrayal of Wilson Fisk in Daredevil, saying it was "exactly opposite of what I was expecting", and also looked for common ground with Victor, saying, "I'm not an abusive parent but I'm not a perfect parent. I don't think anyone is." He added that Victor just wants Chase to live up to his potential.[8] Tim Pocock portrays a young Victor.[10]
Brigid Brannagh as Stacey Yorkes: Gert's mother, a bioengineer, and a member of Pride.[2]
Kevin Weisman as Dale Yorkes: Gert's father, a bioengineer, and a member of Pride.[2]
Brittany Ishibashi as Tina Minoru:
Nico's mother who is a brilliant innovator, ruthless CEO, and perfectionist "tiger mom" who is a member of Pride.[2] The character previously appeared in the film Doctor Strange, in a minor role as a Master of the Mystic Arts, portrayed by Linda Louise Duan.[13][14][15] The producers felt free to recast the role and create a different version of Tina Minoru since Duan was not named as the character in the film.[16]
James Yaegashi as Robert Minoru: Nico's father and a member of Pride who is a brilli
