The Hating Game: Cast, characters, and what to expect from the film

The movie adaptation of the characters from the world created by Sally Thorne includes the following cast:

• Lucy Hale portrays Lucy Hutton
• Austin Stowell portrays Joshua Templeman
• Nicholas Baroudi portrays Patrick Templeman
• Corbin Bernsen portrays Bexley
• Sakina Jaffrey portrays Helen
• Billy Thomas Myott portrays Mack
• Tania Asnes portrays Annabelle
• Yasha Jackson portrays Julie

Viewers can keep their expectations high from the film, which will bring the characters of Lucy and Josh to life. The trailer starts with the usual rom-com trope featured in a plethora of romantic comedies, i.e., the boy and the girl hating each other to their guts.

Both are shown as one another's nemesis while being in a disagreement all the time. Then comes the opportunity to grab a higher job title where both Lucy and Josh are pitted against each other as their small fights transition to an actual battle.

However, the constant bickering and fighting soon transform into something adorable. Although the plot seems pretty straightforward, the endless office politics with other twists and turns have the capability to keep viewers engaged.

Although the trailer seems quite appealing, it will be pretty interesting to see how the movie adaptation will pan out compared to the bestselling novel.
