You may know Esther McGregor for her role as Isabel in A24's Baby Girl, where she worked alongside Nicole Kidman and Antonio Banderas. She also appeared in an episode of Obi-Wan Kenobi as Tetha Grig, a pink-haired spice dealer, which is notable because she is in fact Ewan McGregor's daughter.
Emilio Sakraya is perhaps most well-known for his depiction of ex-con Giwar Hajabi in the 2022 film Rheingold. You may also know him from his stint as JC in the first season of Netflix's Warrior Nun series.
For those not already familiar with the Fourth Wing books (AKA the Empyrean series), let's quickly break down who these characters are: Violet Sorrengail is the main protagonist in the books and is often referenced as a beautiful but frail girl with a deadly side to her.
