Netflix has rounded out the cast of the upcoming movie Luckiest Girl Alive with a host of big TV names.

The adaptation of Jessica Knoll’s novel has already cast Family Guy and Bad Moms actress Mila Kunis in the lead role – and now we know who'll be joining her.

Deadline reports that American Horror Story star Finn Wittrock has joined the cast, along with fellow AHS alum and Nashville star Connie Britton.

Cruel Summer's Chiara Aurelia has also landed a role, alongside Scoot McNairy, Thomas Barbusca, Justine Lupe, Dalmar Abuzeid, Alex Barone, Carson MacCormac and Flashdance legend Jennifer Beals.

Luckiest Girl Alive will see Kunis star as Ani, a glamorous New York magazine editor who's crafted a seemingly perfect life for herself with a sought-after job and a dream wedding on the horizon.

But Ani is hiding some dark secrets from her teenage years at the prestigious Bradley School – secrets which she is forced to confront when the director of a crime documentary invites her to speak about a shocking incident from her past.

Aurelia is thought to be playing the younger version of Kunis' character.

Mike Barker, who has directed episodes of The Handmaid's Tale and Fargo, is directing the film, while writer Knoll is adapting the screenplay from her novel. Kunis will be co-producing through her company Orchard Farm Productions.

No release date for the film has been set just yet, so watch this space.
