For those who have been rewatching Girls recently, Lena Dunham just dropped another new binge-worthy series. Netflix’s Too Much—out now—follows Jessica (Megan Stalter), a young woman who moves from New York to London after experiencing a messy breakup. Across the pond, she meets and begins falling for a British musician named Felix (Will Sharpe).

And like any Dunham project, the rest of the cast is stacked. 'I honestly can’t believe it happened,' Dunham told Tudum about Too Much’s all-star ensemble. 'There were so many actors that I respect that I was like, "Even if the character is in one episode or four episodes, I want to give them something to grab onto."'

Below, get to know the main cast of Too Much.
