Here’s who’s in the cast of Moxie, and where you know the actors from. Amy Poehler directed the 2021 Netflix movie, which was adapted from Jennifer Mathieu’s 2015 novel of the same name by Tamara Chestna and Dylan Meyer. The storyline has a punk rock spirit, and follows a teenager who leads a feminist revolution.

Moxie stars Hadley Robinson as Vivian Carter, a junior at Rockford High School who observes female students being bullied. After learning that her mother created a Riot Girl zine years prior, she’s inspired to create her own publication. Vivian doesn’t initially reveal herself as Moxie’s leading revolutionary, and instead focuses on spreading her messages throughout the school, which ultimately leads to institutional change.

The Moxie main cast is headlined by Robinson, whose on-screen mother is portrayed by a Saturday Night Live alum. The supporting cast features an Oscar winner in Marcia Gay Harden, and the younger sister of actress Katherine Langford, Josephine Langford, has a small role as a cheerleader who admires Vivian’s leadership.
