The aftermath of a violent criminal showdown leaves a cunning and wounded teenager not seeking solace, but vengeance. Breaking out of her hospital bed, she sets her sights on the ultimate targets: her father’s pristine new wife and the picture-perfect family that replaced her. This isn’t a homecoming; it’s a hostile takeover, and no one in the path of her rage is safe.

This pulse-pounding thriller assembles a magnetic cast of rising stars and revered character actors. They bring to life a world of fractured families, criminal underworlds, and the terrifyingly single-minded focus of a young woman who has nothing left to lose.

Caught Stealing movie cast

1: Zoë Kravitz as YVONNE

Zoë Kravitz (The Batman, High Fidelity) embodies the titular teen, Yvonne, with feral intensity and razor-sharp intelligence. Kravitz trades her usual cool allure for a raw, wounded-animal physicality—every move is calculated through a haze of pain and adrenaline. She is a master manipulator, using her perceived vulnerability as her most potent weapon.

Kravitz’s performance is a high-wire act of emotional whiplash. One moment she’s a terrified girl, the next a cold-blooded strategist. Her mission is deeply personal, and Kravitz ensures we see the shattered, jealous child beneath the vengeful exterior, making her actions as horrifying as they are perversely understandable.

2: Austin Butler as HANK THOMPSON

Fresh off his transformative role in Elvis, Austin Butler shifts gears to play Hank Thompson, likely the father at the center of the storm. Butler can channel a magnetic charm that masks a troubled past, making him the perfect fit for a man who tried to outrun his history, only to have it crash through his door, bleeding and furious.

Butler will excel at portraying a man being torn apart. His love for his new family wars with his guilt and fear toward the daughter he failed. Is he a victim or the architect of this nightmare? Butler’s performance will keep the audience questioning his allegiances until the very end.

3: Matt Smith as RUSS

Matt Smith (House of the Dragon, The Crown) is brilliantly cast as Russ, a name that suggests a blunt, no-nonsense figure. Given Smith’s proclivity for charismatic and often dangerous characters, Russ is likely a criminal associate from the botched job, either hunting Yvonne for a score or being dragged back into the chaos against his will.

Smith brings a terrifying, unpredictable energy. Russ could be the wildcard—a source of brutal opposition for Yvonne or a dark ally whose goals temporarily align with hers. Every scene he’s in will crackle with menace and volatile potential.

4: Dominique Silver as LISA

Dominique Silver steps into the pivotal role of Lisa, the new wife. Silver will masterfully portray a woman whose perfect life is suddenly a war zone. Her performance is key—she must be more than just a victim; she must reveal a core of steel as she is forced to fight for the family Yvonne believes she stole.

5: Griffin Dunne as PAUL

The legendary Griffin Dunne (After Hours, This Is Us) brings his world-weary gravitas to the role of Paul. He could be a family friend, a lawyer, or a figure from the father’s past. Dunne’s presence suggests a character who serves as a moral compass or a voice of reason, desperately trying to de-escalate the situation before it explodes.

6: George Abud as DUANE & Action Bronson as AMTRAK

George Abud (The Band’s Visit) and rapper Action Bronson bring distinct flavors to what are likely key roles in the film’s criminal ecosystem. Duane sounds like a nervous, perhaps intellectual, accomplice. Amtrak, named after a train line, suggests a man who is a literal force of nature or a key transporter of illicit goods. They represent the lingering threads of the life Yvonne is trying to use or escape.

7: Shaun O’Hagan as SPO & Kitty Lawrence as MISS KITTY

Shaun O’Hagan appears as SPO (likely a Security Police Officer or a specific official title), representing the law closing in from one side. Kitty Lawrence as Miss Kitty undoubtedly plays a character with a sly edge—perhaps a informant, a nightclub owner, or a fence for stolen goods. She is a gateway to the city’s underworld.

8: Jake Bentley Young as COLLEGE KID

Jake Bentley Young as College Kid represents the normal world Yvonne can never have. He might be an unknowing pawn, a glimpse of an innocent life, or simply collateral damage in her destructive path. His role highlights the stark contrast between the life she’s destroying and the one she feels was stolen from her.
