The Netflix series has also announced two other major names for the show. Daisy Jelley and Australian actor Connor Simos will be the leading pair for the sports-romance drama. Jelley will portray Anastasia “Stassie” Allen and Simos has taken up the role of Nate Hawkins.

Jelley’s credits include How to Date Billy Walsh, How to Have Sex, Geek Girl, and more. The 26-year-old actress is also set to appear in upcoming horror feature The Hoarder and Netflix series Poser. Meanwhile, Icebreaker will mark Simos’ first credited television role. He is also set to appear in the upcoming film, Subversion, alongside Chris Hemsworth.

“She’s the transfer gunning for Olympic gold. He’s the campus star chasing the NHL. But when an accident forces their teams to share one rink, Anastasia Allen and Nate Hawkins collide—and discipline gives way to obsession, because the only thing more dangerous than wanting to win is wanting each other,” reads the logline for Icebreaker, according to Variety.

A release date has not been announced yet.
