Adapted from a book series written by Richelle Mead, Vampire Academy is a supernatural drama that includes a massive roster of characters - here is everything we know about the cast members who play them. Vampire Academy was first traversed to the big screen in 2014, but the movie was unfortunately a box office failure. Its young adult vampire storylines later caught Julie Plec's attention, who collaborated with Marguerite MacIntyre (writer of The Vampire Diaries' spin-off, The Originals) to adapt it into a full-fledged TV series.

As Vampire Academy's title suggests, its drama ensues in the backdrop of a vampire boarding school named St. Vladimir's Academy. A guardian-in-training Dhampir named Rosemarie "Rose" Hathaway and Moroi princess Vasilisa "Lissa" Dragomir are among the many young vampires who join the academy to hone their abilities and learn more about their place in the vampire class hierarchy. With each episode, as Rose and Lissa break their divides and become friends, they delve deeper into the forbidden relationships and class divides that surround them.

Since Peacock's Vampire Academy is rife with political undertones and complex relationships, it is heavily driven by its cast and characters. Owing to this, it is not surprising that it has a talented team of cast members led by Sisi Stringer and Daniela Nieves. On that premise, here is everything else we know about the cast and characters of Peacock's Vampire Academy.

Sisi Stringer As Rose Hathaway

Among the three types of vampires existing in the Vampire Academy universe — Moroi, Damphir, and Strigoi — Rose belongs to the Damphir class. She is the only child of an infamous Moroi named Ibrahim 'Abe' Mazur and renowned Guardian Janine Hathaway. At the academy, she befriends Lissa, and they set out on many supernatural adventures. As a consequence of one of these adventures, Rose ends up missing several years of school, and that is when a guardian, Dimitri, helps her catch up with her batch mates. With time, Dimitri and Rose go from being friends to lovers despite having several odds stacked against them. Vampire Academy star Sisi Stringer is best known for playing Mileena in Mortal Kombat (2021).
