For Whedonverse fans, there's something you need to watch out for this year. Some Dollhouse alumni are up for a project that will make you laugh and fall in love. Fran Kranz, who played programmer Topher Brink in the Josh Whedon drama will star in Anton King's new rom-com Lust for Love. Also starring the project is Dichen Lachman who played Sierra in the same fictional drama.

According to Inside Movies, Kranz will play the role of Astor, "a lovable yet hopeless guy who ruins his chance at a happily ever after with his childhood crush, Mila (Tron Legacy's Beau Garrett). Convinced that the reason he's so unlucky in love is because of his lack of experience with women, Astor enlists the help of Mila's ex-best friend, Cali (Lachman), to teach him a thing or two about wooing the opposite sex."

Also starring in the film is Reign actress Caitlin Stasey who will portray Trinity, Astor's new fun-loving neighbor. Stasey described her new project as "more than meets the eye" saying "it's a complete diversion from the classic rom-com, since it features an empowered female character."

Talking to Entertainment Weekly, the 23-year old Australian actress shared some details about her character. She said that Trinity is "sweet, sincere, and a little bit naive."

As for her co-actor Kranz, she said that she met him prior to Lust for Love through Dichen Lachman, with whom she'd acted alongside in the Australian television show Neighbours.

"Fran is such a wonderfully talented actor and so likable - I think likability is vital for his role particularly," Stasey says of Kranz's portrayal of Astor.

"If you didn't sympathize with him or laugh with him, then it'd be a failure, but it's easy to believe in his clumsy sweetness."
