Actors Geoff Pierson and Clark Backo have joined the cast of the upcoming indie comedy The List.

The actors will star alongside the previously announced cast, which includes Halston Sage, Christian Navarro, Gregg Sulkin, Jonah Platt, Chrissie Fitt, Will Peltz and Zach Reino.

Pierson will play New York City Mayor Capozzi. He shares a special, paternal relationship with Abby, who has been his speechwriter for the last five years. Backo will portray Kenzie Burke, the rising star who has an affair with Abby's fiance.

Also backed by Nickel City Picture's Tobias Weymar, Annie Mahoney and Mark Fasano, the film have Vitolo, Lederer, Eric B Fleischmann and Maurice Fadida on board as executive producers.
