Jenna Ortega as Cairo Sweet in Miller’s Girl
At 21 years old, Ortega embodies the character of 18-year-old Cairo Sweet. Represented as hailing from a wealthy yet neglectful family, her role involves navigating and challenging the norms of teacher-student dynamics. While Jenna plays the role of an academic genius and an aspiring writer with a frosty demeanor Martin Freeman, 52, plays her English professor, Jonathon Miller. The on-screen duo also left the moviegoers baffled with their intimate scenes. While the narrative of the plot revolves around their age dynamics, some viewers did not hold back from expressing discomfort over the age difference between Freeman and Ortega.

The narrative unfolds as Sweet engages in a creative writing assignment given by her professor.
