On-Set Snapshots and Secret Clues: What Behind-the-Scenes Media Reveals About the My Fault Cast
By David Miller
Bringing Mercedes Ron’s Wattpad-turned-novel empire to the screen was a risky gambit for producers Álex de la Iglesia and Carolina Bang at Pokeepsie Films. Readers had spent years projecting their own imaginations onto Noah Morgan and Nicholas Leister. The filmmakers could not afford an awkward screen test. Director Domingo González needed actors capable of carrying brooding tension alongside sharp verbal sparring without tipping into cheap parody.
Enter Nicole Wallace and Gabriel Guevara. The two were far from strangers when they walked into production offices in Madrid. Both had starred in the critically acclaimed Spanish adaptation of the teen series Skam España between 2018 and 2020. That shared baseline erased months of customary icebreaking. Rather than fumbling through baseline chemistry workshops, Wallace and Guevara stepped onto the set with an intuitive familiarity already intact.
González routinely noted during international press tours that their familiarity allowed the production to skip initial trust exercises. They challenged one another on delivery timing, body posture, and physical boundaries. This familiarity gave the production team the confidence to capture unscripted improvisations between structured takes, creating the foundation for the film's standout moments.
