True Spirit Series Cast

Teagan Croft portrays Jessica Watson, the youngest person to sail solo worldwide at 16, who is motivated to break existing records. On her journey, she faces challenges, demonstrates bravery, and discovers how to handle vulnerability and loneliness. She is fiercely independent, yet she also values her relationships with her family and Ben Bryant, her mentor.

Cliff Curtis, Ben Bryant Jess’ mentor, is an experienced sailor with a harsh attitude. He wants to make sure Jess is aware of the risks associated with the water since he is aware of them. He sets high standards for Jess and doesn’t treat her differently because he is dedicated to seeing that she realizes her dream.

Anna Paquin, as Julie Watson, Jess’ mother, has always encouraged her daughter and assisted her in overcoming her doubts. While she worries about Jess being alone on the sea, she knows she can never stop Jess from following her dreams.

Josh Lawson as Roger Watson, Jess’ father, struggles to resist his desire to shield his daughter and encourage her sense of adventure. Roger needs to develop the confidence to trust Jess and allow her to make her own decisions as she sets out on her dangerous sailing trip.
