Synopsis: Windfall, is an hour drama that follows 20 lottery winners after their unexpected good fortune. Each winner's reaction is different and the overwhelming cash windfall presents unexpected marital, ethical, legal and even criminal problems.
At the center is a close-knit foursome who have known each other since college when the "wrong" spouses were in love. Luke Perry (Beverly Hills, 90210) stars as Peter Schaefer, a devoted husband to Nina (Lana Parrilla) and father of two. Parrilla finds herself in a complicated relationship with Cameron Walsh, played by Jason Gedrick. Sarah Wynter plays Cameron's loving but suspicious wife.
A relative stranger to their circle is D.J. Cotrona as Sean Mathers, who finds that winning the lottery threatens to expose a dark secret in his past. Also, for Damien Cutler (Jon Foster), a rebellious teen, winning the cash means he is set free from his parents -- with millions in his pocket. Alice Greczyn stars as Frankie, a 16-year old girl whose separated parents' newfound wealth sets off a marital war.
In addition, Kimberly George (Malinda Williams) is a 22-year-old single mother whose winning the lottery gives her the opportunity to start a new life and leave the trailer park behind. Rounding out the cast is Jaclyn DeSantis, who plays Maggie Hernandez, a nurse who can't wait to spend her winnings.
