- Xavier (Dave Franco) Obviously, you can’t have a murder mystery without a murder. Unfortunately, it’s Xavier who is the catalyst for the events of “The Afterparty.”
- Detective Danner (Tiffany Haddish) Leading the investigation on “The Afterparty” is Detective Danner, played by Tiffany Haddish. She’s not technically supposed to be running point on this case, but who’s going to stop her?
- Detective Culp (John Early) Of course, every lead detective needs an assistant. John Early fills that role in “The Afterparty” as Detective Culp. He’s very sassy, and very much doesn’t appreciate not being kept in the loop.
- Aniq (Sam Richardson) Aniq seems to be a nice guy, but unfortunately, he catapults himself to suspect number one pretty quickly. Sam Richardson plays the “adorakable” character, who really just wanted a second chance at dating his high school crush.
