Six Actors Join the Cast of <em>Your Heart is a Hummingbird</em>

Six more actors have joined the cast of Your Heart is a Hummingbird, the feature debut of writer and director SM Goldberger, Deadline reported on 10 November 2026.

The film's lead, Chloë Levine, plays Rebekah Rosenberg, an adult film star who works under the name Bex Bacall. The new cast members fill out her family and her working life. Lisa Edelstein plays Tzippy, Rebekah's mother. Arye Gross plays Noah, her father. Mila Brener plays Judy, her sister.

Outside the family, Kevin Pollak plays Isaac Zelnick, an agent. Sylvia Kuhar plays Kimmy Kelley. Joe Swanberg plays Garrett, an adult film director.

The project began at the Antigravity Academy Screenwriters Camp in 2024, where Goldberger developed the script. Production has recently wrapped in Los Angeles, so the cast additions come after filming. Winsor Yuan, Chelsea Davenport and Kimberly Hwang produce the film.

Casting news of this kind usually arrives in the months after a shoot. Actors are often announced once a film's roles are settled and the producers are ready to talk about the project. Deadline's report did not put a date on the film's arrival in cinemas or on any streaming service, so there is nothing to add to the calendar yet.

For a first-time director, a cast of this size is a clear sign of how the project has grown since its screenwriting-camp beginnings. Each name adds a separate family or workplace thread to the story, from Rebekah's relationship with her parents and sister to the agents and directors around her career.

Film-making of this kind moves in steps. A script becomes a set of roles, the roles become a cast, and the cast becomes a film that a distributor must still find a home for. Each stage depends on decisions by producers, actors and the people who fund and sell films. Tuesday's news marks one of those steps, and the next one is still to come.
