'The Tutor Trap' Cast: Everything to Know About the Characters and the Actors Behind Them
In "The Tutor Trap," a star hockey player and a shy student strike an unusual deal that leads to tutoring, flirting lessons, and an unexpected romance.
High school dramas often tread familiar territory, but "The Tutor Trap" brings a fresh twist to the classic "opposites attract" storyline. At its core, the movie follows the unexpected connection between Brady Wilder, a charming hockey star, and Harper Hawney, a studious wallflower.

What starts as a tutoring arrangement quickly evolves into a whirlwind of romance, laughter, and unexpected chemistry. Here's everything you need to know about the main characters and the actors who bring them to life.
Harper Hawney a.k.a. Honey – Played by Jenna Gilmer
Harper Hawney, affectionately nicknamed Honey, embodies the typical bookish student. With her glasses and signature ponytail, she radiates nerdy charm.
Harper's world revolves around academics, leaving her largely inexperienced when it comes to dating or flirting. This naivety often makes her an easy target for mean-spirited cheerleaders and pretentious boys, including the sly Jack Hudson, who almost ensnares her in one scene.
Enter Brady Wilder. Harper's life takes a surprising turn when she agrees to tutor Brady in chemistry. In exchange, he promises to be her fake boyfriend, teach her how to flirt, and even help her pursue her own crush.

What begins as a practical arrangement slowly transforms into a deeper, romantic connection, sparking both tension and chemistry that keeps audiences hooked. Jenna Gilmer's portrayal of Harper brings a relatable mix of vulnerability, intelligence, and charm, making Honey a character you can't help but root for.
Brady Wilder a.k.a. Puckhead – Played by Luke Dodge
Brady Wilder, nicknamed Puckhead, is the typical high school heartthrob. As the school's star hockey player, he's got the looks, the confidence, and the charm to attract attention wherever he goes.
Yet beneath his cocky exterior lies a student struggling to balance his athletic life with academics. Facing an ultimatum from his hockey coach to improve his grades, Brady enlists Harper to help him get back on track.
Brady isn't just academically challenged; he's also navigating the complexities of relationships. What starts as playful banter and casual "hook-ups" with Harper gradually deepens into something more meaningful.

Luke Dodge brings a perfect blend of charm, humor, and intensity to Brady, making him more than just a stereotypical "bad boy." Fans of his previous work will recognize him from ReelShort's "Straight A Pregnancy" and the short drama "Don't Miss Me When I'm Gone," where he showcased similar charisma and range.
Why "The Tutor Trap" Stands Out
High school dramas are often filled with clichés, but "The Tutor Trap" manages to feel fresh and engaging. The story cleverly flips expectations: the shy, academically focused student takes the lead in teaching the popular athlete, and their evolving relationship adds depth to the familiar "tutor-turned-romance" plotline.
With a mix of humor, flirtation, and heartfelt moments, the film offers both lighthearted fun and surprisingly sincere storytelling.
Whether you're a fan of teen dramas, romantic comedies, or just great character dynamics, "The Tutor Trap" delivers a charming, entertaining experience. Jenna Gilmer and Luke Dodge bring Harper and Brady to life with authenticity and charisma, making their story one worth watching.
