What is the plot of My Fault: London?
Noah, a 17-year-old from Florida, moves to London with her mother, Ella, after she marries wealthy businessman William. Their new home is a luxurious mansion, but Noah’s world is further upended when she meets her rebellious stepbrother, Nick. Sparks fly between them, leading to a complicated relationship filled with tension, passion, and secrets.
The film blends romance with high-energy moments, including fast cars, wild parties, and bare-knuckle fights. Co-director Charlotte Fassler highlighted the film’s escapist appeal. “There’s a definite escapist quality to this film and to the love story, and to these thrilling car chases, and the music,” she told Deadline.
“That was something we really wanted, people to come into this movie and have a lot of fun. That’s something within the books that people love, so we definitely wanted to imbue our film with that too,” she added.
While Noah struggles with her growing feelings for Nick, an even greater danger looms. Unbeknownst to her, her estranged father has been released from prison and is watching her every move. She will be forced to confront her past just as she experiences love for the first time.
Based on Mercedes Ron’s bestselling Culpables trilogy (My Fault, Your Fault, Our Fault), My Fault: London relocates the story from Spain to England, offering a fresh take on the beloved series.
Fassler acknowledged the pressure of adapting a fan favorite. “It was actually quite motivating to know that there was such love for these stories and for these characters. We hope that that fanbase will enjoy what we’ve added to that universe, and that it is offering a different flavor of something that is so loved,” she said.

What do the Actors Think About Their Characters and the film?
Asha Banks was immediately drawn to the script and her character. “I read the script. And I just thought it was so fun, exciting, and thrilling and had a bit of everything…and I loved the character," she said. (via whattowatch)
"I think she’s so cool. She’s smart. She’s funny. She’s a racer. She’s a surfer. She feels a lot and I just think she’s really fun and really familiar, but also challenging,” she added.
On Nick and Noah’s dynamic, she added, “I think it’s one of those classic ‘enemies to lovers’ things. It’s that kind of misconstrued tension of ‘Is this hate or is this attraction?’ And it finds its feet throughout the film. I think they both misunderstand each other a lot when they first meet, and then the fun of the film is them shocking each other. I think they both feel this sense of adrenaline when they’re with each other. They set each other off, I think, in different ways. And it ends up happening in a good way.”
Matthew Broome described Nick’s complex personality and struggles. “It’s a wild journey of a film. I think Nick’s quite a troubled person in the beginning. He’s such a privileged person, such success at a young age. His father is super successful. He gets all the girls, he’s the best at racing and best at fighting. So he’s getting all this love, but the one person he feels he doesn’t get it from is his mother and I think he can’t escape that and that’s why he uses these really intense outlets to feel something,” he said.
Co-director Charlotte Fassler reflected on the unique dynamic between the filmmakers and the lead actors. “There was something lovely about the fact that we’re a duo and we were working primarily with these two leads who became a duo in their own right,” she told Deadline.
“It was a first feature for all of us. We all had the same ambitions for it. We formed a deep friendship and bond, which really allowed us to grow those characters together,” she added.
