The former Home and Away actress, who left the Australian soap three months ago, has been cast alongside Stephen Curry, ex-Neighbours star Daniel MacPherson and Brendan Gleeson in The Cup.

Curry has been cast as Damien, MacPherson as Jason, while Gordon will play Damien's partner Trish.
Filming at Melbourne's Flemington Racecourse is scheduled to start tomorrow.
