Sid (played by Jean-Baptiste Maunier) is a protagonist in Hellphone. Sid is the central teenage protagonist, infatuated with Angie and initially embarrassed by his lack of a cellphone. After buying the supernatural red phone, he uses it to gain confidence, win Angie’s attention, escape school trouble, and improve his life, but its deadly control forces him to confront the consequences and join Angie and Pierre in destroying it. Angie (played by Jennifer Decker) is a protagonist in Hellphone. Angie is the girl Sid admires and hopes to date. She initially helps him after his failed skateboard stunt and accepts his invitation, but remains connected to Virgile. As the phone begins threatening her, Angie works with Sid and Pierre to stop it, ultimately surviving the ordeal and kissing Sid. Pierre (played by Benjamin Jungers) appears in Hellphone. Pierre, also called Tiger, is Sid’s close friend and practical companion. He encourages Sid to approach Angie, is amazed by the phone’s powers, and worries that Sid is becoming dependent on it. Although the phone refuses to serve him, Pierre remains loyal and helps Sid and Angie destroy it. Virgile (played by Vladimir Consigny) appears in Hellphone. Virgile is Angie’s sort-of boyfriend and a hostile student who watches Sid’s attempts to approach her. He and his friends tease Sid, and he later assaults him after the phone helps Sid gain advantages. Despite their rivalry, Virgile joins Sid, Angie, and Pierre in trying to destroy the dangerous phone. Fritz (played by Christian Hecq) appears in Hellphone. Fritz is Sid’s boss at the fast-food restaurant where Sid works. When Sid asks for his paycheck early to buy a cellphone, Fritz refuses.
