She's not supposed to be twenty-five years older than the youngest kids on the line, though...
Cassie is supposed to be 32 (according to the ACL "bible"). She is the contemporary of Zach, Shelia and Bobby, so she's not supposed to be that much "older" than everyone else. Afterall, she says in the script that she's only been gone from Broadway for 2 years.
Charlotte looks alot older than the actresses playing Diana, Judy, and Val - i.e. the other "girls" who "make it," which does make it a little less believable that Zach would really pick her to be a part of that small chorus of women.
That doesn't mean she won't be great. But she is too old for the role. There is no denying that.
