Tom Burke - Cormoran Strike 

Perhaps best known for BBC's we adore Tom as the gruff, war veteran detective. He opened up about how Cormoran's relationship with his ex Charlotte will play a bigger part in the new series, explaining: "It’s not immediately obvious why somebody like Strike would get so caught up with somebody like Charlotte. 

"But I suspect a lot of his behaviour is to do with a kind of comfort or insulation - he likes his stodgy food, his beer, and he’s had this strange, painful childhood which is still a raw nerve. His relationship with Charlotte is like somebody wilfully running towards pain." 

Holliday Grainger - Robin Ellacott

Holliday is brilliant as the up-and-coming sleuth Robin, and is also well known for her roles in and Speaking about the show's love triangle between Robin's husband Matthew and Cormoran, she said: "I think we’re all just rooting for her and Strike, aren’t we? She and Matthew have to end. 

"And maybe that’s because she’s growing into the person she’s meant to become, doing the work she was meant to. Something she’s brilliant at, passionate about, and which Matthew has been totally unsupportive of from the very start. We see their relationship begin to strain from the very moment she takes the job and starts to become the person she wants to be. The person she is."

Sophie, or Lady Frederick Windsor, is both a member of the royal family and an actress! Chatting to HELLO! about her role in Strike, she said: "Strike was a fabulous experience.
