The announcement comes alongside the release of an official trailer and a star-studded special screening at The Everyman in Edinburgh, Scotland, where the cast reunited to celebrate the show’s return.
Returning favorites Iain Glen, Martin Compston, Emily Hampshire, Rochenda Sandall, and Mark Addy join an expanded ensemble cast that includes Ross Anderson, Jacob Fortune-Lloyd, and Alice Krige.

The series continues to intertwine urgent global themes with gripping storytelling, offering viewers spectacular settings and thought-provoking drama.
