Harry Potter, Doctor Who and James Bond favourites to star in new Channel 4 thriller “packed with twists and turns”

Channel 4 revealed the cast for its upcoming thriller, Wrong Move, featuring stars like Eve Myles, Rory Kinnear, and David Thewlis.

I just finished watching this incredible new series, and I have to tell you, it’s a wild ride! It’s written by Ben Edwards, who did ‘Coma,’ and it’s this really dark and funny thriller. The story centers around three families trying to move up the property ladder, but they quickly realize someone seriously dangerous is controlling everything from the very top. It’s seriously gripping!

Channel 4 promises a show full of surprises that explores the idea that a new home doesn’t always solve problems.

David Thewlis, known for his role in the Harry Potter films, will play Trevor, a dangerous and unpredictable character. Meanwhile, Rory Kinnear, famous for playing James Bond villains, will portray Michael, a homebuyer struggling with a frustrating and collapsing house sale. Eve Myles, recognized from Doctor Who and Torchwood, will play Michael’s wife, Catherine.

David Bradley, known for his role in Game of Thrones, will play Trevor’s father, Arthur. Austin Haynes (from Adolescence) will play Jack, the son of Michael and Catherine, and Daisy Morgan (from Giant) will play their daughter.

Eleanor Tomlinson, known from “One Day,” will play Stella, a woman buying a house. She and her partner, Gwyneth Keyworth (from “Lost Boys & Fairies”), are upset when their home purchase falls into jeopardy due to issues with the buying chain.

Ali Khan, known for “Everyone Else Burns,” will play Asif, a hopeful first-time homebuyer whose plans for a new life with his partner, Emily (played by Evie Kaisi), are disrupted. Ray Fearon, from “Tinsel Town,” will portray Emily’s father, Danny.
