"We knew this year was going to be especially tough because of the various cast changes," Whithouse wrote last week in his blog. "Not only would it be our first series without Aidan, but Russell had decided his "Being Human" journey was also coming to an end. The mountain before us seemed even higher than usual.
A New Team
Damien Molony as Hal
Michael Socha as Tom
"The thing I'm most proud of is the new set of characters," Whithouse wrote. "Damien Molony joins the team as Hal. Hand on heart, I think he's one of the most exciting and versatile actors of his generation. Watching his performance grow over the filming was a joy. Then there's Michael Socha. Promoted from semi-reg to lead cast. If you thought he was good in Series 3, you ain't seen nothing yet. Michael will break your heart this year. And of course beautiful Lenora. Our star. The heart of the show. And this year she gives a truly breathtaking performance."
The Eve of War
Season 4 also looks to escalate the fight against the vampire contingent. But the stories won't be wall-to-wall war, as Hal, Annie, and Tom will also be encountering "a sort-of new kind of supernatural" creature, according to Whithouse's veiled blog commentary.
The supporting cast for this new era is also new names leavened by the occasional familiar face from the show's past. Several castin decisions have been announced, including:
•Doctor Who writer and Sherlock star and co-creator Mark Gatiss,
•Harry Potter's Mark Williams (Arthur Weasley) as a character named Regus,
•Craig Roberts (Submarine) reprising his role as teen vampire Adam from season 1,
•Alex Jennings (Prince Charles in The Queen),
•James Lance (No Heroics, Teachers),
•Alex Griffin as Griffin,
•Andrew Gower as Cutler,
•Amanda Abbington (Case Histories),
•Selina Griffiths (Benidorm), and
•Ellie Kendrick (Upstairs Downstairs, Anne in the recent Masterpiece miniseries The Diary of Anne Frank).
