What’s On Netflix has updated their ‘What we know so far’ details:-

Who is cast in Department Q?

Department Q Cast

On February 6th, 2024, the main cast of Department Q was revealed.

Alongside the cast reveal, Netflix has also announced the names and descriptions of their roles.

Matthew Goode (The Imitation Game) plays the role of DCI Carl Mork;

“Detective, Carl Morck – brilliant but impossible – has his life turned upside down after a violent incident leaves his partner paralysed and an officer dead. Upon his return to work, he is tasked with setting up Department Q – a new cold case department, which is little more than a PR exercise. At first, being sidelined suits Carl; he’s happy to waste his days playing solitaire and skiving. Yet over the course of the series, Carl’s detective instincts are reawakened, and his new department down in the basement becomes an unlikely magnet for the misfits and mavericks of Chief Super, Moira’s police team.

Chloe Pirrie (The Queen’s Gambit) plays the role of Merritt Lingard;

“Merritt, a ruthless and ambitious prosecutor, has quickly risen the ranks in the Crown Office.  Merritt had a troubled childhood, raised by her absent father on the Isle of Mull.  But after her brother William suffered a severe brain injury, she turned her life around and dedicated her life to him, whilst striving for justice in her role as prosecutor.  However, in the wake of the biggest case of her career, Merritt decides she needs to make a change.  As a result, Merritt and Carl’s paths collide.”

Alexej Manvelov (Chernobyl) plays the role of Akram Salim;

“Akram was an officer in the Syrian police force when civil war broke out. He decided to flee to Europe with his family. Unable to work as a cop in the UK, he petitions for work at Edinburgh’s police station, becoming Carl’s assistant. Akram keeps his past life in Syria private, but as the series goes on, Carl realises he’s underestimated his new partner.”

Kelly Macdonald (No Country for Old Men) as Dr Rachel Irving;

“Dr Rachel Irving is the therapist charged with getting officers back on the front line. She’s smart, and she soon gets the measure of Carl, his trauma and his superiority complex. Intrigued by one another, the two develop a deeper connection across the series.”

Leah Byrne (Deadwater Fell) plays the role of Rose;

“Rose was a top police cadet with a promising future in the force.  But a mental-health-related breakdown during her first year as a detective constable has left her on shaky ground.  Demoted to a desk job, the stigma has followed her ever since.  She appeals to Carl in his new department down in the basement for a chance to prove herself once again.”

Matthew Goode and Teresa Palmer in A Discovery of Witches

Information from ‘Collider’ –

The full 3-season run of the AMC show A Discovery of Witches will be available. Based on the best-selling series by Deborah Harkness, the series is often described as Twilight for adults. Whether or not you agree with that sentiment, following the mystery of reluctant witch Diana Bishop (Teresa Palmer) and the brooding vampire Matthew de Clermont (Matthew Goode), who insists on protecting her, is one to watch. As the pair not only track down a once-hidden alchemical manuscript that possibly holds the origins of their species, they fall in love in a deliciously forbidden romance. Joined by them in their journey are Diana’s aunts: Sarah Bishop (Alex Kingston) and Emily Mather (Valarie Pettiford) as well as Matthew’s own mother Ysabeau de Claremont (Lindsay Duncan) and his vampire son Marcus Whitmore (Edward Bluemel). Now might also be the perfect time to catch up, as author Deborah Harkness has released another installment in the series, Black Bird Oracle.
