Andrew Koji (Warrior), Richard Dormer (Game of Thrones) and T’Nia Miller (Fall of the House of Usher) have boarded the upcoming season of Gangs of London, according to Deadline.
The pair join the likes of Phil Daniels and Ruth Sheen in the anticipated third season of the Sky and AMC+ series, which is produced by Pulse Films.
Koji will play an unnamed assassin at the heart of the unfolding mystery across the series. Cornelius Quinn, played by Dormer, is a face from the past whose arrival awakens old rivalries for Marian Wallace and Ed Dumani. Miller takes on the role of the formidable new Mayor of London set to wreak havoc for the gangs.
Season kicks off with ex-undercover cop Elliot Carter, played by Ṣọpẹ́ Dìrísu, now operating as a top-level criminal alongside the Dumanis, but their business is thrown into chaos when their shipment of cocaine is spiked, resulting in the deaths of hundreds of civilians all over London.
Created by Gareth Evans and Matt Flannery, Gangs of London follows the struggles between rival gangs and other criminal organizations in present-day London. It has been a big hit for Sky, and AMC has been co-producing since Season 2.
