British actor Holliday Grainger has been cast as Robin Ellacott opposite Tom Burke’s Cormoran Strike, in a major new TV series for BBC One. The Strike Series will be produced as three separate event dramas set to begin shooting in November across London.


Holliday Grainger said “I’m thrilled to be joining the talented creative team behind ‘The Strike Series’, especially with the role of Robin Ellacott. Her grounded strength and intelligence is going to be a joy to explore. I can’t wait to dive straight into the wit and grit of Strike’s cannily well observed London.”
