Big cast for Outcasts

The Beeb have invested quite a bit of budget to land big names for their new supernatural drama, Outcasts.

Spooks' Hermione Norris, Battlestar Galactica's Jamie Bamber, Ashes To Ashes' Daniel Mays and Ugly Betty's Eric Mabius have all signed up to appear in the series which follows a group of people trying to build a life on a newly discovered planet, Carpathia.

But as the outcasts lose contact with the Earth, they realise a mysterious threat is lurking on their new home.

Ben Stephenson, Controller, BBC Drama Commissioning, said: "Outcasts is a richly intelligent, character-led drama full of big ideas about what it is to be human told through thrilling and surprising stories that could only appear in this show. Ben Richards has created a remarkable world peopled with compelling characters, and it is hugely exciting that this amazing cast is going to bring it to life."
