**Who will star in The Crow Girl?**

Eve Myles (Hijack, Keeping Faith) will star as DCI Kilburn and Katherine Kelly (Mr Bates vs The Post Office, Innocent) will play Sophia Craven.

Myles said: “Jeanette is such a compelling character. As soon as I read the script, I knew I wanted to explore her story in more detail. It’s been a really terrific first few weeks on set working alongside a team of such incredible talented people.”

Also joining the cast are Dougray Scott (Deep Impact) as DI Lou Stanley, Clara Rugaard (I Am Mother) as Victoria Burkeman, Victoria Hamilton (The Crown) as Superintendent Verity Pound, Elliot Edusah (1917) as DC Mike Dilliston, Chloe Sweetlove (Our Fathers) as Madeleine Burkeman and Lee Boardman (Outlander) as David White.

“I’m delighted to get started on this absorbing story,” said Kelly. “The book is thrilling and [screenwriter] Milly Thomas’s scripts are even better, and I am excited to start unpicking the character of Sophia as events in the series unfold.”

**When will The Crow Girl be released?**

The six-part series began filming in Bristol this month so it’s likely to be a while before The Crow Girl is available to watch. We’ll keep you posted…
