Cast and Crew

The new series is being created by Rowan Atkinson and Johnny English writer William Davies. Sticking to the same theme, the director of Man vs Bee, David Kerr, also had Johnny English as his debut film.

Moving onto the cast, the blundering Trevor (Rowan Atkinson) and his arch enemy, a CGI bee, will dominate the screen time. However, there will be some other characters, all played by notable stars. 

The owner of the swanky house will be played by Jing Lusi (‘Crazy Rich Asians’) and Notting Hill’ actor Julian Rhind-Tutt will play her husband. Claudie Blakely (Pride and Prejudice) will take on the role of Trevor’s ex wife, whilst Greg Mchugh plays the Gardener. We also have Chizzy Akudolo as the judge and Aysha Kala as the detective.
