With a line-up like that, viewers are already certain that Adolescence is one show they don't want to miss.
But if you need more persuasion to tune into the thrilling series when it's finally released at some point next year, maybe these stills from the show will help sway you.
Netflix shared a series of pictures which hint at the action that Adolescence has in store for us, which has stirred up tons of excitement among fans.
In a post on X, the streaming platform wrote: "It follows the unflinching, one-shot story of a 13-year-old boy who is arrested for the murder of a teenage girl. Arriving next year on Netflix."
If you don't already have Netflix, you'll be pleased to hear that Sky is currently offering a mega TV bundle with Netflix included for just £19 a month - it's cheapest ever bundle - as part of its early Black Friday sale.
Let's unpack what we know about the series so far.
Graham has teamed up with his longtime collaborators Philip Barantini and Jack Thorne to produce Adolescence, while Brad Pitt is also one of the executive producers.
You see how this is shaping up to be an absolute showstopper?
Anyway, the series tells the story of a 13-year-old lad Jamie Miller (played by Owen Cooper), who gets arrested for the murder of a girl at his school.
Boiling Point star Graham portrays his father and the 'appropriate' adult, Eddie Miller, who is allowed to sit in on his interviews while he is being grilled by cops.
Walters will play a detective inspector Luke Bascombe, who is tasked with getting to the bottom of the grisly crime, while Chloe star Doherty will appear as a clinical psychologist Briony Ariston.
Other notable names include Game of Thrones' Faye Marsay, Happy Valley alum Mark Stanley, After Life actress Jo Hartley and The Responder's Christine Tremarco.
Although the stellar cast has set tongues wagging, the fact that Adolescence is being filmed in one continuous take has also impressed Netflix connoisseurs.
It's not the first time Graham has experimented with this one-shot style, as he and Barantini also used this method while shooting the BBC's hit show Boiling Point.
The actor wrote and created Adolescence alongside Thorne, who he has previously worked with on the likes of Help and The Virtues.
Netflix have been shooting the show since July this year, including in various spots across South Kirkby and Sheffield.
There's no trailer for Adolescence just yet, but keep your eyes peeled.
