Alone in the Dark cast: Jodie Comer and David Harbour in full cast list
Film and television heavyweights lend their talents to the Alone in the Dark reboot.
Over 30 years later, Alone in the Dark is back. It's been brought into the modern world as a remake/reimagining, with the classic characters from the 1992 original portrayed by some very familiar faces indeed.
The Alone in the Dark cast is full of famous faces from the worlds of TV, film and games - headlined by none other than Jodie Comer and David Harbour, who you might just know from Killing Eve and Stranger Things, respectively.
To believably portray the protagonists Emily Hartwood and Edward Carnby, Alone in the Dark writer and director Mikael Hedberg (Amnesia: The Dark Descent, SOMA) explained: "We knew early on that we had a character-driven story, so we needed to find some really good actors to make those characters come to life."
Our review of the game claims "Jodie Comer shines" - so maybe, just maybe, they got the casting right.
Joining Comer and Harbour in the full Alone in the Dark cast list, you'll find a bunch of names and voices you might recognise. Let's find out where you might know them from.

Director and writer for the Alone in the Dark remake Mikael Hedberg knew that the character of Emily would be going through the emotional wringer, and needed to find the right actor to really hit this home.
Hedberg reasoned Comer would be the top choice, saying: "Jodie is a fantastic actress and she brings a lot of nuance to Emily as a character and it really makes us sympathise with her."
In true noir fashion, Carnby is a hard-boiled and wisecracking detective, but finds himself succumbing to the dark power that lurks in Derceto.
Hedberg knew Harbour would be the perfect fit, saying: "David has a really strong presence as an actor, and he’s able to make the funny moments really funny, but also the dramatic parts really intense."
