Black Mirror and Friday Night Dinner stars will also be joining in the fantasy fun.
A new fantasy drama is making its way to Disney Plus and RadioTimes.com can reveal further casting, with viewers in for a real treat when the series makes its way onto the streamer.
Written by Happy Valley's Sally Wainwright, Renegade Nell follows a highwaywoman, Nell Jackson (Louisa Harland), who has been framed for murder and must confront a plot against the Queen of England.
The series boasts an impressive cast, including but not limited to Derry Girls' Harland, Nick Mohammed and Adrian Lester. And we can now confirm some additional actors who make guest appearances in Renegade Nell.
Rising star Lenny Rush – who will appear in the next season of Doctor Who as a new character called Morris, and was most recently seen on Taskmaster's New Year Treat – has been confirmed to feature.
Black Mirror and Landscapers actor Daniel Rigby and comedy favourite Mark Heap (Spaced, Friday Night Dinner, Green Wing) will also appear in Renegade Nell.
Speaking last month about the new series, Adrian Lester said that it's "very different for Sally Wainwright".
"She's put political intrigue, sprites, magic, lots of fighting, highway robbery, and Regency England in a big pot, gave it a stir and out came an amazing idea," he explained on The Graham Norton Show. "It is really good writing and I have a really good time being bad."

As well as Lester, Harland will spend a lot of time on screen with Ted Lasso's Nick Mohammed, who stars as Billy Blind, a "plucky sprite who gives her [Nell] fighting superpowers", according to the official synopsis.
The first trailer for Renegade Nell was unveiled last week – take a look at the action below:
