EastEnders reveals first look at Felix Baker's drag persona
About to werk their way on to Albert Square.
BBC soap EastEnders has unveiled the alter-ego of one of its newest additions, Felix Baker (played by Matthew Morrison).
Felix will be heading to the Square alongside brother Finlay (Ashley Byam) and dad Avery (Omar Lye-Fook), who's the brother of Mitch (Roger Griffiths).
The trio are certainly set to stir up the drama in Walford this summer – but they're also bringing lots of fun, too.
Felix has a drag alter-ego, called Tara Misu, and you can get your first look of her below...
Speaking of his exciting new role, Morrison said: “I am blessed to have the opportunity to step into the heels of the fierce Tara Misu as part of my role on EastEnders. It’s a privilege to represent the LGBTQIA+ community and to showcase the creative art of drag to both viewers at home and the residents of Walford.”
