Cast Rumours and New Additions
While the core trio is expected to return, rumours suggest new high-profile actors could join the cast. No official announcements have been made, but fans are already speculating about possible villains and allies.
When Could Filming Begin?
If commissioned, production would likely start in late 2024 or early 2025, with a potential release in late 2025 or early 2026. However, scheduling conflicts and script development could impact timelines.
For now, fans will have to wait for an official update from the BBC or Mercurio. One thing’s certain: if Line of Duty returns, it’ll be must-watch television.
