Ray Winstone’s upcoming Prime Video<\/a> action-comedy Danger Money has added a slew of exciting names to its cast, as filming gets under way in Malta.<\/p>\n

Doctor Who<\/a> and A Discovery of Witches star Alex Kingston and Game of Thrones<\/a> actor Iain Glen have both joined the ensemble of the six-part series, which is produced by The Tourist<\/a> and The Assassin<\/a> creators Harry and Jack Williams.<\/p>\n

They are joined by rising talent Arian Nik (Count Abdulla, Daddy Issues, Film Club) and Mimi Keene (Sex Education, Towards Zero), who complete the line-up alongside Winstone, whose recent credits include The Gentlemen<\/a>, Damsel and Sexy Beast.<\/p>\n

Kara Tointon (EastEnders<\/a>), Sean Pertwee (Gotham, Dog Soldiers, The Siege) and co-creator and co-writer Oliver Maltman (Red Eye, Lockerbie: A Search for Truth) will also star in the series.<\/p>\n

Winstone plays Alan ‘Razor’ Sharp, a former SAS operative haunted by a botched mission in the ’90s that left his reputation in tatters and his best friend dead.<\/p>\n

Decades later, still plagued by guilt and desperate to rebuild a relationship with his daughter, Razor is pulled back into the world he had left behind when an old friend, played by Pertwee, resurfaces with a job too good to refuse.<\/p>\n

Razor travels to Italy, only for events to spiral. Forced on the run with a motley crew made up of his impulsive “nephew” Jamaal (Nik) and secretive tag-along Roxy (Kingston), he is thrust into a violent conspiracy involving hidden war spoils, corrupt institutions and powerful enemies determined to keep the past buried.<\/p>\n

Tointon stars as Maggie, Winstone’s on-screen daughter, with Maltman as Maggie’s partner Gavin and Keene as the mysterious Ana. Glen plays a pal from Razor’s younger days.<\/p>\n

Kingston described her character Roxy as “a character who keeps you guessing”, adding: “She swings from intelligent and professional determination on the surface to emotional complexity beneath.<\/p>\n

“The adventure she finds herself on leads her to a greater, empathetic understanding of the human condition. The scripts balance action, humour and heart brilliantly, and getting to play opposite such an exceptional cast is really exciting.”<\/p>\n

Nik added: “I’m buzzing to be joining this production. The scripts are hilarious, full of twists and a lot of heart. Ray and Alex are both legends in their own right and it’s an absolute honour to be sharing this journey with them.”<\/p>\n
