Deadline reports that Harington will be joined by Liv Tyler, who will play Catesby’s cousin Anne Vaux who finds herself in the midst of the conspiracy. The teaser shows that Downton Abbey actor Tom Cullen will play Guy Fawkes, a co-conspirator after whose name the United Kingdom observes 5 November as the Guy Fawkes Day every year. The series will also star Peter Mullan, Edward Holcroft, Shaun Dooley, Robert Emms, Derek Riddell and Mark Gatiss. Gunpowder will be jointly produced by Harington’s Thriker Films and Kudos Productions. It will air in a prime time slot on Saturdays this Fall.
