Robert Sheehan will be returning to play Klaus Hargreeves, who has the supernatural ability to communicate with the dead.
Klaus is a fan favourite character, because his plotlines often take a humorous, if not chaotic, turn.

His character has some of the most emotional moments in the show, however, as he battles his own inner demons and addictions.

Aidan's character, Five, is known for his snarky humour and witty one-liners.

Viewers may recognise Justin H Min from 2023's Beef, alongside Ali Wong, or from the 2023 rom-com Shortcomings.
His Umbrella Academy character, Ben, appears for much of the series as a ghost and has the power to summon tentacles from another dimension.
After the shocking events of series three's finale, fans are eagerly awaiting to find out just what happened to Justin's character.
