‘Sex Education’: Dan Levy Joins Season 4 As Filming Begins
Netflix’s ‘Sex Education‘ may have lost a few faces in the upcoming season, but it will also have some fresh blood, as the streaming service announces Emmy award-winning actor and ‘Schitt’s Creek’ star, Dan Levy has joined the cast as cameras roll on Season 4.
Following the closure of Moordale Secondary, Otis and Eric now face a new frontier – their first day at Cavendish Sixth Form College. Otis is nervous about setting up his new clinic, whilst Eric is praying they won’t be losers again. But Cavendish is a culture shock for all the Moordale students – they thought they were progressive but this new college is another level. There’s daily yoga in the communal garden, a strong sustainability vibe and a group of kids who are popular for being… kind?!
Viv is totally thrown by the college’s student-led, non-competitive approach, while Jackson is still struggling to get over Cal. Aimee tries something new by taking an Art A Level and Adam grapples with whether mainstream education is for him. Over in the US, Maeve is living her dream at prestigious Wallace University, being taught by cult author Thomas Molloy. Otis is pining after her, whilst adjusting to not being an only child at home, or the only therapist on campus…
Levy will play Thomas Molloy, a famous author and Maeve’s US course tutor at her Ivy League college. He joins the returning cast of Asa Butterfield, Gillian Anderson, Ncuti Gatwa, Aimee-Lou Wood, Emma Mackey, Connor Swindells, Kedar Williams-Stirling, Mimi Keene, George Robinson, Chinenye Ezeudu, Dua Saleh, Alistair Petrie and Samantha Spiro.
Other new cast includes Thaddea Graham (‘Doctor Who’), alongside Marie Reuther (‘Kamikaze’) and newcomers Felix Mufti, Anthony Lexa, Alexandra James, Reda Elazouar, Bella Maclean and Imani Yahshua.
