Malcolm Mcdowell Samson Kayo Emma Darcy More Join Amazon Prime Videos Truth Seekers

Amazon Prime Video has announced a wave of new cast additions for its upcoming supernatural comedy series Truth Seekers, with several high profile names joining the project ahead of its release.

Veteran actor Malcolm McDowell is among the most notable additions to the cast. McDowell brings decades of screen experience to the series, adding further weight to a project that already boasts a strong creative pedigree and growing anticipation.

He is joined by Samson Kayo, whose rise in British comedy has seen him move rapidly into high profile television roles. Kayo’s involvement signals a continued emphasis on comedy within the series’ supernatural framework.

Also confirmed is Emma D’Arcy, who adds further dramatic range to the ensemble. D’Arcy’s casting suggests the show will balance humour with darker and more emotionally grounded storytelling as its mystery unfolds.

Truth Seekers is created by and stars Nick Frost and Simon Pegg, marking another collaboration between the pair following their work together on Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz and The World’s End. Pegg also serves as an executive producer on the series.

The show follows a team of part time paranormal investigators who uncover a conspiracy that threatens humanity itself. Blending comedy, horror and science fiction, Truth Seekers is positioned as a genre crossing series that leans on character driven humour alongside eerie and unsettling moments.

Amazon Prime Video has increasingly invested in original UK productions, and Truth Seekers forms part of that wider strategy to attract audiences with distinctive homegrown content. The addition of established performers alongside rising talent reflects a deliberate effort to broaden the show’s appeal.

Filming on the series has been taking place in the UK, with the expanded cast expected to play key roles as the narrative develops. While specific character details have not yet been revealed, the range of talent involved suggests a mix of eccentric, comedic and potentially sinister roles.

With Malcolm McDowell, Samson Kayo and Emma D’Arcy now confirmed alongside an already high profile creative team, Truth Seekers continues to build momentum ahead of its debut. The series is shaping up to be one of Amazon Prime Video’s most talked about British releases, combining recognisable stars with an offbeat supernatural premise.
