Other cast members include Steven Elder as Bishop Bedwin, Andrew Gower as Sansum, Aneirin Hughes as Gorfydd, Emily John as Ceinwyn, Tatjana Nardone as Ladwyss, Ken Nwosu as Sagramor, and Billy Postlethwaite as Cadwys.

Otto Bathurst is a director and executive producer on The Winter King alongside Toby Leslie. Kate Brooke and Ed Whitmore adapted Cornwell’s Warlord Chronicles as executive producers.
