Variety has released a first-look image of Fear the Walking Dead actor Frank Dillane in his next role in the movie Urchin. He will star alongside Megan Northam, known for Rabia and Meanwhile on Earth.

The film, developed by BBC, is the directorial debut of actor Harris Dickenson, who also wrote the film and is well remembered for his roles in Babygirl, The Iron Claw, and more. Urchin is currently in post production and will be featured in European Film Market in Berlin, with Charades launching sales.

Dillane portrays a drifter named Mike who, according to Dickenson, lacks structure and has great difficulty participating in society. “It’s about the people that fall between the cracks. It’s about mental health and about the ways in which the system fails people in certain ways.”

Karyna Khymchuk, Amr Waked, and Shonagh Marie have been announced as joining Dillane and Northam.

Dillane did an incredible job portraying heroin addict turned hero Nick Clark in Fear the Walking Dead. His season 4 death came as quite a shock to viewers as he had quickly become a fan-favorite. All eight seasons of FTWD are available on Netflix.

In 2021, Dillane appeared in several episodes of the third season of The Girlfriend Experience. He also starred in the 2022 movie The Essex Serpent with Claire Danes, Tom Hiddleston, and Daryl Dixon actress Clémence Poésy, which is streaming on Apple TV+.

Next, he starred as Charles Devereux, aka Isambard Tulley, a wanted highwayman, in the Disney+ adventure series Renegade Nell. The story is set in a fantasy version of 18th Century England and Nell Jackson (Louisa Harland) is an infamous highwaywoman. It is a great series that sadly, was canceled after one season.
