AJ BlackHOST
... who is ... won't do it for a reason I'll explain, but another one I always thought would be brilliant was James Norton from Happy Valley.
Mark McManusGUEST
Mm.
AJ BlackHOST
Well known mainly from Happy Valley, um, where he made his name as the Tommy Lee Royce.
Ken PetrieGUEST
We did a week of rehearsal, so they had this kind of bonding experience before the, before the shoot started, and they just clicked, and they were all enjoying being out in Glasgow together and on this, on this six-week adventure.
Ken PetrieGUEST
But yeah, the casting of James Norton and Jessica Gunning as those kind of cringe a bit much, like sparky dynamic, um, parents is such good fun as well.
Ken PetrieGUEST
And, and, you know, I think if, if we're opening our...
Ken PetrieGUEST
the film with an Olivia Dean track and-
Lauren BarryHOST
He's been the number one for such a long time, but I do think he's far too old now.
Lauren BarryHOST
James Norton, Callum Turner and Martin Comston.
Nick KellyHOST
Martin, sorry, Martin Comston was in the running.
Nick KellyHOST
Who's that? He's from Line of Duty.
Charlotte IversGUEST
yeah no
Ed VaizeyHOST
no no the other one uh one It had James Norton in it as the psychotic killer.
Ed VaizeyHOST
But it was just amazingly kind of compelling human drama.
Ed VaizeyHOST
But you presumably, James, will get behind Charlotte just as she got behind you on classical literature by saying lazy TV dramas.

We are getting a major casting addition this season.

James Norton is officially joining the cast to play Ormund Hightower.
speaker_1HOST
who is a vital, vital player in the overarching conflict.
speaker_0HOST
Right.
speaker_1HOST
Exactly.
speaker_1HOST
You no longer have the luxury of a slow burn.
speaker_1HOST
Every single scene James Norton is in has to flawlessly execute three things simultaneously.
speaker_0HOST
He has to do heavy lifting.
TonyHOST
Who plays Orman? I forgot his name is.
MinwaHOST
James Norton.
TonyHOST
Yes, he's great.
TonyHOST
Tommy Flanagan for USA.
EmHOST
Meanwhile, Larry Gelbert, who made Tootsie, came on board as a writer.
EmHOST
In 1996, Chicago was revived on Broadway, starring Anne Reinking as Roxy, Bebe Neuwirth as Velma and James Norton as Billy Flynn.
EmHOST
This time, the show got rave reviews.
EmHOST
So with a new screenplay by Gelbert and a hit revival on Broadway, Chicago suddenly looked like hot movie property.
JoshHOST
You know, like, so I think that was a misstep.
JoshHOST
And then we also have a thing where we see with, um, one of the Hightowers there, Ormund Hightower, who's played by James Norton-
KristinaGUEST
Mm-hmm
JoshHOST
... who, um, he's, uh, shielded himself into a, uh, town there where the citizens there that are supposed to be under the protection, um, of Rhaenyra.
ManuHOST
Uh, Freddie Fox, we both talked about, has been a delight throughout.
ManuHOST
Um, and James Norton, the new cast member.
ManuHOST
We'll talk about more of the cast later on, but those are just some names to highlight.
ManuHOST
Um, visually this season, um, like I've said many times, I felt it was a bit uneven.
22 MINS LATER
ManuHOST
They've actually given him meaningful stuff to do.
ManuHOST
Um, so I think that really helps.
ManuHOST
Um, and then Freddie Fox and James Norton, our Hightower boys, um, they were a delight.
ManuHOST
Um, even when some of the plotting was goofy, I think those two were just always on the top of the game.
