Digital Spy has revealed today that actor Nathaniel Parker will join the cast of
Merlin in this year's series to play a pivotal role in the future King Arthur's life. The star of British drama
The Inspector Lynley Mysteries will apparently play Agravaine, known to be the uncle of Arthur and brother to Uther Pendragon. Far from just appearing in one episode, though, it looks like Parker will be here to stay, further sending his nephew towards a reign over Camelot as Uther begins to crumble under his attempts to deal with his daughter Morgana's turn to the dark side and her recent invasion of the kindgom. Other credits Nathaniel has on his list include cameos in
St. Trinian's (2007) and
Narnia: Voyage of the Dawn Treader (2010). The news should come as a welcome surprise to those who are fans of Parker's work and the fantasy drama, a nice additional piece of information regarding Series 4 after the recent announcement that the season will run for the full thirteen weeks, not ten as previously reported.
Merlin is back for its next run this Winter.
