Two explosive new characters are set to step onto the Coronation Street cobbles in coming weeks.
Sean Ward and Oliver Farnworth have been cast and look to set hearts racing in coming weeks in the respective roles of Kylie Platt's ex Callum and Michael Rodwell's son Gavin.
Oliver Farnworth andSean WardBoth boys have a past that could rile things up in the Platt household, which is already fractured at the best of times.
Sean has already started filming his first few scenes with Paula Lane as bad-lad Callum - Max's father - and viewers will have to wait and see if Kylie's lured back to the past she's escaped once already.
"I am delighted to have been given this unique opportunity to join such a brilliant and much loved show." said Sean.
He continued: "It is a great honour and it will be a professional challenge to play bad-boy Callum. I'm very much looking forward to working closely with Paula."
Producer Stuart Blackburn delved a little deeper into what he'll have to offer: “Sean is already pulling off that holy grail of creating a character that, whilst dark and dangerous, also has a truly infectious charm and he’s going to be a fantastic character.”
On Oliver's character Gavin, Stuart said: “Sexy, confident, engaging and yet still with edge and depth, Oliver as an actor has got it all and I can’t wait to see Gavin light up our screens”.
Coronation Street continues tomorrow night with a double episode on ITV.
