This latest news for Saleh is proof of their imminent pop culture takeover that's been broiling since the release of Nūr last January. They released a follow-up, Rosetta, in June and, as evident in this new casting, are making an impact that's being felt on a broader scale.
Joining them on the cast is Jason Isaacs, who was casted in the Harry Potter franchise as Lucius Malfoy, and Jemima Kirke, who starred in HBO's hit series Girls. Isaacs will play Peter Groff, the successful older brother of Mr. Groff, while Kirke is set to play Hope, a former student at Moordale who has become the headmistress and has big plans for the school to return to, what she thinks, its former excellence.
It's too early, of course, to know exactly when Sex Education will return, but Deadlinereports that it'll be back sometime in 2021. That's permitting no new COVID-19-related developments, so don't get your hopes too high.
