Top Boy's Ashley Walters has also been officially confirmed as Josh Buchanan, having been spotted filming earlier this year.
The series' full synopsis reads: "Eleven years ago Detective Kat Donovan's fiancé Josh - the love of her life - disappeared and she's never heard from him since.
"Now, swiping profiles on a dating app, she suddenly sees his face and her world explodes all over again. Josh's reappearance will force her to dive back into the mystery surrounding her father’s murder and uncover long-buried secrets from her past."

As well as the aforementioned stars, Missing You will star Fool Me Once's Richard Armitage, EastEnders' Jessica Plummer, The Rings of Power's Lenny Henry, Inside No.9's Steve Pemberton and Sexy Beast's Paul Kaye.
Speaking recently to Digital Spy, Armitage suggested that the series could drop early next year.
"I think it will be in the same slot [as Fool Me Once] next year, I think it will be on January 1. At a guess!" he said.
"I'm playing the detective chief inspector opposite an old friend of mine, who I did Uncle Vanya with, Rosalind Eleazar, who is the lead actress in this show. And she is brilliant, she's absolutely brilliant."
Missing You will stream on Netflix.
