FORMER EastEnders star Sam Strike has landed a major new role in America - opposite Queen Latifah. The actor - who played Johnny Carter in the BBC soap - will appear in When the Streetlights Go On from new streaming service Quibi.
EW describes the series as: "When a beautiful young girl is killed, her sister and high school peers struggle to retain a sense of normalcy as their suburban community reels and the murder investigation proceeds. "The cast includes It's Chosen Jacobs, Sophie Thatcher (Chicago Med), and Sam Strike (Chernobyl), along with Queen Latifah, Tony Hale, and Mark Duplass." The 25-year-old star was the first actor to take on the role of Danny Dyer's onscreen son, winning praise at the time for Johnny's emotional coming out.
