‘The Artful Dodger’ Stars Break Down Lady Belle’s Love Triangle With Dodger & Inspector Boxer

The Artful Dodger is back and making way for a new threat to Jack Dawkins (Thomas Brodie-Sangster) as Port Victory’s new lawman, Inspector Boxer (Luke Bracey), has the Dodger in his crosshairs, as well as a romantic interest in his true love, Lady Belle Fox (Maia Mitchell).

“He’s a very handsome, very competent individual who’s come over to sort out the corruption that’s going on in town,” Brodie-Sangster shares. “So, from a law enforcement perspective, he’s a very annoying [figure] because he’s quite good, and from a love-interest perspective, he’s also very annoying because he’s a very eligible, very nice, courteous gentleman.”

While Season 2 opens with Dodger dodging the noose once more, he’s put under Fagin’s (David Thewlis) charge, with Lady Belle forced to agree to her mother’s condition that she steer clear of him if she wishes to pursue medicine. Inspector Boxer pops up as a sort of roadblock regarding their existing romance, but he’s not like other love-triangle figures.
