Two of Agatha Christie‘s most iconic characters are about to get a modern makeover. Agatha Christie’s Tommy & Tuppence reimagines the legendary author’s adventurous amateur sleuths for a contemporary audience for the first time, as the crime-solving duo prepares to make its debut on BritBox on September 15.

One of the challenges of stepping into Agatha Christie’s world is that some characters arrive with decades of cultural recognition attached to them. But for Tommy and Tuppence stars Josh Dylan and Antonia Thomas, the appeal wasn’t necessarily tied to the pair’s literary legacy. When speaking to TV Insider at the ATX TV Festival, Thomas even admitted that, before landing the role, she was far more familiar with Christie’s other famous creations.
