closed event.

A young woman works for a producer and HBO. She is a makeup artist and assistant to the actors.

This is an awards event, so to speak. Inside, there will be various stars, producers, directors, and filmmakers from England and America who will be receiving awards. It will be held in a large building with music tables, etc. I was invited because I'm a huge fan of the series and was given the opportunity to meet the actors and producers in person.

Roger in the TV series "Lord of the Flies" (2026) was played by Thomas Connor *.

What is known about the actor

• Casting. *Like most of the guys in the project, Thomas got into the series through a large-scale open casting for teenagers aged 10-13 without much acting experience (it was conducted by Nina Gold).
• The role. *In the structure of the series, where each of the 4 episodes shows the events through the eyes of one of the key characters, Roger's storyline provides a perspective on "inner cruelty" - through his perception, it is especially clear how social taboos are crumbling on the island.
• Filmography. At the moment, this role is one of the first notable works in his career; major projects before "Lord of the Flies" are not recorded in open sources.

Ike Talbut as Simon. His performance is built on a restrained, quiet energy—in the series' structure (where each episode tells the story through the eyes of one character), Simon's character arc provides the most mystical and unsettling perspective.

David McKenna as Piggy. David also made it through the casting process among actors without much acting experience; Piggy's character in this version is given a more three-dimensional feel by portraying the character's inner world.

Lox Pratt as Jack. Lox also landed the role through the same open casting call. The role of Jack proved to be his breakout role; he was later cast as Draco Malfoy in HBO's upcoming Harry Potter series (this is often in the news, so his name is now a household name).

Winston Sawyers as Ralph. This is one of Winston's first notable TV roles; the casting was part of a large-scale open call for teenagers aged 10-13 with no prior experience (it was conducted by Nina Gold, known for her work on Game of Thrones).

Producing career. Callum began his career in film and TV as an assistant producer (on Fortitude, 2015–2018). He then steadily rose through the ranks, becoming an episode producer on Hanna (2019–2021), Sex Education (2019–2023), and World on Fire (2019–2023). In 2026, he served as one of the producers on Lord of the Flies (4 episodes). He was later also invited to serve as an episode producer on the spy thriller Black Doves (since 2024).
