The Man Who Fell to Earth revolves around the alien, also known as Faraday, played by Chiwetel Ejiofor. Faraday leaves his beloved family behind on his dying home planet in hopes of finding a way to save them from destruction, but when he comes to Earth, it seems our planet is on the same trajectory as his own. Ejiofor is best known for his roles i...
The cast is anchored further by the talented Naomie Harris who plays Justin Falls, a single mother constantly working to support her daughter and father, but is close to losing their home despite all of her best efforts. When she meets Faraday, he needs her help to save his family, but she might need his help just as much. Harris is perhaps best kn...
Spencer Clay’s role in The Man Who Fell to Earth is still wrapped in mystery, but he appears to have a keen interest in Faraday’s aspirations to better the world. He’s played by Jimmi Simpson who must be one of the busiest men on television as he seems to appear on our screens left and right. He’s had roles big and small across dozens of different ...

Peters is best known for his role as Det. Lester Freamon in The Wire, which is commonly regarded as one of television’s greatest series. He’s also performed in co...
Rob Delaney has been best known for his comedic roles in films and TV. Viewers would probably recognize him most from his roles in action-comedy films Deadpool 2 and Hobbs and Shaw, but he’s also built a steady career in TV, and The Man Who Fell to Earthis an opportunity to show audiences the work he can do in a dramatic setting. Again, little is k...
The deep well of talent on display in The Man Who Fell to Earth is rounded out by the inclusion of Bill Nighy as Thomas Jerome Newton, the same role played by David Bowie in the 1976 film version. Newton appears to be guiding Faraday in his quest to become acquainted with Earth, but it remains to be seen if this version of the character is a contin...
