Ross Kemp is set to reprise his iconic role as Grant Mitchell in EastEnders for the show’s milestone anniversary in 2025
London: So, guess what? Ross Kemp is coming back to EastEnders! He’ll be reprising his role as Grant Mitchell for the show’s big 40th anniversary next year. How cool is that?
He last popped up in 2016, but now he’s set to return in 2025. The BBC is keeping the details under wraps, but they promise it’ll be “explosive.” Sounds intriguing, right?
Grant’s coming back just as his brother Phil is feeling a bit lonely. Plus, their childhood buddy Nigel is back in town after nearly 30 years. Talk about a reunion!
Ross is super excited about his return. He said it means a lot to him, especially with the show hitting such a special milestone. He’s ready to make a splash, that’s for sure!
And get this—Grant’s ex-wife Sharon is now dating his cousin Teddy. Remember the whole “Sharongate” drama? It’s one of the most talked-about storylines in the show’s history.
Grant has been part of some classic moments in EastEnders, like his rocky marriage to Tiffany. His last return was pretty emotional, too, as he said goodbye to his mum Peggy.
He first joined the show back in 1990 and left in 1999 after some serious family drama. But he’s always been a fan favorite, and it’s great to see him back!
Chris Clenshaw, the executive producer, is thrilled about Ross’s return. He hinted that Grant’s comeback will be a big deal for the anniversary and will lead to some must-see TV moments.
While he was away from the soap, Ross has been busy with his documentary series, exploring all sorts of topics. But now, it’s back to Walford for him!
