Serkis, who voices the wolf, is joined in the cast by T\u2019Nia Miller (<em>Sex Education<\/em>, <em>Years and Years<\/em>) and newcomer Iris Onyejiuwa.<\/p>\n<p>Other cast members include Keith Wickham, Harriet Carmichael, Tibby Radcliffe, Hal Radcliffe and Mackenzie Bruce-Lockhart.<\/p>\n<p><em>A Lamb\u2019s Stew<\/em> is helmed by Joeri Christiaen (<em>Mush-Mush<\/em>, <em>My Knight and Me<\/em>) as director and art director. Christiaen also wrote the film and worked alongside Claire Paoletti (<em>Shoom\u2019s Odyssey<\/em>) as story consultant during the project\u2019s initial development phase and Julia Smuts Louw (<em>Star Wars: Visions\u2014Aau\u2019s Song<\/em>, <em>The Smeds and the Smoos<\/em>) as script editor for the final script. The special is being produced via the open-source software Blender.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAndy Serkis\u2019s work, particularly on Caesar in <em>Planet of the Apes<\/em>, was a source of inspiration for writing the character of the wolf\u2013although I didn\u2019t dare imagine that he would one day play the role,\u201d Christiaen said. \u201cAs for T\u2019Nia Miller, the quality of her performance in the teaser led me to make Miss Shearlington a central character in the story. I\u2019m equally honored to be working with Iris Onyejiuwa, who is playing her very first role in the film.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>La Cabane and Thuristar have set the voice cast for their special A Lamb\u2019s Stew, with Andy Serkis (The Lord of the Rings, Black Panther) starring as one of the leads.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1412,"featured_media":29501,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[9932,10765,9934,4848,776],"class_list":["post-29500","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-a-lambs-stew","tag-andy-serkis","tag-joeri-christiaen","tag-la-cabane","tag-thuristar","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Andy Serkis Joins A Lamb\u2019s Stew Cast - TVKIDS<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/andy-serkis-joins-a-lambs-stew-cast\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Andy Serkis Joins A Lamb\u2019s Stew Cast - TVKIDS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"La Cabane and Thuristar have set the voice cast for their special A Lamb\u2019s Stew, with Andy Serkis (The Lord of the Rings, Black Panther) starring as one of the leads.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/andy-serkis-joins-a-lambs-stew-cast\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVKIDS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2025-04-21T14:03:51+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2025-04-21T14:03:57+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2025\/04\/LaCabane-ALambsStew-0425.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"475\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"292\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Jamie Stalcup\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Jamie Stalcup\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/andy-serkis-joins-a-lambs-stew-cast\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/andy-serkis-joins-a-lambs-stew-cast\/\",\"name\":\"Andy Serkis Joins A Lamb\u2019s Stew Cast - TVKIDS\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2025-04-21T14:03:51+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2025-04-21T14:03:57+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#\/schema\/person\/0da12602224807cc7b179b8405018deb\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/andy-serkis-joins-a-lambs-stew-cast\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/andy-serkis-joins-a-lambs-stew-cast\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/andy-serkis-joins-a-lambs-stew-cast\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Andy Serkis Joins A Lamb\u2019s Stew Cast\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/\",\"name\":\"TVKIDS\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#\/schema\/person\/0da12602224807cc7b179b8405018deb\",\"name\":\"Jamie Stalcup\",\"description\":\"Jamie Stalcup is the executive editor of World Screen.
