Lyra, who is devastated by her best friend Roger's death (Lewin Lloyd), embarks on a journey when she comes across a young boy named Will (Amir Wilson), who helps Lyra overcome her traumas. Lyra and Will soon realise that their destinies are intertwined, and as they set out to search for Will's father, they are interrupted by a war that starts to brew around them.

Other than Dafne, Ruth, Amir, and Lloyd, His Dark Materials Season 2 also starred Ariyon Bakare, Andrew Scott, Will Keen, Ruta Gedmintas, and Lin-Manuel Miranda. The latest additions to the cast this season included Terence Stamp, Jade Anouka and Simone Kirby.
