One of the most renowned popular British actresses is Charithra Chandran, she appeared in a spy thriller series on Amazon called Alex Rider in 2021 and a period drama on Netflix called Bridgerton in 2022. She was born in India but raised in England. One of the factors making Chandran interesting is her fusion of cultural heritage into acting with contemporary skills.

Wednesday’s character is shadowy, known for her dark humor and her razor-sharp wit. She also happens to carry a strong charisma within her personality. She is very dry with people on some jokes and loves dark topics. Based on these, Charithra Chandran totally fits into this role.

Sendhil Ramamurthy as Nefertari Cobra

He would be perfect for Nefertari Cobra, considering the character is smart, and dangerous at the same time. He has a very strong look on his face which further puts a definite stamp on the mysterious nature of Cobra. This resonates with the acting depth Ramamurthy has, making him the perfect fit for Nefertari Cobra.
