Hit BBC series Life on Mars ran for two series and starred John Simm as the copper who was transported to 1970s Manchester - but what happened to its cast?
BBC show Life on Mars was one of British TV show's biggest series in the last 20 years and its cast have gone on to achieve TV and film stardom.
A third show called Lazarus, named after another David Bowie song, was in the pipeline for several years and was poised to end the story of Gene Hunt and Sam Tyler. Sadly Series creator Matthew Graham revealed in June 2023 the project was effectively cancelled, but fans got a glimpse of the opening episode at a live script read.
John has been in several other popular TV roles including Mad Dogs, Strangers, Cold Storage The Lakes and State of Play. He has also made numerous film appearances such as Human Traffic, Devilwood and Skellig. Philip Glenister - DCI Gene Hunt Known for his brash approach to policing, Gene Hunt appeared in both Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes. Following the two shows, viewers have been crying out to see more of the ‘Gene Genie’.
Keeley Hawes was already a TV and film star thanks to playing Zoe Reynolds in BBC series Spooks, Wives and Daughters and Lucky Kim. Following Ashes to Ashes, she has been in several other TV dramas including hit BBC drama Line of Duty as disgraced police officer Lindsay Denton. White has since played main roles in Line of Duty, Ackley Bridge, the award-winning film Pride and, most famously, the 2012 horror the Woman in Black in which she played the eponymous woman. She has also appeared in ITV drama Unforgotten, Doctor Who, The Paradise, Call the Midwife, Unforgotten and Grantchester.
He started his own construction company, Marshall Lancaster Plastering, in 2013 and now works as a contractor in Macclesfield. Montserrat Lombard - DC Sharon ‘Shaz’ Granger Introduced as a love interest for DC Chris Skelton, Montserrat wowed audiences when she played ‘Shaz’ in Ashes to Ashes. The character’s look and style was based on Joanne Catherall of The Human League in 1981.
