Lee Jones portrays "Wilkin Brattle," a former warrior knight broken by the ravages of war who vows to lay down his sword for a simple agrarian life. But when his idyllic new world is shattered by a cruel English lord, Wilkin is forced to pick up the bloodiest sword of all: that of an executioner.

Stephen Moyer portrays "Milus Crobett," Ventris’ sly and ambitious right-hand man. Milus shrewdly influences the law of the land as Ventrishire’s Chamberlain as the Baron’s most trusted advisor and strategist.

Katey Sagal portrays "Annora of the Aiders," a prescient, mystical, and beautiful healer who serves as a counselor to Wilkin as he struggles to embrace his new identity in Ventrishire.

Flora Spencer-Longhurst portrays "Baroness Lady Love Ventris." Born into Welsh nobility, Lady Love is as beautiful and kind as she is cunning, though her sympathy for her countrymen often conflicts with her noble rule over her fiefdom, Ventrishire.

Sam Spruell portrays "Toran Prichard," a strong but cynical Welsh farmer who is Wilkin’s closest friend. He is forever loyal to his countrymen and will fight at whatever cost to protect them from noble abuses of power.

Sarah Sweeney portrays "Jessamy Maddox." Broken by the relentless abuse of her husband, Gawain, Jessamy has learned to survive by straddling that thin line between fantasy and reality.

Danny Sapani portrays "Berber the Moor," an educated noble of Moroccan decent who is Wilkin’s moral compass and steadfast comrade. His forced conversion to Catholicism deeply conflicts with his devout Muslim beliefs.

Darren Evans portrays "Ash y Goedwig," an orphan who raised himself in the forests of west Wales. Ash is a skilled trapper with an uncanny connection to animals, but has trouble navigating in the human world. He looks up to Wilkin and Toran and longs to be a useful part of their crew.

Kurt Sutter is the Executive Producer of The Bastard Executioner and also portrays "The Dark Mute." A former Templar knight of German descent, the Dark Mute is Annora’s deadly protector. His cloaked visage shrouds a deep, hideous secret.

Timothy V. Murphy portrays "Father Ruskin." Priest and teacher of the Ventrishire court, Ruskin is a former Irish soldier who swapped the blade for the Bible. He is Lady Love’s counselor and confidant.

Sarah White portrays "Isabel Kiffin." Shy and innocent, Isabel was Lady Love’s childhood companion and now remains her personal handmaiden and loyal confidant. She is the closest thing Lady Love has to a sister.

Ethan Griffiths portrays "Luca Maddox." Forced to inherit the trade of his father, Gawain, Luca’s innocence is hardened by his bloody service in the torture chamber.

Elen Rhys portrays "Petra Brattle," a simple yet divine beauty. Petra is Wilkin’s wife who reluctantly supports his fight against the brutal taxation of their Baron, fearing for him and their unborn baby’s future.
