An EastEnders and Hollywood actor has been cast in this year's pantomime at the Ipswich Regent Theatre.
Jack and the Beanstalk will run at the venue from Tuesday, December 17 until Tuesday, December 31.
The pantomime tells the fairytale story of the young boy who climbs a beanstalk and discovers a giant's castle.
The theatre previously announced Gavin Ashbarry would return by popular demand as the Dame alongside Mike 'Squeaky' McClean.
Soap star Michael Greco is making his return to the world of pantomime and has joined the cast in the role of the villain Fleshcreep.
The actor is best known playing Beppe di Marco in EastEnders from 1998 to 2002.
Mr Greco recently starred in Netflix mini series Queen Cleopatra alongside Jada Pinkett-Smith and played Strabo Plinth in Hollywood blockbuster movie Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes.
More big names who are joining the cast of the Enchanted Entertainment production will be announced over the coming weeks.
Tickets for Jack and the Beanstalk are on sale now starting from £15 and can be purchased at the Ipswich Theatres website.
