Game of thrones star lena headey joins new danger mouse alongside alex

At yesterday's Comic-Con panel it was revealed the actress, who plays the sinister Cersai Lanister in the record-breaking HBO drama, has signed up for a reboot of the animated cult

classic as the super intelligent rodent Jeopardy Mouse. The cartoon's revival is shaping up to become somewhat of a TV sensation, boasting an astonishing cast all signing on the dotted

line for what could become the greatest television comeback since Doctor Who. Comedian and Pointless host Alexander Armstrong will play the title character, replacing the legendary David

Jason in the role while national treasure Stephen Fry will voice Colonel K. Meanwhile, the real star of Come Dine With Me, voiceover man Dave Lamb will serve as narrator. Lena said: "I

wanted to do it [Danger Mouse] because it was pure nostalgia for me. "I have children now and it's just a treat to be involved in something that you loved as a kid and be able to

share it. Those moments as an actor that come along once in while are not to be missed." Joining the actress as new addition to the CBBC is Last Week Tonight host John Oliver who will

play the mad wolf scientist Dr. Augustus P Crumhorn. "I've loved Danger Mouse my whole life. Danger Mouse was a significant part of my childhood," Oliver added. "So to

get a chance to do it is like getting a chance to step into your childhood, which is both a magical and a potentially hazardous thing! It will be awesome, I can't wait to see it, let

alone hear myself in it!" The Danger Mouse panel also confirmed fellow 80s animated icon Count Duckula would be making an appearance on the show. _DANGER MOUSE IS EXPECTED TO ARRIVE ON
