‘The Boys’ Star Aya Cash Makes London West End Debut in ‘Giant’ as Roald Dahl Play Unveils Full Cast (EXCLUSIVE)


Aya Cash is set to make her West End debut in the Olivier-nominated production of 'Giant,' joining a cast led by John Lithgow as Roald Dahl.

“Giant,” which premiered at the Royal Court in September 2024, explores a pivotal moment in Dahl’s life during the summer of 1983, when the publication of “The Witches” coincided with backlash over his explicitly antisemitic article. Tessa Bonham Jones (“Dune: Prophecy”) will reprise her role as Hallie, completing the West End cast that includes Lithgow (recently announced as Dumbledore in HBO’s upcoming “Harry Potter” series), Olivier-winner Elliot Levey, Olivier nominee Rachael Stirling, and Richard Hope. Cash, who will next star in and executive produce “The Boys” prequel series “Vought Rising” for Prime Video in 2025, has extensive off-Broadway experience but makes her West End debut with this production.
