Niamh Walsh (born 17 April 1988) is an Irish actress. She is best known for her role as Cara Martinez the in BBC One medical drama Holby City. Walsh also appeared in Casualty and Jekyll and Hyde. She starred in the Sky 1 period drama Jamestown as Verity Rutter née Bridges. Before production, Walsh stated that she "researched a lot for this role. I love all that stuff. Bill [Gallagher] used real people as the basis for some of his characters. And by reading books about the period you learn little things that even if the audience doesn’t see it, it adds to your performance." In 2021, Walsh appeared alongside Dervla Kirwan, Seána Kerslake and Gemma-Leah Devereux in the RTÉ One thriller drama series Smother, in which she portrayed Jenny, the eldest Ahern sibling. In an article with the Irish Independent, Walsh shared her interest in portraying one of the powerful and independent woman in the series, as stated: It took long enough, but people are sort of realising that women are just as complicated as men. We contain multitudes. There aren’t just three types of women out there… It’s so comforting to see that we’re sort of just being allowed. We’re being allowed the complexity that men have been allowed for years. We are no longer being jammed into boxes. On 26 May 2021, Walsh was cast in the Netflix adaptation of DC Comics's The Sandman, portraying the young Ethel Cripps

Fancasted Main and Side Characters. Synopsis; (12 episode series, 2 episodes 75 mins, and all of the rest are 50-65 mins. First April 2nd then April 6th, then one every 7 days. Depending on whats wanted by the Studio and Landy, there are two casting options. To have Steph/Val as a 13 year old girl or to age her up a bit but not change anything else. The only casting changes would be Steph and the cousins. Parent actors can play any age within 5 years of their actual age, use make-up work. Only criteria for decision is that if it’s the younger option, filming would need to be soon as they are all 13-14 currently. They can’t play too young of a character beyond a certain point. As for older casting, they are 19 now which works, they could play a 16-17 year old well with minor additions for visuals and sound possibly required. The cousins can be fine as 20-21 year olds and still function as the same style of characters, but slightly different to younger casting or the books. ( I don’t know how this development stuff works so I doubt it would happen any time soon. I expect if a studio and Landy were interested to begin development it would start in 2024-25.)
