Ross Kemp is set to reprise his iconic role as Grant Mitchell in EastEnders for a "short stint", marking a dramatic return to Walford. This will be his first appearance since 2025 and is prompted by his estranged son, Mark.
The announcement, shared on the soap's official Facebook page, confirmed Grant's return this spring. His last brief visit in February 2025 was for the 40th anniversary, spurred by concerns over Phil's mental health.
