"There were so many things about the series that I felt an affinity with so when I did get the part, I didn’t believe my agent.
"It was just such a fun part to play as an actor because it involved so many different actions, objectives and conflicts that all play out against each other."
Away from Wolf, and actor Ukweli is known for Humans, and Grantchester.
Sacha Dhawan as Honey
Sacha Dhawan plays Honey, who is described as a "sharp and focused professional" on a job with Molina, who shows up at the home of the Anchor-Ferrers family.
The actor told the BBC: "One of the draws to this part was that it was unlike anything that I’ve ever read before.
"There's an intensity, there's violence and there's crazy scenes to play.
"At the same time, towards the end of the series when things shift a little bit, you almost want to feel for Honey which is quite a tricky thing to do."
TV star Sacha is best known for Dracula, Sherlock, and Line Of Duty.
The talented actor also appeared in Doctor Who.
Iwan Rheon as Molina
Molina – played by Iwan Rheon – is Honey's hapless partner on their job, who also shows up at the home of the Anchor-Ferrers family.
Speaking about his character, the actor told the BBC: "Molina is a bit of a hapless criminal – he’s not the brightest, but he has some great ideas.
"He’s part of a double act with Honey, played by the brilliant Sacha Dhawan, who take the Anchor-Ferrers family hostage, although he’s probably not the ideal person for this job."
Fans will recognise Iwan from playing Ramsay Bolton in Game of Thrones and Simon Bellamy in Misfits.
Juliet Stevenson as Matilda Anchor-Ferrers
Iconic actress Juliet Stevenson is a well known face on the box, thanks to her long career as an actress.
In Wolf she plays Matilda Anchor-Ferrers, who's family is terrorised.
Juliet said: "I think audiences will be hooked on Wolf because you just can't see where it's coming from or where it's going.
"That is, for me, the definition of a great thriller. With some, you can quite often see perhaps who's being set up, who will turn out to be the killer or the wrongdoer.
"But here, you really can't tell. It is extremely thrilling."
Owen Teale as Oliver Anchor-Ferrers
Welsh star Owen Teale plays Matilda's husband Oliver Anchor-Ferrers.
The actor is best known for Line of Duty, and Stella.
Speaking to the BBC about Wolf, Owen said: "This character was really about being as honest as possible and honest about fear.
"You have a TV idea of how you would try to protect your family and when you’re truly desperate and scared, so we’ve really had to imagine what we would do in those moments.
"It’s been interesting when we’re filming as I’ve often had to stop for a moment and think what these two guys have done to Oliver and his family and I think by now you have to come through and you can’t stay frightened for all that time, so as a result you become quite dangerous. You’ve got nothing to lose if you think you’re going to die."
