A description reads: "We see them dealing with the insecurities, the ambiguities, the hopes and the fears that are part of all marriages, as the drama explores the risks and the gifts of a long-term intimate relationship.

"Sometimes funny, sometimes moving, always revealing."

Filming on the new drama, written and directed by Stefan Golaszewski, has now wrapped and first look images have been released.

Speaking about his new role, Sean said: "I'm thrilled to be playing opposite the talented Nicola Walker and I'm looking forward to bringing Stefan's intimate scripts to the screen."

Nicola commented: "This is a unique project. Stefan has created such a beautiful, funny and complicated world and I'm excited to be stepping into Ian and Emma's marriage with Sean."

Marriage will air on BBC One and BBC iPlayer later this year.
