"Riley-Carter Millington, 21, an unknown actor and a trans man, will take the part of Kyle in the BBC's flagship soap opera later this year, after making a brief appearance in the show later this month. EastEnders' executive producer Dominic Treadwell-Collins said Millington's character will be "thrown into one of the biggest stories for the end of the year" and will be a "fresh and relatable" part that "comes with his own stock of secrets"."
