Oscar Branning is heading back to Walford, with newcomer Pierre Moullier stepping into the role. The 17-year-old has started filming and will make his on-screen debut in the coming weeks.
Oscar hasn’t been seen since 2017, when he visited Max for Father’s Day. This time, he’s older, sharper, and carrying baggage. His return kicks off with a cryptic call to Lauren, setting the stage for a summer arc tied to family fallout.
Executive Producer Ben Wadey has confirmed that Oscar’s storyline will lean into the Branning legacy. Moullier has hinted at tension and unpredictability, positioning the character for friction rather than filler.
With Max and Lauren both on the canvas, Oscar’s comeback adds another wildcard to the Branning mix. The show is keeping plot details under wraps, but the setup is clear. This isn’t a nostalgia cameo. It’s a reset.
Oscar returns to EastEnders in July.
