Margot Robbie is playing Tanya Vanderpoel, a British TV journalist whom Kim admires and befriends. Christopher Abbott plays Afghan “fixer” Fahim Ahmadzai, who acts as driver, translator and all-around handyman for reporters.

Hollanek, a military man who initially scares Kim, and Alfred Molina is a local official who has a crush on her.
