The three-part limited series was first released on August 29, 2025, and it soon picked up for its dark story of the mysterious disappearance of two teenage girls.

From Agustín Martínez and adapted from Javier Sierra's novel, the show has a good cast of Spanish actors. With all the different characters appearing and disappearing on screen, viewers might easily ask themselves who is who, and that is precisely what this list of characters and cast is here to tell you.

Hovik Keuchkerian's Antonio is someone whose link to the case is built over time. His involvement in Two Graves adds complexity, as his private life and choices intersect with Isabel's mission. His character evokes the subtlety between friend and barrier.

Nadia Vilaplana plays Verónica Marín

Nadia Vilaplana is the actor who plays Verónica Marín, one of the two disappeared girls. Verónica in Two Graves is a victim and the personification of Isabel's unyielding resolve. Her disappearance triggers the chain of events that compels all the other characters to act.


Zoe Arnao as Marta Salazar

Zoe Arnao plays the role of Marta Salazar, the second missing woman. Marta's vanishing causes emotional tension to her father, Rafael, and to the whole community. She is the central figure in the show, a novel symbolizing the vulnerability of innocence in a dangerous circumstance.


Joan Solé plays Miguel Zaera

Joan Solé portrays Sergeant Miguel Zaera, head case investigator. Zaera is the institutional wing of justice, but frequently at odds with Isabel's internal emotional crusade. His internal struggle is representative of the pressures law enforcement works under from community expectations and emotional brinksmanship.


Nonna Cardoner as Lupe

Nonna Cardoner's brief stint as an actress portraying Lupe will not be the whole of the mystery's central plot, but the character adds to the overall sense of suspicion that surrounds Two Graves.

All of the secondary characters in the show add something, and Lupe is no different.


Carlos Scholz plays Beltrán Gómez de los Ríos

Carlos Scholz is Beltrán Gómez de los Ríos, a character whose loose threads pull him tighter and tighter into the core plot. Two Graves uses his writing to show the ripple effects that the disappearance of two girls creates in a whole society, revealing secrets and unpleasant relations.


Salva Reina as Carlos Jaén

Salva Reina is also cast as Carlos Jaén, one of the players whose movements become more significant in terms of the story as Isabel discovers. His actor contributes to the tension in the story, contributing to the level of danger that hangs over the surface.


Camino Fernández plays Carmen López

Camino Fernández also makes an appearance as Carmen López, a supporting actress who, by sheer presence, helps make up the texture as a whole. Although her role is secondary, Carmen showcases how much even the secondary characters are drawn into the main mystery.


Other supporting cast of Two Graves

Two Graves also features several supporting actors, including Miguel Guardiola as Ceferino, Antonella Pinto playing Isabel's friend, Magdalena Tejado as Jamila Abdallah, Óscar Dorta portraying Ginés, Ben Zahra as Farid, and more.

While these actors have fewer lines and appear less often, they contribute to making the universe of the TV show more complex and help to flesh out the history behind the main plot.


Creators and production information

Agustín Martínez created the show with Jorge Díaz and Antonio Mercero penning its script. Kike Maíllo directed Two Graves, having had previous experience working on movies, so there is a cinematic feel to the show's visual style.

The production decisions in Two Graves, its rural setting, tight-character style, and lower episode count, emphasize the show's effort to present a close, self-contained story. By the end of the final episode, each actor's complicity in the vanishing is revealed, so the cast list becomes key to unraveling the drama unfolding behind it.
