As rave said in his review, Peter Dinklage reprised his role. Matthew Macfadyen played the lead, with Keeley Hawes as his love interest. Alan Tudyk (Wash from "Firefly") played the fiance who gets the dose of acid just before the funeral. No one else of immediate name recognition, but here's the IMDb link.
