Additional details have also been revealed about Green&amp;#039;s character - Lt Colonel Philip Locke is a new commanding officer in chief who takes charge of anti-terrorism agency Section 20. Clunes, Green and Scott join returning cast members Philip Winchester (Michael Stonebridge), Sullivan Stapleton (Damian Scott) and Rhona Mitra (Rachel Dalton) in the fourth season of Strike Back - the third co-produced by Sky and US cable channel Cinemax. &amp;quot;It is great to be working alongside Section 20 and being part of an &amp;#039;Elite Team&amp;#039; for Sky,&amp;quot; said Green. &amp;quot;Strike Back is a quality drama with incredibly high production values.&amp;quot;  Sky&amp;#039;s commissioning editor Huw-Kennair Jones added: &amp;quot;There really is nothing else like Strike Back on British TV, it&amp;#039;s a fantastic series full of explosive action that delivers a mini-movie each week. &amp;quot;Working with HBO and [producers] Leftbank we&amp;#039;ve really upped the ante this year with a truly ambitious, global plot that I hope our customers will relish. I am thrilled Robson, Martin and Dougray have joined the cast for a very special fourth series.&amp;quot; Strike Back is expected to return to US and UK screens in late 2013. &amp;amp;gt; Martin Clunes wants Downton Abbey role Watch a video teaser for the new season of Strike Back below:      "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
