According to the completely trust worthy IMDB, Shortland Street star Frankie Adams is playing a character called 'Yashima'. Fans of The Expanse will surely recognise her as an asset to the film!
Keen readers of the Mortal Engines novel will know that this name in full as Yasmina Rashid of the Palmyrene privateer 'Zainab'.
We suspect this role will be fairly minor in the scheme of things but one that does get caught up in some fun involving Hester, Tom and the Shrike....
Update: Stephan Lang himself liked our article tweet about this so we can take it as read the name is correct.
If you weren't in the know, Mortal Engines is the first novel in a series of stories about these giant mechanized cities. Check it out on Book Depository, or Amazon.
You can see Yashima briefly in the trailer wearing the safety goggles:
