Rowan Cunliffe, played by Emrhys Cooper, made his debut on Friday 15 March. His casting was announced by Digital Spy on Tuesday 5 March. He met Leanne Battersby (Jane Danson) and Simon Barlow (Alex Bain) at the Chariot Square Hotel where they attend an event together. After Simon confessing to drink driving with Sam Blakeman (Jude Riordan) in the back of the car, Leanne decides to help Simon by taking him to a seminar at the hotel being held by a mysterious group called The Institute. Debbie Webster (Sue Devaney) advises Nick goes along with them as there's a wedding fayre on local to the hotel. On Rowan's character, Digital Spy reported that "Rowan approaches Leanne and offers her some unsolicited advice. Leanne is initially taken aback by Rowan's approach, but she drops her guard when he encourages her to share her deepest thoughts and feelings. When Rowan leaves and flashes Leanne a smile, she can't help but blush. Does this Weatherfield newcomer have a hidden agenda?"

When Rowan arrived in Coronation Street, he begins to manipulate Leanne into The Institute, which begins to cause a rift in her relationship with Nick. This led to him having an affair with Leanne's step-sister, Toyah Habeeb (Georgia Taylor), which Rowan finds out about and uses the information to blackmail Nick into investing into The Institute after he suggests to Leanne that it would be a good idea to invest £40,000 in the business. Rowan, along with Leanne have also been trying to persuade Amy Barlow (Elle Mulvaney) into joining The Institute. Cooper spoke out about the behaviour of his character: "I think that he really wants to open another resource centre, so he's on a mission to raise the investment needed, however he can do that, and he wants to 'help' more people, so there might be some more characters he's bringing into the organisation…." Cooper added that he had "quite a lot of insight" when he researched into the role of Rowan before auditioning, and said it was "because I want to try to make the story as believable as possible".

On 12 July 2024, it was announced that Cooper would be departing Coronation Street. The Mirror reported that he would leave when his story "eventually comes to a close", but the storyline "is not ending soon, as the character's behaviour will worsen and escalate over the coming months." However, Digital Spy reported that Rowan's storyline was "always intended to run for a fixed period of time and set out with a clear beginning, middle and end." After being arrested on 9 September 2024, it was believed that Rowan had departed the series, however Cooper confirmed at the Inside Soap Awards, on 30 September 2024: "He hasn't quite finished his naughty business yet. There might be a little bit more of a twist yet to see, so keep watching and you'll soon see." When asked whether it was important to see Rowan get his comeuppance, Cooper replied: "I think so! It's been so fun playing Rowan. I think he's caused so much trouble that that would have to happen, right?" Cooper reflected on his time on Coronation Street: "It's been really fun, really exciting. It's a very important role, important subject matter. Just spreading the awareness has been a dream come true. There was lots of drama on screen, but off screen there was lots of laughs, lots of love. I made some really good friends and I enjoyed it all, really. Every day was a pleasure. I felt very comfortable with the actors I worked with. They gave me so much, so it was a really beautiful experience that I'll always treasure." Cooper was asked if Rowan would have tried to recruit anyone else. He laughed and responded: "Just the people with the most money, really! It would have been fun to do Ken! But I think it's the dollar amount – the most money would have been the most appealing."

Introduced by	Iain MacLeod

Lederer had already teased a potential role on Coronation Street before her casting was officially announced on March 17. She first spoke out about her casting to Digital Spy saying "It came out of the blue but for me Coronation Street, of all the soaps, is the most substantial and ironic with such humour, it's really a class act. So when you get the call for Coronation Street you drop everything. And to be offered a part playing a role opposite William Roache is even more exciting. I had met him once before when I sat next to him at an event and I thought what a lovely man he was and so personable. So for me to be offered this brief role was a joy." Although Elspeth is only set to appear in one episode for now, Helen confirmed that she's open to returning to the role in the future and said "The answer to that is 'most definitely'. Ken had Steve to deal with but he was certainly interested in her. He definitely made sure he got her number, he initiated it. So who knows one day he might actually call her and I can come back to Weatherfield."

She further discussed her feelings towards her casting by saying "Can you believe it?! I've wanted to be on Coronation Street since I was a little girl.

I can’t even believe I'm writing this. I think the best part was ringing my mum and telling her." Merna also told Digital Spy that her family have been fans of Coronation Street by saying "To my dad, nana, grandad, and grandma, who all watched it for many years, and were huge fans.

This will be Cunningham's second role in the soap as he previously appeared as Jimmy Sykes between 2000 and 2001. Chloe Timms from Inside Soap called the character "horrid" and hoped that Bernie would chase the character "out of Weatherfield".

On 24 September 2024, it was announced that Denny would be returning to Coronation Street for Paul's funeral. He appeared in scenes airing on 2 October 2024. As the day of Paul's funeral arrives, Billy is emotional as it would have been their first wedding anniversary. After he arrives at the church, he is appalled to see Denny lurking around drunk. Knowing that everyone will be upset to see Denny again after he tried to steal from Paul, he orders him to stay hidden. On 30 September 2024, at the Inside Soap Awards, Daniel Brocklebank, who plays Billy, spoke out about Paul's funeral episode: "To film it was incredibly emotional. It's Corrie, so the fans can expect it to be moving, humorous, a bit of drama." On Denny's unexpected arrival, Daniel added: "Naughty Denny! What is he doing? He's so naughty. He does turn up. Billy's focus is more on the fact that he's about to bury his husband on what would have been their wedding anniversary. So he's thrown a little bit by Denny turning up. I don't know how much I can say without spoiling it, but it causes issues, let's just say that!"

He's living this domestic bliss so the last thing he wants is anything interrupting that." Halsall conveyed he "could only imagine" the emotions Tyrone would endure throughout the ordeal. Halsall believed "not knowing about it" and "missing all that time" will stir emotions up for Tyrone on his own childhood. Halsall added, "Obviously knowing there's nothing he can do [about the past], he wants to make a point from now to be the best person he can be in that child's life." Even though this drama would make things difficult for Fiz and Tyrone, Halsall is confident the "iconic couple" will survive the "latest test".

Toolan spoke about Mason's past: "I think this is the kind of abuse Mason has faced his whole life which unfortunately is what has shaped him into the kind of person he is today. I think once Mason is fully back on screen, we will see little nuggets of things which we will be able to explore further into his backstory and give a clearer insight into his family life." Mason has previously mentioned his abusive older siblings to Stu Carpenter (Bill Fellows) and Yasmeen Nazir (Shelley King), and has recently had a black eye as a result of this violence.

Logan is set to arrive when Stu goes over to confront him after Mason points out that his brother is watching him from his car down the street. As Stu tries to confront him, Logan drives off. Subsequently, Stu and Yasmeen, who has recently been uneasy with Stu's growing bond with Mason, are faced with worry after a brick is thrown through their window when they get home. Stu instantly suspects that Logan is responsible as he recently tried to force Mason to participate in a robbery. These events will potentially push Yasmeen beyond her limits.
