But it's not just soap stars who are appearing in the cast.
Neil Morrissey will be playing the role of a newsagent, and Strictly star Joe Sugg is also rumoured to have landed a part on the show.
The Syndicate, written by Kay Mellor, follows a different group of people all involved in a lottery syndicate in each series.
The first series took place in a supermarket, and the second series took place in a public hospital.
The third series was then set in a stately home, meaning each series is completely different.
Emily's new role...
Emily will play Colette in the fourth series, which will see the staff at Woodvale Kennels win the lottery jackpot.
But their joy soon turns to horror when they find they've been cheated out of their winnings.
Speaking of the new series, Kay Mellor hinted to The Sun: "This series is a brand new story about a syndicate of low paid kennel workers, who think they've won the lottery but have been robbed of their ticket.
"The chase to confront the culprit takes us to the wealthy French Riviera where the young syndicate find themselves well out of their depths."
