Walford bosses recently announced that the former Footballers' Wives actress had signed up to play businesswoman Vanessa, a new love interest for Max Branning (Jake Wood). She will begin filming scenes within the next few weeks.
Anderson, who plays Max's nephew Billie Jackson, has now described the news of Lucker's casting as "really exciting".
He told DS: "I watched her in Footballers' Wives and Tanya Turner was a legend. She's going to have a lot to do with the Jackson-Brannings by all accounts, so I'm looking forward to it. Maybe an older woman for Billie?! Wouldn't that be nice?!"
Anderson also confirmed that he is eagerly anticipating the return of Shane Richie and Jessie Wallace as Alfie and Kat Moon.
He commented: "I wasn't here when Shane and Jessie were in the show, so I'm excited because I always used to watch it when they were in and they were two of my favourite characters."
