What’s more, The Night Agent has already been renewed for Season 3, TVLine can report. Production will get underway in Istanbul at the end of 2024, before returning to film in New York in the new year.
When TVLine’s Inside Line column checked in with Night Agent showrunner Shawn Ryan in late August, he said that while he was not yet sure when Netflix would release Season 2, “we have finished editing all 10 episodes and are just working on sound, music and VFX. We’re working hard to have the episodes ready for fans as soon as possible!”
The Night Agent Season 1 — which currently ranks as the seventh-most popular series on Netflix of all time — was based on the novel of the same name by Matthew Quirk. Details on the TV series’ second season storyline remain scarce (Quirk has no second novel featuring FBI Agent Peter Sutherland), but Netflix is now saying that in Season 2, “working in the secretive organization of Night Action will propel Peter into a world where danger is everywhere and trust is in short supply.”
Well, yeah.
Season 2 brings back Gabriel Basso as the titular Peter Sutherland and Luciane Buchanan as Rose Larkin, while new additions include Amanda Warren (East New York) as Catherine Weaver, a veteran of the Night Action program who trains and oversees agents; Brittany Snow (American Dreams) as Alice, Peter’s partner and mentor in his first assignment in Night Action; Teddy Sears (The Flash) as Warren, a high-level intelligence officer who becomes the subject of a Night Action investigation; Arienne Mandi (The L Word: Generation Q) as Noor, a low-level aide in the Iranian mission to the UN in New York; Louis Herthum (The Peripheral) as Jacob Monroe, an international businessman with global connections that he uses to obtain valuable information; and Berto Colon (Power Book II: Ghost) as Solomon, a former Marine turned right-hand man/fixer.
Additionally, Michael Malarkey (The Vampire Diaries‘ Enzo) will fill the role of Markus, a trained military leader loyal to his dictator uncle who was recently convicted in the Hague of War Crimes, Keon Alexander (The Expanse) plays Javad, the head of security for the Iranian Mission to the United Nations; Navid Negahban (Homeland) plays Abbas, the distinguished and measured Iranian Ambassador to the UN, and Rob Heaps (Imposters) plays Tomas, who is described as “British-educated, rich, entitled but driven” and “desperate to return his family to power after his dictator father’s conviction for war crimes.”
Ryan (The Shield, S.W.A.T.) serves as showrunner and executive-produces alongside Marney Hochman, Paul Bernard, Munis Rashid, Guy Ferland, Seth Gordon, Julia Gunn, David Beaubaire, Paul Neinstein, William Sherak, Nicole Tossou and James Vanderbilt.
