In Season 1, low-level FBI agent Peter Sutherland (Basso) helped save the U.S. President’s life, earning him the chance to become a Night Agent. Per Netflix’s logline, 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.”
In its review of the show’s Season 1, Variety wrote that “‘The Night Agent’ sparks with curiosity and intrigue, a richly detailed show that propels viewers forward with a relentless pace.”
Ryan is exec producer and showrunner through his MiddKid Productions. Other EPs for Season 2 include Marney Hochman, Paul Bernard, Munis Rashid and Guy Ferland; as well as Exhibit A Films’ Seth Gordon and Julia Gunn; and Project X Entertainment’s David Beaubaire, Paul Neinstein, William Sherak, Nicole Tossou and James Vanderbilt.
