Netflix’s hit political thriller The Night Agent is back for its highly anticipated second season, following the success of its first season, which became the most-watched show on the platform in 2023. As the stakes rise, the new season promises to deliver even more intense action and intrigue. Here’s everything you need to know about the premiere and what to expect from the next chapter.

Gabriel Basso reprises his role as Peter Sutherland, the low-level FBI agent who found himself thrust into a high-stakes conspiracy involving the highest levels of government. Based on Matthew Quirk’s novel, The Night Agent follows Peter, stationed in the White House basement, where he manned a seemingly inactive emergency hotline for undercover spies—until one fateful call changed everything. The first season saw Peter unraveling a deadly mystery involving a terrorist attack on the DC Metro and the murder of Rose’s (Luciane Buchanan) relatives, eventually saving President Michelle Travers (Kari Matchett) and earning the chance to become a field operative for Night Action.

Season 2 picks up with Peter’s new role, with several fresh faces joining the cast. Brittany Snow takes on the role of Alice, Peter’s new partner and mentor, while Amanda Warren plays Catherine, Peter’s new superior at Night Action. Arienne Mandi joins the team as Noor, an aide at the Iranian mission to the United Nations, and Louis Herthum and Michael Malarkey round out the new additions as Jacob Monroe and Markus, respectively.

With the stakes higher than ever, fans are eagerly awaiting the next chapter in Peter’s journey as a secret agent, ready to face even more dangerous threats in the complex world of espionage and political intrigue. Keep an eye on the clock—The Night Agent Season 2 promises a thrilling ride from start to finish.
