Washington [US], November 14 (ANI): Fans of the thrilling spy series ‘The Night Agent’ can finally mark their calendars, as the much-anticipated second season will debut on Netflix on January 23, 2025.
The announcement was made by Netflix alongside an action-packed teaser featuring Gabriel Basso’s character, Peter Sutherland, once again at the centre of high-stakes danger.

The series, which became an instant sensation when it premiered in March 2023, follows the story of Peter Sutherland, a low-level FBI agent thrust into a world of espionage and peril after a mysterious phone call from the White House.
Season one was a breakout success for Netflix, reigning at the top of the global streaming charts for four consecutive weeks and quickly becoming one of the most-watched original shows of 2023 in the US, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
It currently ranks as the seventh most-watched English-language series in Netflix’s history, as per The Hollywood Reporter.
In season two, Peter Sutherland returns to action as a newly appointed “Night Agent” — a covert operative working for a top-secret government program.
His journey takes him deeper into a shadowy world filled with betrayal, danger, and shifting allegiances.
As the stakes get higher, Peter’s ability to navigate this treacherous landscape will be tested like never before.
The announcement also revealed a teaser trailer that shows Sutherland back in action, answering the very same White House number that introduced him to the world of covert operations in season one.
The teaser promises an even more intense and gripping storyline that will keep fans on the edge of their seats.
‘The Night Agent’ was praised for its fast-paced plot and well-developed characters, particularly Basso’s portrayal of the reluctant hero who rises to meet extraordinary challenges.
The show’s success led to an immediate season two renewal just days after its premiere, followed by a season three order in September 2023.
Although fans were hoping for an earlier return, the delay in season two’s release is partly due to the 2023 Hollywood strikes, which temporarily halted production.
However, as per The Hollywood Reporter, filming for the new season is now set to take place in Istanbul and New York, beginning late in 2024.
Shawn Ryan, the creator, showrunner, and executive producer behind ‘The Night Agent’, has expressed his love for writing stories centred on underdogs — characters who find themselves in extraordinary circumstances despite being out of their depth.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Ryan explained his fascination with ordinary people forced to confront life-threatening situations, “I like the idea of an underdog, someone who is the least important person in a very important place, in this case, a low-level FBI agent who works in a windowless room in the basement of the White House. Everyone around him is more important than him. He stumbles onto this thing and he’s suddenly, like in classic Hitchcock movies, somebody who is an ordinary person thrust into an extraordinary situation.”
With production underway for future seasons, ‘The Night Agent’ season two will arrive on Netflix on January 23, 2025.
Season two will once again be executive produced by Shawn Ryan, Marney Hochman, Seth Gordon, Julia Gunn, Jamie Vanderbilt, William Sherak, Paul Neinstein, Nicole Tossou, David Beaubaire, Paul Bernard, Munis Rashid, and Guy Ferland.
The production team includes MiddKid Productions, Exhibit A, Project X, and Sunset Lane Media. (ANI)
