Basso continues to lead The Night Agent in Season 3 as the series’ action hero, Peter Sutherland. Louis Herthum returns as intelligence broker Jacob Monroe, and new first-look photos reveal that Amanda Warren will return as Peter’s handler, Catherine Weaver. They’re joined by Fola Evans-Akingbola, Ward Horton, and Albert Jones, who’ve been upped to series regulars.

Coming off the explosive events of Season 2, Night Agent Peter Sutherland is called in to track down a young treasury agent who fled to Istanbul with sensitive government intel after killing his boss. This kicks off a sequence of events in which Peter investigates a dark-money network while avoiding its paid assassins, putting him on a collision course with a relentless journalist. Working together, they uncover buried secrets and old grudges that threaten to bring the government to its knees — and get them both killed in the process.
“We’re so excited to bring new thrills, new worlds, new stunts, new characters, and new adventures to our fans in Season 3,” Ryan tells Tudum. “Thanks so much for devouring Season 2, and we look forward to bringing you a bigger and even better Season 3.”
