The Night Agent season 2 concludes production

The incessant success of The Night Agent meant that it was quickly renewed, with the series’ harrowing, action-packed narration being the major reason. The series stars Basso as a night-time telephone operator at the White House. He is able to identify a conspiracy which means that some of the highest US government offices have been infiltrated by a mole.

He takes the help of Luciane Buchanan’s Rose Larkin, who is a young cybersecurity entrepreneur. Larkin is the niece of two former Night agents, killed due to knowing a bit too much about the conspiracy.

Buchanan is shown as Sutherland’s romantic interest in the series, and is a former Silicon Valley CEO who is out to support him as he attempts to uncover the mystery.

Philip Sutherland must cover his tracks and investigate privately as he attempts to uncover the mole and save his country. The series, apart from an intense, action-packed narrative, also boasts of some incredible performances by its cast, which includes the likes of Fola Evans-Akingbola and Sarah Desjardins.

The Night Agent season 2 has already confirmed the introduction of several new characters, with actors such as Amanda Warren, Brittany Snow, Teddy Sears, and Berto Colon set to join the cast.

In season 2, Sutherland was able to uncover a terrorist plot, and ended up saving President Michelle Travers, who has been portrayed by actress Kari Matchett in the series.

Executive Shawn Ryan said the following about the upcoming season, according to Yahoo:

"To me, it was important. I don't want to tell this specific story over five seasons, I want to tell this specific story in one season and give some satisfaction to the audience that they see how things turn out. They learn what the truth is about Peter's father, they learn what the conspiracy was."

Hence, as fans await the release of The Night Agent season 2, they can rest assured that the upcoming iteration will take things up a few notches. As things stand, The Night Agent season 2 does not have a release date thus far.
