Season 1 Recap

The series begins slow and we are shown that Jack is working as an FBI agent in White House.

As the story progresses, the series got pace and our low key-FBI agent moves on the track to bust those moles with the helpe of his partner Frank Novak, his love Maria Torres, and some other intelligence officers.

Finally, Jack and his team confronts the criminal mastermind but the conversation goes into a complete different direction that no viewer has expected leaving the potential for a second season unlike Treason season 2 where the lead was found dead at the end.

What to expect from the Night Agent Season 2?

Season 1 of The Night Agent was full of political thrill with danger at every turn. We are expecting the second season to continue the story right where season 1 left off.

Night Agent is going for a global conspiracy that involves an evil pharmaceutical company. So, it is evident that the production team will shoot across various locations outside the United States or they will use a studio and soundstage.

Moreover, the upcoming season will introduce us to several new characters as an intelligence officer named Grace (Jessica De Gouw). Instead of having an conspiracy storyline, the Night Agent season 2 will dive into the personal life of Jack and his romantic relationship with Maria Torres.

What do you think when will the new season of Night Agent come out? Let us know in the comment section below.
