Sony Pictures Television Studios is hitting the ground running this Thursday with The Night Agent trailer, a thrilling new series premiering on Netflix on March 23, 2023. Based on the novel by Matthew Quirk, The Night Agent is a sophisticated, character-based, action-thriller centering on a low-level F.B.I. Agent who works in the basement of the White House, operating a phone that never rings — until the night that it does, propelling him into a fast-moving and dangerous conspiracy that ultimately leads to the Oval Office.
Gabriel Basso plays Peter Sutherland, a low-level F.B.I. Agent who works in the basement of the White House, operating an emergency hotline for American spies. When a call comes in from a terrified civilian, Rose Larkin, Peter must protect Rose and work with her to uncover the conspiracy threatening to rock the nation.
Luciane Buchanan plays Rose Larkin, a young tech CEO who has fallen on hard times and has retreated to her aunt and uncle’s house to reassess her life. When assassins come for her aunt and uncle, Rose learns they are not who they pretended to be, and barely escaping, finds herself with Peter, running for their lives.
Supporting Basso and Buchanan in The Night Agent is Hong Chau as Diane Farr, the President’s powerhouse Chief of Staff and loyal defender. Sarah Desjardins plays Maddie Redfield, the teenage daughter of the Vice President who is looking to escape his shadow. Fola Evans-Akingbola plays Chelsea Arrington, the hardworking head of the Vice President’s daughter’s security detail, overseeing a group of male agents. Eve Harlow plays Ellen, an unpredictable killer whose impulses come at a cost. Enrique Murciano plays Ben Almora, the measured, steady hand which guides the Secret Service in the White House. Phoenix Raei plays Dale, Ellen’s partner — in violence and love. Last but never least, DB Woodside plays Erik Monks, who returns to the Secret Service after a long hiatus, prepared to earn back the trust and respect of the institution he serves.
In The Night Agent trailer, Peter Sutherland is noticed by the White House brass after thwarting a subway bombing, saving countless lives. His new position leads to an investigation that spirals out of control, exposing a conspiracy among his peers, employer, and partner he’s supposed to protect. As Peter fights to survive, he discovers one devastating revelation after another, ultimately changing how he sees the government and the world around him.
Shawn Ryan (The Shield, S.W.A.T.) created The Night Agent. Ryan also serves as showrunner and executive produced the series with MiddKid Productions. The series boasts several directors, including Seth Gordon, Guy Ferland, Ramaa Mosley, Adam Arkin, and Millicent Shelton.
