The Night Agent Season 3 has officially finished filming, with Netflix aiming for an early 2026 premiere. The spy thriller, starring Gabriel Basso as FBI agent Peter Sutherland, wrapped production after a globe-trotting shoot across multiple countries. Fans can expect new characters, bigger action, and deeper political intrigue in the upcoming season.
Filming Has Concluded After a Global Production
The third season of The Night Agent completed filming in July 2025, following an extensive shoot that began in November 2024. Creator Shawn Ryan confirmed the news on social media, stating:
“New York, Washington, D.C., Turkey, Mexico, Dominican Republic… We hit them all. Season 3 of #TheNightAgent has officially wrapped production.”
The production spanned Istanbul, New York, Mexico City, Washington D.C., and the Dominican Republic, making it the most ambitious season yet. Some cast and crew celebrated the wrap as early as June 2025, while others finished later due to the international shooting schedule.
What to Expect in Season 3
Season 3 will continue the story of Peter Sutherland, who is now working as a double agent inside Jacob Monroe’s organization while secretly reporting to the FBI. The new season promises:
- More international espionage, with missions across multiple countries.
- New cast members, including Jennifer Morrison as the First Lady and Stephen Moyer in an undisclosed role.
- Bigger action sequences, as teased by Shawn Ryan in earlier interviews.
The fate of Rose Larkin (Luciane Buchanan) remains uncertain after the Season 2 finale, where Peter asked her to stay away for her safety.
When Will Season 3 Release on Netflix?
While Netflix has not announced an official date, reports suggest January 2026 as the likely premiere window. This follows the pattern of Season 2, which debuted in January 2025. Post-production, including editing and visual effects, is expected to take several months before the final release.
