The Agency returned for a second season, following CIA operative 'Martian' as he abandons his undercover life in London. When the woman he left reappears, romance and identity collide, pulling him back into a world of violence and international intrigue. Created by Jez Butterworth and John‑Henry Butterworth, the series stars Michael Fassbender with Jeffrey Wright, Jodie Turner‑Smith, Katherine Waterston and Richard Gere.

It blends the seductive escapades of 007 with Jason Bourne intensity and the methodical, slow‑burn pacing of Slow Horses and Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. The first season drew 5.1 million global viewers across streaming and linear after its late‑2024 debut, a figure the studio called "Showtime’s most-streamed new series in history." Season 2 has climbed the charts, passing Yellowstone and Marshals to reach the #2 spot globally behind Dutton Ranch, and sits second in the United States behind the Yellowstone sequel.
