The Night Agent Season 2 Makes Major Casting

The Night Agent Season 2 has cast a major role, as Amanda Warren will join series stars Gabriel Basso and Luciane Buchanan in the upcoming installment of the hit Netflix action show.

Who will Amanda Warren play in The Night Agent Season 2?

Warren, who recently appeared opposite Jamie Foxx in the Prime Video movie The Burial, in addition to TV roles in East New York and The Leftovers, will portray Catherine Weaver. According to Deadline, which notes that the casting is the biggest yet for season 2, Catherine is a veteran of the top-secret Night Action investigative program.

She trains trains and oversees various Night Agents. That includes Basso’s character, Peter Sutherland. Catherine is described as “smart, private, and determined.” She also passionately defends her agents, but she does find it hard to earn Peter’s trust as he struggles with betrayal issues stemming from the events of the first season.

Along with Basso and Buchanan as Rose Larkin, the cast of season 1 included Oscar nominee Hong Chau as Diane Farr, Sarah Desjardins as Maddie Redfield, Fola Evans-Akingbola as Chelsea Arrington, Eve Harlow as Ellen, Enrique Murciano as Ben Almora, Phoenix Raei as Dale, and D.B. Woodside as Erik Monks.

The Night Season 2 is expected to premiere in 2024. Shawn Ryan serves as showrunner and he executive produces alongside Seth Gordon, Marney Hochman for MiddKid Productions, Julia Gunn for Exhibit A, Jamie Vanderbilt, William Sherak, Paul Neinstein, and Nicole Tossou for Project X, and David Beaubaire for Sunset Lane Media. The series hails from Sony Pictures Television Studios.

The Night Agent “is a sophisticated, character-based, action-thriller centering on a low-level FBI Agent who works in the basement of the White House, manning a phone that never rings — until the night that it does, propelling him into a fast-moving and dangerous conspiracy that ultimately leads all the way to the Oval Office,” per the synopsis.
