Peter's back in action in The Night Agent season 2 teaser (plus, get the release date!)

Don't worry, Peter Sutherland is back to save the world! Well, that's a tall order for our guy, but he'll definitely be trying his best to kick some butt and take some names in The Night Agent season 2, which has officially set a release date on Netflix.

All 10 episodes of the highly anticipated follow-up season of the breakout hit action thriller series will drop on Thursday, Jan. 23, 2025. Netflix unveiled the second season's official release date on Nov. 13 after previously confirming that season 2 would bow in "winter 2025."

Along with the exciting announcement of the season 2 release date, Netflix also treated fans to a first look at the episodes with a brand-new teaser trailer. It's a blink-and-you'll-miss-it kind of teaser, but it begins with the Night Action phone ringing again. That's how it all began!

The Night Agent season 2 premieres in January 2024

"It takes a certain kind of person to succeed as a Night Agent," an unseen female character says in voiceover as Peter runs from a gun-wielding group of enemies on his own. "What's it gonna be?" As we know in the season 1 finale, Peter accepts his position as an official Night Action agent, and from the clips in the trailer, succeeding won't be easy.

The teaser trailer doesn't reveal any returning or new cast members, only focusing on Gabriel Basso back in the titular role. However, we do know that Luciane Buchanan is back as Peter's girlfriend Rose and Amanda Warren, Michael Malarkey, Brittany Snow, and more have joined the cast. Netflix will likely release a longer trailer closer to the January release date.

The Night Agent first made its premiere on Netflix back in March 2023, which means the streaming service will have kept fans waiting almost two years between seasons. Season 2 had originally been planned for a release in 2024 prior to the dual Hollywood labor strikes that caused widespread industry setbacks at the end of 2023. Even Peter couldn't stop the delay.

Thankfully, Netflix went ahead and already renewed The Night Agent for season 3 before season 2 even begins streaming. Cameras will begin rolling on season 3 by the end of 2024 and continue early next year. We could be looking at two new seasons of The Night Agent released in 2025 if we're super lucky. But first, we have to get ready for the action-packed season 2 on Jan. 23.
