In the mood to lose yourself in a gripping political conspiracy thriller? Netflix’s The Night Agent is here to introduce you to your favorite new fictional FBI agent: Peter Sutherland. Played by Gabriel Basso, Sutherland works the night shift in the White House basement, where his sole responsibility is to answer a phone that never rings. After receiving a distressing call from cybersecurity CEO Rose Larkin (Luciane Buchanan), the two team up, go on the run, and uncover a slew of evidence that points to corruption in the Oval Office. Created by former Navy SEAL and CIA contractor Shawn Ryan (The Shield, S.W.A.T, Timeless) and based on the 2019 novel by Matthew Quirk, The Night Agent is a thrilling binge that delivers the high stakes, suspense, and action sequences of The Recruit with less of the goofiness. Oh, and did we mention it stars the iconic Hong Chau? What more convincing could you need?
