It’s time to call “action” onThe Night Agentseason 2!
Netflix’s hit thriller series has suited up and started filming its sophomore outing. The streamer released a new photo from set on Monday featuring starGabriel Bassoholding a clapperboard and sporting a rugged beard.
The scene appears to be filming at night on a street corner. Basso, 29, is standing under the glow of a red neon light. He’s wearing a button down while holding the board for episode 201.
Netflix confirms filming for the new season will step away from Washington, D.C., in and around which much of season 1 was based. This time, Basso’s Peter Sutherland will find himself in locations as far-flung as New York City and Thailand

In the final scene of season 1, character Peter was handed a mission statement that read “Night Action: Mission Brief,” meaning he made his way into the elite group of night agents he’d been keen to join.
Showrunner Shawn Ryan teased what that moment means toNetflix’s Tudum. “I love the symbolism in that,” Ryan said. “That he’s the guy who, from the beginning, has been trying to do more, has been trying to be of service, has been trying to be noticed for his good qualities since his father was accused of bad qualities and people were suspicious about him.”
The Night Agentseason 1 became Netflix’s sixth most-watched series ever with in 98.2 million views.
Luciane Buchanan, who plays Rose, is confirmed to be returning for season 2 alongside Basso, ensuring plenty more will-they-won’t-they tension to come. New cast members have already been announced, including Amanda Warren, Arienne Mandi, Louis Herthum, Berto Colon,Brittany Snowand Teddy Sears.
