“The Night Agent” will end with its upcoming fourth season at Netflix.
The streamer made the announcement Monday along with the news that Season 4 of the show is now in production in Los Angeles.
“Ever since the initial success of ‘The Night Agent,’ I’ve been obsessed with eventually delivering a proper and thrilling conclusion to the show and to Peter Sutherland’s journey,” said series creator Shawn Ryan. “I’m so grateful to Netflix and Sony Pictures Television for partnering with me on The Night Agent and for giving us the space to deliver a definitive final season to our worldwide legion of fans. We are hard at work to complete our story and to make our final season one our fans will never forget.”
Gabriel Basso leads the cast as Sutherland, with Titus Welliver, Trevante Rhodes, Li Jun Li and Elizabeth Lail joining the show in Season 4.
Exact plot details on Season 4 are being kept under wraps. Per the official synopsis for Season 3:
“Night Agent Peter Sutherland is called in to track down a young Treasury Agent who fled to Istanbul with sensitive government intel after killing his boss. This kicks off a sequence of events where Peter investigates a dark money network while avoiding its paid assassins, while putting him on a collision course with a relentless journalist. Working together, they uncover buried secrets and old grudges that threaten to bring the government to its knees — and get them both killed in the process.”

Marney Hochman of MiddKid also executive produces along with: Seth Gordon and Julia Gunn with Exhibit A; James Vanderbilt, William Sherak, Paul Neinstein and Nicole Tossou with Project X; David Beaubaire with Sunset Lane Media, Munis Rashid, Paul Bernard, Guy Ferland, and Seth Fisher.

“The Night Agent” proved to be incredibly popular out of the gate, with the show’s first season landing in the Netflix global top 10 English-language TV chart for 17 weeks in 2023. Per Netflix viewership reports, the first season was the most-watched show on the platform for the first half of 2023, while Season 2 ranked number 9 in the first half of 2025. Viewership fell off as the show went on, however, with Season 3 entering the top 10 for just four weeks earlier this year.
