Season 3 ‘clues’ are in new episodes
As for what happens in The Night Agent Season 3, specifics on the plot have yet to be revealed. Production is still underway, after all. However, creator and showrunner Shawn Ryan previously shared that “clues” for what’s ahead are “all” in the latest installment.
“All the clues are in Season 2 for what’s set up for Season 3,” Ryan told TV Insider when The Night Agent Season 2 premiered. “Each season is a different story for us, a different world. But there will be some loose ends in Season 2 that we intend to pick up in Season 3.” The presidential election is “something that’s hovering over our action from a distance but will eventually have an impact on our story,” the showrunner said.
Amanda Warren, who plays Peter’s new boss, Catherine, in The Night Agent Season 2, approved of the storyline calling it “sick in the best way possible.”
The Night Agent Seasons 1 and 2 are streaming on Netflix.
