Gary Oldman in Slow Horses Season 2 Exclusive Sneak Peek: ‘You’re Watching Me’
Oldman's crusty spy Jackson Lamb faces his past in season 2 of the Apple TV+ thriller — and sometimes he doesn't like what's staring back at him.
Seeking information, cantankerous MI5 agent Jackson Lamb (Gary Oldman) breaks into the Westbrook Academy of English Language, the front for Nikolai Katinsky’s (Rade Serbedzija) operations. A phone rings, and Lamb quickly learns he’s being watched. Nikki knew Jackson would come. He also owed a favor from when he defected and has just fulfilled that favor by distracting Jackson from the real action happening elsewhere. In Slow Horses season 2, episode 4 (streaming on Apple TV+ on Friday, December 16), Jackson delves deeper into the mystery of “Cicada.”
The six-episode second season of the drama is adapted from Dead Lions, Mick Herron’s second novel in the Slow Horses series. In it, “long-buried Cold War secrets emerge which threaten to bring carnage to the streets of London. When a liaison with Russian villains takes a fatal turn, our hapless heroes must overcome their individual failings and raise their spy game in a race to prevent a catastrophic incident.”
The season 2 cast also includes Kristin Scott Thomas, Jack Lowden, Saskia Reeves, Rosalind Eleazar, Dustin Demri-Burns, Christopher Chung, Freddie Fox, Chris Reilly, Samuel West, Aimee-Ffion Edwards, Kadiff Kirwan, and Jonathan Pryce.
