There is no end in sight for Slow Horses. Apple TV+ has renewed the spy drama for a sixth season. Season four just wrapped on the streaming service last week, and season five will air in 2025.
Gary Oldman, Kristin Scott Thomas, Jack Lowden, Saskia Reeves, Rosalind Eleazar, Christopher Chung, Samuel West, Sophie Okonedo, Aimee-Ffion Edwards, Kadiff Kirwan, and Jonathan Pryce star in the Slow Horses series based on the books by Mick Herron. The upcoming season is based on his book series’s sixth and seventh novels.
In the series, Jackson Lamb (Oldman) leads the disgraced British spies dumped at Slough House. During season six, his team will be on the run as “Diana Taverner embroils them all in a fatally high-stakes game of retaliation and revenge.”
Jay Hunt, creative director of Europe, at Apple TV+, said the following about the series’ renewal:
“Audiences around the world have fallen in love with the Slow Horses, and I’m delighted that Gary Oldman will be leading this star-studded cast on another acerbic and action-packed adventure.”
The premiere dates for seasons five and six will be announced later.
What do you think? Have you kept up with this Apple TV+ series? Do you plan to watch season six?
There’s nothing I hate more than a soundtrack by The Rolling Stones!
Apart from that it’s as short a season as latter-day Silent Witness.
Great series I have enjoyed each one.Good to see a story can be shown without john wick killing everyone insight.
Mick Herron’s Jackson Lamb is great anti-Bond entertainment. So, if you prefer Newcastle Brown to effeminate Martinis and if you like true espionage tales of the unexpected browse through the advert free website https://theburlingtonfiles.org. In addition, if you have time read the fact based spy thriller Beyond Enkription about a real Harry Palmer. It is an enthralling read as long as you don’t expect fictional agents like Ian Fleming’s incredible 007 to save the world or John le Carré’s couch potato yet illustrious Smiley to send you to sleep with his delicate diction, sophisticated syntax and placid plots!
Another Rodney!
Great show, can’t wait for seasons 5 & 6!!
