‘The Night Agent’ Teaser Trailer: A Ringing Phone Signals Trouble

The Night Agent

The teaser trailer for The Night Agent begins with a phone ringing in the depths of the White House. An FBI agent looks shocked that someone’s calling this emergency line since it never rings. The agent answers it and finds himself plunged into a terrifying conspiracy.

Creator, showrunner, and executive producer Shawn Ryan describes The Night Agent, based on the novel by Matthew Quirk, as All the President’s Men with car chases. Speaking with Netflix’s Tudum, Ryan teased, “If you like the Jack Ryan books, the Jack Reacher books, if you like the Bourne Identity stuff, if you like political intrigue, then The Night Agent is for you.”

Ryan also confirmed that FBI Agent Peter Sutherland (played by Gabriel Basso) is just a well-trained man, not a superhero. “He’s very much an underdog in the middle of all this. He’s someone who, when he’s in a fight, those bruises stick around. He’s not just miraculously recovered immediately afterwards,” said Ryan.

In addition to Gabriel Basso, the cast includes Luciane Buchanan, Hong Chau, Sarah Desjardins, Fola Evans-Akingbola, Eve Harlow, Enrique Murciano, Phoenix Raei, and D.B. Woodside.

Seth Gordon, MiddKid Productions’ Marney Hochman, Exhibit A’s Julia Gunn, Sunset Lane Media’s David Beaubaire, and Project X’s Jamie Vanderbilt, William Sherak, Paul Neinstein, and Nicole Tossou serve as executive producers.

Seth Gordon, Guy Ferland, Ramaa Mosley, Adam Arkin, and Millicent Shelton direct.

The Night Agent premieres on March 23, 2023.

The Night Agent Plot and Character Descriptions, Courtesy of Netflix:

The Night Agent is a sophisticated, character-based, action-thriller centering on a low-level FBI Agent who works in the basement of the White House, manning a phone that never rings — until the night that it does, propelling him into a fast-moving and dangerous conspiracy that ultimately leads all the way to the Oval Office.

  • Gabriel Basso plays PETER SUTHERLAND, a low-level FBI Agent who works in the basement of the White House, manning an emergency hotline for American spies. When a call comes in from a terrified civilian, Rose Larkin, Peter must protect Rose and work with her to uncover the conspiracy that threatens to rock the nation.
  • Luciane Buchanan plays ROSE LARKIN, a young tech CEO who has fallen on hard times and has retreated to her aunt and uncle’s house to reassess her life. When assassins come for her aunt and uncle, Rose learns they were not who they pretended to be, and barely escaping, finds herself with Peter, running for their lives.
  • Hong Chau (The Whale) plays DIANE FARR, the President’s powerhouse Chief of Staff and loyal defender.
  • Sarah Desjardins (Yellowjackets) plays MADDIE REDFIELD, the teenage daughter of the Vice President who is looking to escape his shadow.
  • Fola Evans-Akingbola (Black Mirror) plays CHELSEA ARRINGTON, the hardworking head of the Vice President’s daughter’s security detail, overseeing a group of male agents.
  • Eve Harlow (The 100) plays ELLEN, an unpredictable killer whose impulses come at a cost.
  • Enrique Murciano (Bloodline) plays BEN ALMORA, the measured, steady hand who guides the Secret Service in the White House.
  • Phoenix Raei (Clickbait) plays DALE, Ellen’s partner — in violence and in love.
  • DB Woodside (Lucifer) plays ERIK MONKS, who returns to the Secret Service after a long hiatus, prepared to earn back the trust and respect of the institution he serves.
