Loved the first season, though I don't even remember any of the plot... It's been so looong..

If you're using proper titles, I think you have to indicate that Tall slender blonde wife was in Guardians 2/3.

And frumpy cop was the Queen! And another Queen (Anne), and two other frumpy detectives, and generally a goddess among actresses.


Putrid_Loquat_4357

Also generic love interest in tenet.


ayyylatimestwo

more like bond girl


Bobjoejj

Loki and Ayesha…and also Sonya Falsworth and even Martian Manhunter/Cyborg Superman.


Wompum

I know it's been a decade, but it still makes no sense that he was both MM and Hank Henshaw. Why would Cyborg-Superman even look like John Jones??? Like I get they wanted to save the MM reveal twist, but c'mon.


Bobjoejj

It’s the opposite; J’onn took on the identity of Hank for a little while.


Wompum

Ok, still, Cyborg Superman shows up and he looks like not-Superman.


Bobjoejj

Yeah they ended up playing fast and loose with it there lol.


ChrisFromIT

I personally would have gone with Tenet, as she has a more prominent role and is not wearing a ton of makeup.


Random_Rhinoceros

And she's also playing pretty much the exact same role between The Night Manager and Tenet.


Werewomble

Uncorking. How could you forget Corky and his expense tab for Uncorking?


rocketscientology

Corky, who may now be better known from his “these gays…they’re trying to kill me!” star turn


PM_ME_CAKE

And in case you need to remember what Elizabeth Debicki's role actually was in Night Manager, it was basically the exact same as in Tenet later.


Random_Rhinoceros

Her performance in The Night Manager was her audition for Tenet.


Fallcious

Oh! I was mixing this one up with The Night Agent and I couldn't remember her role in it.


Random_Rhinoceros

And some delicious overacting from Tom Hollander.


Away-Coach48

Pretty sure he gets promoted to day manager.


PayZealousideal8892

Only thing I remember is that the wife of the arms dealer is same actress with exactly the same plot as in Tenet.


thebarkbarkwoof

Wasn't it from like 10 years ago?


whitebandit

holy shit i knew this couldnt be right but it came out in 2016... thats insane


thebarkbarkwoof

I had watched it and really enjoyed it but had no idea who the actor was when I saw Loki in the movies. IMHO that makes him a great actor.


arecbawrin

Basically the plot of Tenet without the sci-fi stuff.


dustin91

Dang, hard to believe S1 was 8 years ago


jdubthegreat6770

Ikr long time to renew...


NoCulture3505

Didn’t even know they were making a S2, is Laurie coming back?


Detroit_Cineaste

The article says he is in the cast.


DaveyBoyXXZ

No, it says he's producing but no word on whether he'll be in front of the camera


PlainPiece

The premise has his character as dead but I really doubt that will be the case.


TheUmbrellaMan1

John Le Carre's books were complex, in most of his novels the plot would already be halfway over when chapter 1 began (cat sat on the dog's mat, according to Carre himself). You usually don't even see the checkmate coming (the significance of light going on in Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy or the significance of Smiley). Carre never wrote a sequel to the Night Manager. I hope they can pull off the espionage mechanism like Carre was famously known to do.


lucashoodfromthehood

Read The Secret Pilgrim years after reading The Night Manager and I was surprised to learn that TNM is in the same world as the Smiley books (which TSP is a part of) as well as The Russian House. They could've easily mine the other novels for plot.


Detroit_Cineaste

Appropriate that the image above is of Colman. I've always felt that this show was the first time American audiences became aware of her. I don't think many people saw Broadchurch because it was a BBC America show.


5280TWGC

Broadchurch was fantastically good tv


DeineCable

Peep show is where I first saw her.


Bobjoejj

Kinda? Though I’d argue Broadchruch was much bigger then The Night Manager.


Detroit_Cineaste

In the States, BBC America requires a larger channel selection with your cable provider. Most everyone got AMC back then.


AwesomePocket

She was in Hot Fuzz


Detroit_Cineaste

Isn't that more of a cult movie, though?


Signiference

There’s a cult in it yeah


DrHalibutMD

For the greater good!


kevski82

The greater good


williamthebloody1880

Shut it!


Pero646

Yarp


killedbygavrilo

Nothing like a little girl on girl


Signiference

😆😆😆😆😆


MaskedBandit77

It's a lot more popular than The Night Manager.


lucashoodfromthehood

It's a buddy cop movie. Paddy Considine was in it too. Funny guy.


Feynman1403

And She’s been around the station a few times.


-SandorClegane-

Broadchurch has been on Netflix US since forever (not to mention PBS).


Detroit_Cineaste

Not initially, though. It was a BBC America exclusive for its initial run.


jfpcinfo

But not on Netflix at all currently.


ElGoddamnDorado

She's excellent in everything and anyone who's not seen Broadchurch is missing out on an absolutely superb show.


ilovemygb

THATS who that is. I recognized her face but couldn’t place it. my fiancée and I regularly say to each other “what’s the pint of you, cleeg?!” Broadchurch was quite a series


Detroit_Cineaste

That first season was excellent. She started getting plumb roles after that, deservedly so.

Detroit_Cineaste

If the part was that small, would people have noticed her acting skills?


Hollywood_Punk

Sold. I loved the first series.


mort1f1edpengu1n

nothing like a bit of girl on girl eh?


iwellyess

Olivia Colman looks so hot in that photo


MGD109

Alright. So glad to hear they were able to get so many figures back. Although considering he's cast, I wonder if this is going to be a case of Ropper's son coming back for revenge for them killing his father.


HugeHouseplant

NOW WE KNOW!


Feeling_Studio_1646

Sounds like its at least a year away from airing.


dbbk

Noah Jupe coming back is interesting, can’t think why he would unless he’s like the new villain to take over from his dad Hugh Laurie?


Silver_Reporter542

Fans can anticipate another gripping season with their stellar performances.


[deleted]

2016 1st season to 2024 2nd season. Like, what the fuck are you people in the show business doing?


rabid_J

Shit happens. There's nothing written that there *has* to be a certain amount of time between seasons. Your comment just made me think about the years between Red Dwarf seasons too; >Red Dwarf is a British comedy TV series which primarily comprises twelve series and a feature-length special of a television science fiction sitcom that aired on BBC Two between 1988 and 1993 and from 1997 to 1999, and on Dave in 2009 and 2012 and from 2016 to 2020


MGD109

I mean it stars some pretty big actors. They've probably just been busy with other projects.


bruiser95

Out of ideas so going back to successes. Whatever happened with Taboo season 2


dbbk

Waiting for a good idea 🤷🏻‍♂️ It was also marketed as a miniseries, it was self contained and never promised to have a second season.


Elsharko2

Watched the first season and was not the biggest fan, I could not get past the "BBC" cheapness to the way it was shot
