Hugh Laurie is headed to Tehran as the espionage drama has been renewed for a third season by Apple TV+.
The Night Manager and House, M.D. star has joined the cast of the Israeli spy thriller.
He’ll play a South African nuclear inspector and will join an ensemble cast that includes newcomers Sasson Gabai, Bahar Pars and Phoenix Raei. Returning stars include Niv Sultan, who plays Mossad agent Tamar Rabinyan, Sahun Toub and Shila Ommi.
The show follows Sultan as a hacker agent who infiltrates Iran’s capital Tehran under a false identity. Apple TV+ has greenlit production on Season 3, which has now begun and will follow Tamar as she tries to find a way to reinvent herself and win back Mossad’s support.
