The Recruit Season 2 Trailer Teases More Action and New Characters
Noah Centineo returns on The Recruit Season 2.
The sophomore season promises more action and introduces new key players in the newly released Season 2 trailer, which showrunner Alexi Hawley shared on X. The new season of The Recruit premieres on Thursday, January 30, on Netflix.
After his job ends up being a lot different than what he had originally signed up for, lawyer Owen Hendricks is once again thrown into another high-stakes job that he did not go to law school for, this time in South Korea.
The Recruit‘s trailer starts with Owen being told that a message has been received regarding his undercover role.
He is then attacked at a nightclub, where we get the first look at Teo Yoo as Jang Kyu, who joins the cast this season. Jang Kyun proceeds to attack Owen, but then the pair proceed to team up. Those events take place in the future.
The trailer then jumps back to Washington, DC, where everyone is questioning his abilities to be part of the CIA. Despite this, he is assigned a new mission: an undercover position in South Korea.
Owen is seen enjoying South Korea before things start to take a turn, and he is immediately told that he has 48 hours to stop an all-out war.
He then teams up with Jang Kyun, as he also intends to help him stop the war, but the events that lead him to attack Owen are yet to be revealed.
Just like that, Owen is back to giving and receiving punches, his cover is threatened to be blown, and his abilities to save the world are once again questioned by Nathan Fillion’s overly stressed CIA Director Alton West.
Per Deadline, the trailer also introduces James Purefoy’s Oliver Bonner-Jones and more new additions to The Recruit, like Brooke Smith as Marcy Potter, Devika Bhise as Juno Marsh, and Do Hyun Shin as Yoo Jin Lee.
The Recruit was created by Alexi Hawley, who serves as showrunner and executive producer with Centineo, Doug Liman, Gene Klein, David Bartis, Adam Ciralsky, Charlie Ebersol, and Julian Holmes. Lionsgate Television is the studio.
