On March 23, The Night Agent premiered on Netflix, a new original thriller series starring Gabriel Basso, the same one who starred in the JJ Abrams Super 8 film and has been quite a bombshell in just one week of life.

The series achieved the number 1 most watched position in the English-language series category with 168.71 million hours watched. This has made it become the third best premiere of a Netflix series of all time to add those hours of viewing in just four days. In addition, it has appeared in the Top 10 of the most viewed on the platform in no less than 93 countries.

the night agent is based on the novel of the same name by Matthew Quirk and is a sophisticated action thriller that centers on Peter, a low-level FBI agent who works in the basement of the White House guarding a phone that never rings. Until one night it rings, leading him into a dangerous conspiracy situation that ultimately leads him to the Oval Office.

Such has been its worldwide success, that Netflix has already renewed the series for a season 2, announcing it with a short video:

The last week has been quite a whirlwind as we were finally able to share ‘The Night Agent’ with the world,” creator Shawn Ryan explains in a statement. “Seeing the tremendous reaction to the series has been a great joy and a credit to our cast, our writers, our directors, our crew and our partners at Sony Pictures television and Netflix. We couldn’t be prouder or more excited to kick off Season 2 to share new adventures of the Night Agent.

The vice president of dramatic series for Netflix, Jinny Howe, has also wanted to show her enthusiasm with the unexpected success of the night agent:
