Netflix’s fantastic CIA action series THE RECRUIT gets a second season order

I was quite impressed with Netflix’s new CIA action series The Recruit. It was way more fun than I expected. Also, I normally don’t care what kind of projects the series stars Noah Centineo he’s a part of, but he’s been amazing in this show and he’s playing a fun and interesting character.

I’m happy to announce that Netflix has picked up the show for a second season! Series creator, showrunner and executive producer Alexi Hawley in a statement: “I’m excited to dive back into the fun, entertaining and action-packed world of The Recruit. Seeing how invested our audience has been in the show’s adventurous spy world and Noah’s turn as Owen has been incredibly rewarding, and I can’t wait to turn it all into “11” in season two.

Centineo, who will also return as an executive producer, added, “I know I speak for our entire cast and executive team at eOne and Netflix when I say that we are thrilled to return to The Recruit for a second season. I can’t wait to see what Alexi Hawley has in store for all of us,” said Centineo, who will also return as an executive producer.

The first season of the series follows “CIA attorney Owen Hendricks (Centineo), whose first week on the job is turned upside down when he discovers a threatening letter from former asset Max Meladze (Laura Haddock), who plans to reveal the agency’s secrets to the world unless they exonerate her of a serious crime. Owen is quickly thrown into a dangerous (and sometimes ridiculous) world of politicians and high power players as he aims to complete his assignment and make his mark on the CIA.

The series is also starring Fivel Stewart, Vondie Curtis Room, Kristian Bruun, Aarti Mann, Colton Dunn And Daniel Quincy Annoh.
