Fox renews spy series Deep State for second season

April 5, 2018 by Gary Collinson

Ahead of its premiere tonight, Fox has announced that it has renewed the Mark Strong-fronted spy series Deep State for a second season of eight episodes.

The show, created by Matthew Parkhill (Rogue), is described as “a grounded, visceral thriller, moving between the deeply personal story of a family man fighting to escape his past and the violent, dark excesses of government and global corporate power.”

Deep State sees Mark Strong as Max Easton, an ex-spy brought back into the game to avenge the death of his son, only to find himself at the heart of a covert intelligence war and a conspiracy to profit from the spread of chaos throughout the Middle East.

Also featuring in the cast of the series are Alistair Petrie (The Night Manager), Karima McAdams (Fearless), Joe Dempsie (Game of Thrones) and Lyne Renee (Split), Anastasia Griffith (Damages), Amelia Bullmore (Happy Valley), Kingsley Ben-Adir (King Arthur: Legend of the Sword), Pip Torrens (The Crown) and Fares Fares (Tyrant).
