Apple TV+ today unveiled a first look at the upcoming fourth season of its widely acclaimed, BAFTA Award-winning espionage series ‘Slow Horses,’ starring Academy Award winner Gary Oldman.
Adapted from ‘Spook Street,’ the fourth novel in the CWA Gold Dagger Award-winning Mick Herron spy series ‘Slough House,’ season four will premiere globally on Wednesday, September 4 with the first two episodes, followed by one new episode weekly, every Wednesday through October 2, on Apple TV+.
The series is a darkly humorous espionage drama that follows a dysfunctional team of British intelligence agents who serve in a dumping ground department of MI5 known un-affectionately as Slough House. Season four opens with a bombing that detonates personal secrets, rocking the already unstable foundations of Slough House.
Oldman stars as Jackson Lamb, the brilliant but misanthropic leader of the spies, who end up in Slough House due to their career-ending mistakes as they frequently find themselves blundering around the smoke and mirrors of the espionage world.
