‘The Night Agent’: Luciane Buchanan Returning as Rose in Final Season
It didn’t take too long after The Night Agent‘s Season 3 premiere — less than a month — for Netflix to announce good news about its future. The Night Agent was renewed for Season 4, which will film in Los Angeles, on March 6. (Season 3 dropped on February 19.) But on May 4, the streaming service revealed that will be the last of the Gabriel Basso-led drama.
And on Friday, June 12, it was revealed that Luciane Buchanan will be back as Rose for the final run. Deadline, which reported the news, does note that “the extent of Rose’s Season 4 presence is unclear as her storyline is being kept under wraps,” so, we’ll have to wait and see in what capacity she returns and what that means for Peter (Basso) and Rose.
Read on for everything we know so far about The Night Agent‘s future.
Is The Night Agent ending with Season 4?
Yes. It was renewed on March 6, less than a month after Season 2 dropped (February 19) on Netflix. And two months after that, it was announced it will be the final season.
“Ever since the initial success of The Night Agent, I’ve been obsessed with eventually delivering a proper and thrilling conclusion to the show and to Peter Sutherland’s journey,” creator, executive producer, and showrunner Shawn Ryan said. “I’m so grateful to Netflix and Sony Pictures Television for partnering with me on The Night Agent and for giving us the space to deliver a definitive final season to our worldwide legion of fans. We are hard at work to complete our story and to make our final season one our fans will never forget.”
When does The Night Agent Season 4 premiere?
That will depend on when production begins. Season 1 was released on March 23, 2023, Season 2 on January 23, 2025, and Season 3 on February 19, 2026. It’s likely that Netflix would stick to around the same time, in winter/early spring, for The Night Agent Season 4.
Who will star in The Night Agent Season 4?
So far only Gabriel Basso and Luciane Buchanan are confirmed to return as Peter Sutherland and Rose Larkin.
A cast list has yet to be released, but we do know some new cast members. Titus Welliver, Trevante Rhodes, Li Jun Li, and Elizabeth Lail were added as series regulars, Deadline reports on April 22. Netflix hasn’t released official character details yet, according to the outlet, Welliver is playing special DOJ prosecutor Duval, Rhodes is Peter’s new partner Dom and Li is his wife Min, and Lail is Peter’s ex-fiancée Zoe.
Additional series regulars in Season 3 were Louis Herthum, Stephen Moyer, Callum Vinson, David Lyons, Fola Evans-Akingbola, Jennifer Morrison, Albert Jones, Ward Horton, and Genesis Rodriguez were also series regulars for Season 3. Amanda Warren also returned. Suraj Sharma recurred. It’s impossible to know who might be back after that, beyond knowing Warren won’t be; Catherine was killed in Season 3.
Luciane Buchanan did not return for Season 3, but the door had been left open, and with Lail now playing Peter’s ex-fiancée, it really is the perfect time to bring Rose back.
What will The Night Agent Season 4 be about?
The series is based on Matthew Quirk’s novel. It follows Peter as he goes from being the one who answers the calls of Night Agents to being one himself. Season 3 ended with him planning to take some time off to recover (and possibly beyond that), but he was also very interested when he heard about a new partner, the identity of whom has not been revealed. Executive producer Shawn Ryan told TV Insider “it’s a character we’ve never met before.”
Also to be explored in a Season 4 is whether Peter can find a balance in his life. “Is there balance possible in this kind of life? That is discussed in Season 3, and I think Season 4 will partially be the exploration of whether that’s possible or not,” Ryan teased.
He added, “We’ve got great new characters that you’ve never seen before. We’ve got Peter in a world you haven’t seen before, and I’m excited.”

It’s funny you have a big hit first series’s then they drop one of main actors that made it a hit. The first series was a9 out of 10 number two 5 out of 10

They're going to have to really step it up because season 2 didn't work at all. The genie is out of the bottle after season 1 and you've got to find some way to bring that same kind of magic and season 2 didn't do it. I literally don't remember a thing about the story. It was that bad.

I'm cautiously optimistic about the third season. You almost lost me with Rose's completely unrealistic involvement in season 2.

So glad Rose is coming back,, now just make sure they end up together in this new and last season.

Start negotiating now to bring Luciane Buchanan back to tge show. Basso and Buchanan have good chemistry and make the show work on so many levels.

I think the stated Feb 29, 2026 start date of Season 3 is bogus because this is not a leap year. Feb only has 28 days.

There is no February 29 in 2026. Nice AI writing.

G
If 29th Feb really exists

T
It exist every 4 years leap year, my Great Grandmother died on a February 29th

We loved season 3 and certainly looking forward to season 4. Finding out what’s next for Peter is exciting we’re anxious to see if he can have a life outside of his work with such a demanding career. It’s definitely going to be interesting and difficult. He needs a tough understanding women who can fill that bill. We really love this show and will be sad if this is season 4 will be the final season 🥲
