The tech giant’s streaming service has renewed Slow Horses for a seventh season — even though the Gary Oldman-led spy drama’s fifth installment won’t premiere for another couple of months. The pickup follows a season six renewal in October 2024, which came shortly after season four concluded.

The critically acclaimed thriller, which also stars Jack Lowden, Kristin Scott Thomas, Jonathan Pryce, and Saskia Reeves, has released a logline for season seven, revealing that Lamb and his Slow Horses will be "on the hunt to find and neutralise a mole at the heart of British Government before they can bring down the state."

Before Slow Horses came out, Kristin Scott Thomas didn't really enjoy watching television. That was not too long ago.

Of Down Cemetery Road, Herron said: "It stars Emma Thompson and Ruth Wilson. Morwenna Banks has written the series, and she's done a wonderful job. There's quite a lot of overlap in the teams that made Slow Horses and Down Cemetery Road, and what I've seen of it, which is only little bit, is looking absolutely tremendous."

Malek and Brosnahan are joined by Laurence Fishburne as Charlie's mentor Robert 'Hendo' Henderson, Outlander star Caitríona Balfe as Charlie's anonymous contact Davies, and Michael Stuhlbarg as villain Horst Schiller.
