Apple TV has today announced the premiere date for the upcoming sixth season of its original drama series Slow Horses.
The six-episode sixth season will premiere on Wednesday, September 16 with its first episode. New episodes will then be released weekly every Wednesday until the season finale on October 21.
The darkly humorous espionage drama follows a dysfunctional team of British intelligence agents who serve in a dumping ground department of MI5 known unaffectionately as Slough House.
Season six sees the Slow Horses on the run as Diana Taverner embroils them all in a fatally high-stakes game of retaliation and revenge.
The cast features Gary Oldman, Kristin Scott Thomas, Jack Lowden, Saskia Reeves, Christopher Chung, Aimee-Ffion Edwards, Rosalind Eleazar, Joanna Scanlan, Samuel West, Ruth Bradley, Tom Brooke, Jonathan Pryce, Hugo Weaving and Lenny Rush.
Oldman executive produces with Jamie Laurenson, Hakan Kousetta, Julian Stevens, Iain Canning, Emile Sherman, Adam Randall, Gail Mutrux and Douglas Urbanski. The sixth season is adapted for television by co-executive producer Gaby Chiappe, with Randall returning as director. See-Saw Films produces.
