A decade after it first aired, The Night Manager did something few shows manage: it came back without feeling like a nostalgia grab. Season 2 is as sleek and addictive as the original, with a story meant to keep viewers engaged throughout.
Critics praise it too, with the show currently boasting a 91% score on Rotten Tomatoes. With such a successful comeback, more episodes have to be in store, right?
The Night Manager Season 3 Release Date
Thankfully, we have great news. The Night Manager season 3 is happening, and we won’t have to wait another 10 years to tune in.
“It’s very exciting because we’ve always been able to plan season 2 and season 3 as a two-volume story — 12 hours and 12 episodes are very different from six episodes, so we know where the story ends,” star Tom Hiddleston revealed earlier this month.
He also confirmed that season 3 is in official development, which means it might arrive sometime in mid-to-late 2027, depending on how production moves.
Until then, there are two episodes left in season 2, with the finale scheduled for February 1. In the UK, season 2 is available via BBC1/BBC iPlayer.

What Could Happen in The Night Manager Season 3?
The Night Manager is a spy thriller about Jonathan Pine, a former British soldier turned luxury-hotel night manager. You follow him as he’s drawn into the high-stakes world of international espionage.
The first season adapts John le Carré’s novel of the same name. When Pine comes across evidence of illegal arms deals, intelligence operatives recruit him to infiltrate the inner circle of dangerous figures.
In season 2, Pine runs a low-key MI6 surveillance unit in London. His quiet life is disrupted when he spots a former mercenary, pulling him back into covert work. Then, a murdered colleague’s secrets lead Pine to a businesswoman connected to a new arms network. Together, they infiltrate a plot run by a ruthless Colombian criminal.
The new episodes expand the world beyond the novel, so it’s tough to speculate about what The Night Manager season 3 might bring ahead of the finale. For now, the only thing we can guarantee is that more twists are on the way.
