Michael Fassbender headlines a star-studded cast in The Agency, a new spy thriller that takes on fraught politics, international relations and spy psyches. Adapted from the critically acclaimed French drama The Bureau, the focus on training and handling deep cover agents remains, switching France for London as the base of operations.
The Cold War might seem like old news, but in the world of espionage, this covert conflict with Russia continues, and a crisis in Minsk, Belarus, is unfolding. Dealing with this potential global disaster is only one piece of the puzzle. At the same time, Fassbender’s CIA special agent, code-named Martian, has been pulled out of a long-term operation and is adjusting to life back in London.
