October 15, 2024
Apple TV+ announced today that Slow Horses has been renewed for Season 6. The pickup is another early one for the acclaimed spy drama, coming less than a week after its fourth season wrapped.
"Audiences around the world have fallen in love with the Slow Horses, and I'm delighted that Gary Oldman will be leading this star-studded cast on another acerbic and action-packed adventure," said Jay Hunt, creative director, Europe, Apple TV+.
Since its premiere in 2022, the series has garnered high praise from both viewers and critics for each of its seasons to-date. Based on the 2010 novel of the same name by Mick Herron, the show follows a group of British intelligence agents who have been exiled to Slough House, an administrative dumping ground department of MI5. Led by their brilliant but miserable leader Jackson Lamb, the employees navigate the espionage world's smoke and mirrors to defend England from sinister forces.
Season 6 of Slow Horses will be based on "Joe Country" and "Slough House," the sixth and seventh books in the series. In it, the Slow Horses will be on the run as Diana Taverner embroils them all in a fatally high-stakes game of retaliation and revenge.
