The world is ready for more Jonathan Pine.
The seductive spy, played by Tom Hiddleston, is the main character in The Night Manager, which returned for a second season in January 2026 after a nearly decade-long wait.
The first installment of The Night Manager adapted the 1993 novel by John le Carré, but season 2 is an original story — one that Hiddleston and the series’ creative team have teased is meant to continue into another chapter.
When speaking about the future of The Night Manager, director Georgi Banks-Davies told Variety, the latest installment can be looked at “as the second book in the trilogy.”
Here’s everything to know about a potential season 3 of The Night Manager.

While Prime Video has not officially confirmed a third season of The Night Manager, Hiddleston, who also serves as an executive producer, has hinted that new episodes are already underway.
“We’re working on it. Yeah, we’re working on it now,” the actor told TV Insider in January 2026. “It’s not in official pre-production, but it’s in official development. We’re working on it, we’re refining the story and the architecture of what we really like.”
Two weeks later, he told The Morning that season 3 is happening.

Details for The Night Manager season 3 plot have not been divulged, but according to Hiddleston, season 2 and season 3 were planned “as a two-volume story,” as he told TV Insider.
“I won’t reveal it now because that would take away the lovely surprise,” he added. “But yeah, it’s going to be an extraordinary journey. It’s not over yet.”
In a January 2026 Variety interview, The Night Manager season 2 director Banks-Davies revealed season 1 and season 2 writer David Farr was “in the early stage” of working on season 3.
“When the second season came, the plan was to go to three,” the director explained. “So when you see our whole series, you’ll see it can sit entirely alone but can also sit very much as the second book in the trilogy.”

As series star and an executive producer, Hiddleston will most likely be back if The Night Manager returns.
A cast for season 3 has not been announced, but other actors from the first installment who returned for season 2 include Olivia Colman, Noah Jupe, Douglas Hodge, Alistair Petrie and more.
When will The Night Manager season 3 come out?

A release date for The Night Manager season 3 has not been shared, but Hiddleston has reassured fans they will not have to wait 10 years again.
“We always constructed this one as the beginning of a 12-episode story,” he said about season 2 during a January 2026 interview on This Morning.
“So that, actually, it gave us, I think, greater scope in terms of imagining where the story might go, knowing that we had another season to come,” he continued. “There’s something satisfying about trilogies narratively.”
When asked about another decade-long wait, Hiddleston replied, “We will be sooner than that. It’s booked in. We’re going to do it.”
