“Slow Horses,” the Apple TV+ drama starring Gary Oldman, will return for its fifth season on Sept. 24. Season 5 will kick off with two episodes, followed by one episode weekly until the finale on Oct. 22.
“Slow Horses” is an espionage drama that follows a dysfunctional team of British intelligence agents who end up in a group called Slough House after making major career mistakes. Oldman leads the cast as Jackson Lamb, who is described as the team’s “brilliant but cantankerous” leader.
Per the official description for Season 5, “Everyone is suspicious when resident tech nerd Roddy Ho has a glamorous new girlfriend, but when a series of increasingly bizarre events occur across the city, it falls to the Slow Horses to work out how everything is connected. After all, Lamb knows that in the world of espionage, the London Rules — cover your back — always apply.”
Along with Oldman, the cast of “Slow Horses” includes Kristin Scott Thomas, Jack Lowden, Saskia Reeves, Rosalind Eleazar, Christopher Chung, Aimee-Ffion Edwards, Ruth Bradley, James Callis, Tom Brooke and Jonathan Pryce, with Nick Mohammed joining Season 5 as a guest star.
Based on “Slough House,” the novel series by Mick Herron, “Slow Horses” was adapted for television by Will Smith, who executive produces with Jamie Laurenson, Hakan Kousetta, Julian Stevens, Iain Canning, Emile Sherman, Douglas Urbanski, Gail Mutrux and Graham Yost. Saul Metzstein serves as director. The series is produced for Apple TV+ by See-Saw Films.
