Netflix Renews 'The Night Agent' for Season 4, Moves Production to Los Angeles

A $31.6 million California tax credit with a six‑month start window positions the series to begin filming by late May despite a softer Season 3 debut.

Overview

  • Netflix confirmed the pickup on March 6 and unveiled the news with a Times Square phone-and-billboard stunt featuring Gabriel Basso.
  • Season 4 will relocate production to Los Angeles after filming in Canada, New York and several international hubs, aligning with Sony’s $31.6 million state incentive that requires cameras to roll within six months.
  • Showrunner Shawn Ryan says a writers’ room has been active since 2025, with scripts already in progress for the new season.
  • Season 3 opened with about 8.4 million first‑week views and rose to 9.9 million in Week 2, trailing comparable early‑window totals for Seasons 1 and 2.
  • Ryan has teased an LA‑region storyline not centered on Hollywood, the return of select Season 3 characters, a new partner for Peter, and early episodes planned without international locations, with no release date announced as industry estimates point to 2027.
