Fans of the hit BBC One show, The Night Manager, can rejoice as it has been confirmed that the show will be returning for a third series. This exciting news was revealed by none other than the show’s star, Tom Hiddleston, who described the upcoming season as a “trilogy”.
The Night Manager, based on the novel by John le Carré, first premiered in 2016 and was an instant hit with both critics and audiences.

The first season received critical acclaim and even earned four Primetime Emmy nominations, with Hiddleston winning the Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Limited Series or Television Film.
The second season, which aired in 2020, saw Hiddleston reprise his role as Pine, this time working alongside MI6 agent Angela Burr (played by Olivia Colman) to bring down Roper once and for all. Despite some doubts about the show’s ability to live up to the success of the first season, The Night Manager’s second season received widespread praise, with Hiddleston’s performance once again receiving accolades from viewers and critics alike.
And now, after much anticipation, Hiddleston has officially confirmed that there will indeed be a third season of The Night Manager. In an interview with Harper’s Bazaar, the actor revealed that he had recently met with the show’s producers and discussed the direction of the upcoming season. “Suffice to say, we’re all very keen to bring it back,” Hiddleston said. “It’s been a few years since the second series, but I have high hopes that it will get made.”
Hiddleston went on to describe the show as a “trilogy”, hinting that the third season will tie together the story of Jonathan Pine and his pursuit of justice against Richard Roper. This news will surely excite fans as it promises to deliver a satisfying conclusion to the story that has captivated audiences for two seasons.
But what can we expect from the third season of The Night Manager? Hiddleston didn’t give away any plot details, but he did express his excitement about the potential to explore new locations and characters. “The show has always been about taking the audience to different corners of the world and that’s something we want to continue in the third series,” he said. “There are so many possibilities and it’s always exciting to see where the writers will take us next.”
