Slow Horses fans rejoice as the spy drama returns for a highly anticipated fourth season this September. The newly released trailer offers a glimpse into an action-packed storyline involving MI5’s Slough House.
The trailer unveils what seems to be an intense case surrounding a major explosion in central London. In the thick of it all, we see Gary Oldman‘s Jackson Lamb, adding his usual touch of acerbic wit. At one point, Lamb retorts to a jest about personal hygiene with, Would you also consider a shower… Yeah, that’s a tempting offer, but I don’t think that’s appropriate right now. I mean, apart from anything else, one of my team just died.
Hugo Weaving’s New Role Introduces Tension
The fourth season welcomes Hugo Weaving as a new villainous character, bringing an intriguing twist to the narrative. His involvement is bound to challenge Lamb and his compatriots in ways they haven’t yet encountered.
Returning Favorites and New Faces
Viewers will be pleased to see familiar faces as well as new additions to the cast, including Joanna Scanlan, Ruth Bradley, Tom Brooke, and James Callis. This ensemble promises to add further depth and intrigue to this already compelling series.
Taverner’s Warning and River’s Personal Battle
The tough-as-nails Diana Taverner, played by Kristin Scott Thomas, adds to the show’s tension by warning that threat levels are now ‘critical’. Concurrently, Jack Lowden‘s River struggles to protect his grandfather (played by Jonathan Pryce) amidst these rising threats—an angle sure to resonate emotionally with the audience.
A Gripping Story Based on Popular Novels
This new season adapts Mick Herron’s fourth novel in the Slough House series, Spook Street. As always, viewers can expect a strong narrative driven by Herron’s compelling source material.
The forthcoming season consists of six episodes but fret not; Slough House fans will have more espionage thrills coming their way. The show has already been renewed for a fifth season, promising more dramatic escapades down the line.
