The Night Manager is returning for its long-awaited second season, and it will feature several familiar faces once it comes back. Olivia Colman and Noah Jupe agreed to return for another ride, along with several more cast members from Season 1.

Based on John le Carré’s book of the same name, the first season of The Night Manager centered on Jonathan Pine, a former soldier working at a luxury hotel in Cairo, who’s been recruited to investigate illegal arms sales. The second season will catch up with him eight years after the events of Season 1, and plot details are being kept under wraps.

Tom Hiddleston will return as Jonathan Pine, and he won’t be the only actor reprising his role in Season 2. Olivia Colman will reprise her Emmy-nominated role of Angela Burr, and she’ll be joined by Noah Jupe as Danny Roper, Alistair Petrie as Alexander “Sandy” Langbourne, Douglas Hodge as Rex Mayhew, and Michael Nardone as Frisky.

This announcement comes shortly after several new actors have been added to the cast, including Camila Morrone (Daisy Jones and the Six), Diego Calva (Narcos: Mexico), Indira Varma (Game of Thrones), Paul Chahidi (Good Omens), and Hayley Squires (The Essex Serpent).
