Tom Hiddleston’s Best Thriller Will Be Back With a Bang With New Cast Members
It is a gift that keeps on giving.
It comes as no surprise that many classic TV shows and movies are making a comeback these days. While many people are still on the fence about remakes and revivals, as they tend to be worse than the originals, there are some gems that become fan favorites in no time. The second installment of The Night Manager could be another addition to that list.
Back in 2016, the show blew everyone away with its sharp writing and fast pacing. However, the 6-episode effort ended after one season and wasn't picked up to return. That was until the 2024 news of a comeback with another two seasons. And the second season already seems to be as great as anything we have seen before.
The Night Manager Season 2 Cast Changes
One of the best news about the renewal was the comeback of Tom Hiddleston, the show's leading man. Even though the premise could introduce a new night manager, Jonathan Pine's glorious return is what will likely keep the show as popular as it was before.
In the first season, Hiddleston was joined by the likes of Hugh Laurie, Olivia Colman, Tom Hollander, and Elizabeth Debicki. The stellar cast was one of the main things critics praised in their reviews, so to maintain the show's 91% score on Rotten Tomatoes, casting directors should keep a close eye on who they add to the show.
As of today, there is no news of anyone other than Tom Hiddleston returning to their roles. However, there is still time for more updates to come. Besides, there are already some names of the newcomers who will join The Night Manager for its second season. Camila Morrone and Diego Calva have been confirmed to join the show.
While there is no information on either actor's role in the thriller series, both are known to viewers for their past television roles. Morrone has portrayed Camila Alvarez-Dunne in Prime Video 's Daisy Jones & the Six, while Calva has appeared in much darker The Inmate and Narcos: Mexico.
As confirmed by Tom Hiddleston, the second season of The Night Manager will address the 8-year hiatus the show has taken, so the characters will not pick up where they left off in season one, but will be found in different spots.
