As fans gear up for the release of The Night Agent Season 3 on Netflix, there’s growing buzz about what happens next — specifically whether the thriller will return for a fourth season. The show has become one of Netflix’s most discussed action‑drama series, and here’s the latest on its future.

📺 The Night Agent: A Quick Recap

The Night Agent is an American action‑thriller series created by Shawn Ryan and based on the novel by Matthew Quirk. It follows FBI agent Peter Sutherland (played by Gabriel Basso) as he uncovers conspiracies at the highest levels of government while protecting key witnesses and trying to stay alive. The show premiered on Netflix in March 2023 and quickly became one of the platform’s most‑watched series.

Season 1’s success led Netflix to renew it for Season 2 before the first finished streaming — a strong sign of confidence from the streamer. Season 2 followed in January 2025, and the third installment is scheduled to debut in February 2026.

📊 Is Season 4 Actually Official?

As of February 2026, Netflix has not formally announced a Season 4 of The Night Agent. There’s no official renewal or premiere date yet from the streamer — so at the moment, it hasn’t been confirmed publicly.

However, several strong industry signals suggest that Season 4 is very likely to happen:

✔️ Signs Pointing to a Renewal

1. Tax incentive and production planning
The show reportedly secured a California TV tax credit for a fourth season. This kind of major production incentive usually only happens when further seasons are planned or greenlit internally — even if Netflix hasn’t formally announced it. It also hints that the story might move locations, with Season 4 potentially filming in Los Angeles.

2. A writers’ room is already active
Insiders have reported that a writers’ room for Season 4 is already in motion. While not an official renewal, this indicates the creative team is preparing storylines for future episodes.

3. Past renewal timing
Netflix previously renewed Seasons 2 and 3 well before their immediate predecessors premiered. This pattern increases the likelihood that Season 4 might also be picked up early, possibly before or soon after Season 3 launches.

📅 What Could Season 4 Look Like?

At this point, there’s no confirmed plot or cast list for Season 4. Because Season 3 hasn’t premiered yet, story details beyond that remain speculative. But if Netflix does renew the show:

· Peter Sutherland (Gabriel Basso) would almost certainly return as the lead.

· The show’s globe‑spanning espionage style is likely to continue, potentially with new allies and adversaries.

· Other cast members could return depending on how the third season unfolds.

🧠 Bottom Line

Is The Night Agent Season 4 on the cards?
✅ Very likely — strong production planning, tax incentives, and industry movement suggest Netflix is preparing for a fourth season.
❌ Not yet officially confirmed — Netflix has not publicly renewed the show as of now.

This means while there’s no formal announcement yet, everything points toward Season 4 happening — especially if Season 3 performs strongly with audiences.
