Noah Centineo returns in The Recruit season 2, heading to South Korea for a high-stakes mission that pairs him with South Korean National Intelligence Service (NIS) agent Jang Kyun, portrayed by Past Lives' Teo Yoo. The partnership, while uneasy, becomes central to the season's narrative.

"He is such a strong antagonist and is extremely propulsive. Our season 2 story arc is totally dominated by his performances and intensity," Centineo shares about Yoo's character. Their off-screen friendship translated into strong on-screen chemistry, with Centineo praising Yoo's positive energy and screen presence.

The season welcomes back familiar faces including Colton Dunn, Fivel Stewart, Kristian Bruun, Kaylah Zander, Maddie Hasson, Angel Parker, Daniel Quincy Annoh, Jesse Collin, and Nathan Fillion as CIA Director Alton West.

New cast members joining the series include Young-Ah Kim, Felix Solis, James Purefoy, Shin Do-hyun, Sanghee Lee, Omar Maskati, Brooke Smith, Devika Bhise, and Alana Hawley Purvis.

Season 2, created by Alexi Hawley, consists of six episodes, compared to the first season's eight episodes. The series follows Owen Hendricks (Centineo), a CIA lawyer caught in dangerous missions that test his skills and survival instincts.

Mark your calendars - The Recruit season 2 debuts on Netflix on January 30, 2025.
