‘Slow Horses’ Season 5 Gets Fall Premiere Date On Apple TV+; First Look Photos Shows Nick Mohammed In Guest Role

Slow Horses will return to Apple TV+ for Season 5 this fall.

The streamer revealed Tuesday that the fifth installment of the espionage drama will debut with the first two episodes on September 24, followed by one episode weekly until October 22. Luckily, there’s already a Season 6 incoming, too, as the series was renewed in October.

Along with the premiere date, Apple TV+ also gave a glimpse at the new season in a series of photos. They don’t give away much, but there is a glimpse of Nick Mohammed will also guest star in Season 5. See those below.

Slow Horses is a darkly humorous espionage drama that follows a dysfunctional team of British intelligence agents who serve in a dumping ground department of MI5 known unaffectionately as Slough House. Gary Oldman stars as Jackson Lamb, the brilliant but cantankerous leader of the spies, who end up in Slough House due to their career-ending mistakes as they frequently find themselves blundering around the smoke and mirrors of the espionage world.

In Season 5, everyone is suspicious when resident tech nerd Roddy Ho has a glamorous new girlfriend, but when a series of increasingly bizarre events occur across the city, it falls to the Slow Horses to work out how everything is connected. After all, Lamb knows that in the world of espionage, the London Rules — cover your back — always apply.

The cast also includes Kristin Scott Thomas, Jack Lowden, Saskia Reeves, Rosalind Eleazar, Christopher Chung, Aimee-Ffion Edwards, Ruth Bradley, James Callis, Tom Brooke, and Jonathan Pryce.

Slow Horses is produced for Apple TV+ by Heartstopper maker See-Saw Films, with Jamie Laurenson, Hakan Kousetta, Julian Stevens, Iain Canning, Emile Sherman, Adam Randall, Gail Mutrux, Douglas Urbanski and Oldman serving as executive producers. Saul Metzstein, who earned an Emmy nomination for Season 3, returns to helm Season 5.
