“I think he’s just going to be pulled in different directions and hopefully not torn in half,” Basso told Tudum of season 3’s plot.

The Night Agentcreator Shawn Ryan added, “Peter falls in the middle of an awkward and uncomfortable place — he’s between two very powerful people that may be up to no good. That will be an interesting question in Season 3: Who’s really in control of that relationship — President Hagan or Jacob Monroe?”

As of January 2025,The Night Agenthas started production for season 3 in Istanbul. The show will continue to film in New York later this year. Prior to the series renewal announcement, Basso toldCinemaBlendthat he’d love to step back from filming in big cities like New York and Bangkok and see Peter fight bad guys in locations not commonly seen on the small screen.

“I think Nepal would be pretty cool, like filming in the mountains in Nepal,” the actor said in January 2025. “I’ve not seen it on screen a lot, but that’s probably for a reason because — probably a logistical nightmare to film there.”

Basso continued, “I think it also might be pretty cool to see a Midwest town, because everyone’s always in big international cities. I think it’d be cool to see, like, St. Louis or some city that people wouldn’t think that this kind of stuff happens there and then it does.”

In a 2023 interview withTudum, theHillbilly Elegyactor said that he knew the series had multi-season potential. That thought led Basso to make an artistic choice in how he played the final season 1 scene when Peter accepted his new role as a Night Agent.

“I remember thinking, ‘I don’t want to smile because this is scary’ … Peter is now a cog in the machine officially. [He doesn’t] get to say, ‘This isn’t for me,’ ” Basso said. “That whole thing sort of makes me nervous. But it also [creates] a lot of storytelling opportunities for potential seasons down the line.”
