Season 2 of “The Diplomat” Arrives with Explosive Twists

Get Ready for International Intrigue and Drama

Season 2 of The Diplomat is just around the corner, and things are about to get more explosive than ever. The new trailer kicks off with a flashback to the last scene from the debut season’s finale, in which Hayford (Ato Essandoh) and Hal (Rufus Sewell) are targeted in a car bomb detonation. Searching for answers, Russell’s US Ambassador Kate Wyler rushes to her husband’s bedside, revealing that, for now, Hal is safe.

Tensions Mount Between Kate and Hal

As tensions grow between the UK and Russia, so does the strain between Kate and Hal, who, despite the latter’s brush with death, are still considering splitting up. But, there are much bigger fish to fry than a doomed marriage, as it seems that all the chaos is coming back to one source — the UK’s Prime Minister, Nicol Trowbridge (Rory Kinnear). With no choice but to push forward, Kate does exactly that, flying on a special mission to see this season’s new top dog — Allison Janney’s U.S. Vice President Grace Penn.

Casting and Creators

Returning this season for another round of international intrigue are Ali Ahn (Agatha All Along), David Gyasi (Carnival Row), Celia Imrie (Finding Your Feet), Michael McKean (This Is Spinal Tap), Nana Mensah (Presumed Innocent), and Miguel Sandoval (Medium).

Who Is Behind Season 2 of “The Diplomat”?

Along with starring in one of Netflix’s most intense series, Russell also serves as an executive producer alongside Janice Williams, Peter Noah, and Alex Graves. Filling out the team of executive producers is creator and showrunner, Debora Cahn. No stranger to the world of political upheaval and adrenaline-pumping cliffhangers, Cahn cut her teeth as a writer and producer during the back half of The West Wing, moving on to hold credits on other beloved productions including Grey’s Anatomy, Vinyl, and Homeland. Her work with the streamer falls under the multi-year overall deal that she signed with Netflix back in 2022.
