The stakes have never been higherย asย Slow Horses: Season 5ย hits Apple TV+ onย September 24, 2025. After the explosive events ofย Spook Street, the agents of Slough House are once again pulled into the shadowy world of espionageโwhere trust is scarce, and every move could be fatal. This season kicks off with a double episode premiere, launching a tightly wound six-episode arc full of twists, turns, and devastating fallout.
Jackson Lambย (Gary Oldman) returns as the gruff, sharp-tongued leader of the Slow Horses, his brilliance still hidden beneath a layer of cynicism and cigarette smoke. At his side, River Cartwright (Jack Lowden) and Diana Taverner (Kristin Scott Thomas) navigate treacherous political waters and personal vendettas that blur the line between friend and foe.
Whenย a series of cryptic, unconnected threatsย descends upon London, the team begins to suspect something far more sinister at play. As they peel back the layers, the Slow Horses uncover a conspiracy that doesnโt just threaten national securityโit strikes at the very heart of MI5. The deeper they dig, the clearer it becomes: the enemy might not be outside the agencyโฆ but inside it.
Expect the signatureย dark wit and razor-edged dialogueย that fans have come to love, alongside moments of unexpected vulnerability and gut-punch betrayals. This season leans into its noir roots, offering a chilling portrait of espionage where nothing is sacred, and loyalty is a dangerous illusion.
With its tightly written plotlines, powerhouse performances, and unrelenting tension,ย Slow Horses: Season 5ย promises to be a gripping ride from start to finish.ย Spy games donโt get colderโor more personalโthan this.
