Apple TV+ today premieres its newest original series, Slow Horses. The show is an adaptation of the Mick Herron novels, about a division of MI5 that takes in reject spies, who have been taken off the standard job path due to career-ending screwups. The first two episodes are streaming now.
Gary Oldman leads the cast of Slow Horses, as the protagonist Jackson Lamb who serves as the leader of the reject spy group. He has affection for his team, even if they do not inspire confidence from the outset. As Lamb says, “they’re a bunch of absolute losers … but they’re my losers.”
The show also stars Kristen Scott Thomas, Jonathan Pryce, Jack Lowden, Olivia Cooke and others. The first season of Slow Horses comprises six episodes; a second season of at least six more episodes is already in development.
The general plot line follows Slough House as they become embroiled in a major hostage case, fuelled by right-wing extremism. Perhaps the spies can prove they aren’t as useless as the core MI5 head office thinks they are.
