Streaming
service
Prime
Video
and
the
BBC
have
unveiled
the
first-look
images
of
the
highly
anticipated
second
season
of
“The
Night
Manager”,
which
brings
back
British
star
Tom
Hiddleston
as
the
former
British
intelligence
operative
Jonathan
Pine.
The
second
season
comes
eight
years
after
its
explosive
first
season,
adapted
from
John
le
Carre’s
novel
of
the
same
name
and
won
multiple
Emmys,
Golden
Globes
and
BAFTAs,
including

for

Set
in

present
day,
the

takes
Pine’s
story
in
a
fresh,
original
direction.
It
follows
the
character
—
now
living
as
Alex
Goodwin,
a
low-level
MI6
officer
running
a
quiet
surveillance
unit
in
London
—
whose
peaceful
life
is
disrupted
by
the
resurfacing
of
ghosts
from
his
past.
According
to
the
official
synopsis,
a
chance
encounter
with
an
old
mercenary
draws
Pine
into
a
dangerous
mission
involving
Colombian
businessman
Teddy
Dos
Santos
(played
by

Calva),
leading
to
a
high-stakes

designed
to
destabilise
a
