“The Night Agent” has upped cast members Fola Evans-Akingbola, Ward Horton and Albert Jones to series regulars for its third season. The news comes just after the Jan. 23 release of Season 2.

Per the official logline, the series follows “low level FBI Agent Peter Sutherland (Gabriel Basso), whose efforts to save the president (Kari Matchett) in Season 1 earn him an opportunity to become a ‘night agent’ in Season 2. But working in the secretive organization of night action will propel Peter into a world where danger is everywhere and trust is in short supply.”

Evans-Akingbola (“Ten Percent,” “Back in Action”), who plays secret service agent Chelsea Arrington, is repped by Hamilton Hodell and Johnson Shapiro Slewett & Kole. Horton (“The Gilded Age,” “Annabelle”), who plays governor Richard Hagan, is repped by Amplified and Innovative Artists Agency. Jones (“Mindhunter,” “Respect”), who plays FBI deputy director Aiden Mosley, is repped by SirenSong Entertainment, IAG and Peikoff Mahan.
