"The Agency" Overview: As Prestige As It Gets

The all-new political thriller follows Martian (Fassbender), a covert CIA agent, ordered to abandon his undercover life and return to London Station. When the love he left behind reappears, romance reignites. His career, his real identity, and his mission are pitted against his heart, hurling them both into a deadly game of international intrigue and espionage. Le Bureau des Legendes centers on the daily life and missions of agents within France's principal external security service. It focuses on the "Bureau of Legends," responsible for training and handling deep-cover agents on long-term missions in areas with French interests. Living under false identities for years, these agents' missions are to identify and recruit good intelligence sources. Le Bureau des Legendes was created by Eric Rochant and is a CANAL+ Creation Originale series produced by TOP – The Originals Productions and Federation Studios.

The show will debut episodes a little bit differently as well. First, it will show on demand for subscribers of Paramount+ with the added Showtime addition, then air on the network itself. Internationally, it will stream on Paramount+. And that is a good thing, too, because this will be one to catch with that cast. With this in production right now, it's good to see it getting a release schedule before the end of 2024.
