Is there a release date for The Diplomat Season 2?
The Diplomat Season 2 will return on Netflix on Thursday, October 31, 2024.
Before the second season hits TV screens, it is befitting to talk about the thrilling Finale of The Diplomat season 1. In the final moments of the finale, Kate learns that it was none other than British Prime Minister Nicol Trowbridge (Rory Kinnear) who planned the explosion of the British aircraft in the first episode.
Now, with the US and the UK sharing their intelligence, how do you ''investigate the PM?''
The finale saw another explosion of its own, which might lead Kate's husband Hal (Rufus Sewell), deputy chief of mission Stuart Hayford (Ato Essandoh), office clerk Ronnie (Jess Chanliau), and MP Merritt Grove (Simon Chandler) dead.
Who is in the cast of The Diplomat Season 2?
Allison Janney will guest star as the Vice President of the United States. Keri Russell's Kate and David Gyasi's Austin will also return for a second season, as they were nowhere near the second attack of the finale.
There is not enough news about any new cast joining the show, and how the explosion in the season 1 finale impacted the cast of the second season is yet to be seen. However, the main cast for Season 1 is as follows:
- Keri Russell as Kate Wyler
- Rufus Sewell as Hal Wyler
- David Gyasi as Austin Dennison
- Ali Ahn as Eidra Park
- Rory Kinnear as Prime Minister Nicol Trowbridge
- Ato Essandoh as Stuart Hayford
What is the plot of The Diplomat Season 2?
Season 2 will see Kate dealing with the explosion's aftermath in the finale's final moments. Knowing the British PM, she would have to prove her suspicions, which would be a challenge for her. There is also some friction expected between Wyler and Vice President Grace Penn as the VP thinks that Kate is after her job.
The political thriller is expected to keep the audience hooked with a gripping Second season too.
