We never thought we’d say that Noah Centineo in a suit is a possible turn on, but hey, stranger things have happened. But he looks good in one, so…
You know that we love a good procedural and hey, even better if it’s the CIA. Spy things are a good time and a lot of fun. So yes, we’re interested in The Recruit.
What’s it about? We’re glad you asked. THE RECRUIT centers around Owen Hendricks (Noah Centineo), a young CIA lawyer whose first week on the job turns upside down when he discovers a threatening letter by former asset Max Meladze (Laura Haddock), who plans to expose the agency unless they exonerate her of a serious crime. Owen quickly becomes entangled in a dangerous and often absurd world of power politics and mischievous players, as he travels the world in hopes of completing his assignment and making a mark at the CIA.
New pics of the upcoming CIA drama were released and we have to admit that we’re looking forward to the action.
“It’s rare to find a fresh way into a story these days. And the spy genre is no different. From Jason Bourne to James Bond, the spy world is always seen through the eyes of a veteran operative who’s invariably the smartest (and toughest) guy in the room. But The Recruit enters the world of espionage through fresh eyes — Owen Hendricks — a twenty-four year old, fresh out of law school, who doesn’t even have time to figure out where the bathrooms are before he’s pulled into a high-stakes case. None of us can realistically dream of being James Bond, but all of us have had a first job — with co-workers we can’t trust, and agendas we don’t understand. Only at the CIA, those hidden agendas can get you killed.” Showrunner and Executive Producer Alexi Hawley said at TUDUM. We couldn’t agree more with him.
The Recruit stars Noah Centineo, Laura Haddock, Aarti Mann, Colton Dunn, Fivel Stewart, Daniel Quincy Annoh, Kristian Bruun, Vondie Curtis Hall, Byron Mann, Angel Parker, and Kaylah Zander.
The eight, one hour episodes will premiere December 16th on Netflix.
