‘Tehran’: Hugh Laurie Joins Apple’s Emmy-winning Espionage Thriller For Season 3
Apple TV+ has announced their Emmy Award-winning global espionage thriller ‘Tehran‘ has been renewed for Season 3, and it will see Hugh Laurie join the cast.
The drama tells the thrilling story of Mossad agent Tamar Rabinyan (Niv Sultan), who goes deep undercover on a dangerous mission in Tehran that places her and everyone around her in dire jeopardy. After going rogue at the end of season two and reeling from the loss of her closest allies, in season three, Tamar must find a way to reinvent herself and win back Mossad’s support if she is to survive.
Season three will expand its cast with Hugh Laurie (‘House M.D.’The Night Manager’) in the role of Eric Peterson, a South African nuclear inspector. Laurie will star alongside Sultan, who will reprise her widely acclaimed role as Mossad agent Tamar Rabinyan, as well as returning stars Shaun Toub and Shila Ommi, and new additions Sasson Gabai, Bahar Pars and Phoenix Raei.
The thriller has been drawing critical acclaim since it launched on the streaming service in 2020. The series picked up the award for “best drama series” at the International Emmy Awards in 2021.
‘Tehran’ is created by Moshe Zonder, Dana Eden and Maor Kohn, and directed by Daniel Syrkin, who also serves as co-creator. The executive producers are Eden and Shula Spiegel for Donna and Shula Productions, Alon Aranya for Paper Plane Productions, Julien Leroux for Paper Entertainment, Peter Emerson for Cineflix Studios, Tony Saint, Daniel Syrkin, Moshe Zonder, Dari Shai Slutzky and Tal Fraifeld for Kan.
