One of the things we love about summer is that it brings us one step closer to fall (we're not big summer fans). We also love the summer because that's when we start getting early looks at what's ahead for new and returning shows. Earlier today, Apple TV dropped a teaser, a set of first-look images, and an overview for the six-episode sixth season of the Emmy and BAFTA Award-winning spy drama Slow Horses, starring Academy Award winner Sir Gary Oldman. The series will return globally on Wednesday, September 16th, with the first episode, followed by one episode weekly through October 21st, 2026.

The award-winning streaming series is a darkly humorous espionage drama that follows a dysfunctional team of British intelligence agents who serve in a dumping ground department of MI5 known un-affectionately as Slough House. Oldman stars as Jackson Lamb, the brilliant but cantankerous leader of the spies who end up in Slough House due to their career-ending mistakes and who frequently find themselves blundering around the smoke and mirrors of the espionage world. The upcoming season finds the Slow Horses on the run as Diana Taverner (Kristin Scott Thomas) embroils them all in a fatally high-stakes game of retaliation and revenge.

The cast of Apple TV's Slow Horses also includes Emmy Award nominee Jack Lowden, Saskia Reeves, BAFTA TV Award nominee Christopher Chung, Aimee-Ffion Edwards, Rosalind Eleazar, Joanna Scanlan, BAFTA Award nominee Samuel West, Ruth Bradley, Tom Brooke, Academy Award nominee Jonathan Pryce, and Hugo Weaving, alongside new addition BAFTA TV Award winner Lenny Rush.

The series is produced for Apple TV by See-Saw Films, with Jamie Laurenson, Hakan Kousetta, Julian Stevens, Iain Canning, Emile Sherman, Adam Randall, Gail Mutrux, Douglas Urbanski, and Oldman serving as executive producers. The sixth season is adapted for television by co-executive producer Gaby Chiappe, with Adam Randall returning to direct. The complete first five seasons of Slow Horses are now streaming on Apple TV.
