“The Night Agent” is based on the novel of the same name by Matthew Quirk.

But working in the secretive organization of Night Action will propel Peter into a world where danger is everywhere and trust is in short supply.”

The series was developed for television by Shawn Ryan, who serves as showrunner and executive producer via MiddKid Productions. Marney Hochman of MiddKid also executive produces along with Seth Gordon and Julia Gunn of Exhibit A, James Vanderbilt, William Sherak, Paul Neinstein, and Nicole Tossou with Project X, Munis Rashid, Paul Bernard, Guy Ferland, and Seth Fisher. Sony Pictures Television is the studio.
