Noah Centineo is readying to save the day…

Netflix has released the trailer for the upcoming second season of the spy thriller series The Recruit, starring the 28-year-old part-Puerto Rican actor.

Noah Centineo, The Recruit“I got this,” Centineo’s rookie CIA lawyer Owen Hendricks tells his boss Walter Nyland who sends him to “go save the day” in the trailer for the series, which premieres January 30.

Set to a Korean cover of Green Day’s “American Idiot,” the trailer reveals more about the Season 2 premise about Owen being “pulled into a life-threatening espionage situation in South Korea, only to realize that the bigger threat just might be coming from inside the Agency.”

Noah Centineo, The RecruitNathan Fillion’s CIA Director Alton West warns that “they are going to spill every secret we busted our nuts to keep secret,” with Owen and Co. given “48 hours to stop an all-out war.”

The trailer also introduces Season 2 series regular Teo Yoo as Jang Kyun Kim who partners with Centineo’s Owen for some Rush Hour-style buddy action sequences.

As the trailer states, “Saving the world takes a pair.”

Newly released Season 2 photos shed more light on Owen’s time in Korea, with the always-stressed Janus possibly joining him on the mission as the two are seen on a plane together in one image, and Jang is standing in front of headshots of both Owen and Janus in another. One of the photos hints at the resolution of the Season 1 cliffhanger, with Owen seen walking alongside Dawn while Nichka is being led handcuffed.

Noah Centineo has been recruited for a longer spell…

The 26-year-old part-Puerto Rican actor’s series The Recruit will return for a second season.

Noah CentineoNetflix announced the news late this week that it has renewed the popular series from Entertainment One, Alexi Hawley and Hypnotic.

Season 2 will pick up from last season’s cliffhanger ending that found Owen (Centineo) and Max (Laura Haddock) captured and their lives endangered.

“I’m thrilled to dive back into the fun, funny, action-packed world of The Recruit,” series creator, showrunner and executive producer Hawley told Tudum.com. “Seeing how invested our audience became in the show’s adventurous take on the spy world and Noah’s turn as Owen has been incredibly rewarding, and I can’t wait to turn it all up to ‘“’11’”’ in Season Two.”

The Recruit debuted on December 16 and spent five weeks on the Netflix TV Global Top 10 (English), reaching the Top 10 in 88 countries.

Centineo will return as executive producer and reprise his role as Owen Hendricks. As told to Tudum.com: “I know I speak for our entire cast and executive team at eOne and Netflix when I say that we are thrilled to be returning to The Recruit for a second season. I’m looking forward to seeing what Alexi Hawley has in store for us all.”

Season 1 centered around Owen Hendricks (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.

Fivel Stewart, Vondie Curtis Hall, Kristian Bruun, Aarti Mann, Colton Dunn and Daniel Quincy Annoh also starred in Season 1.
