Netflix has set an October premiere date for “The Diplomat” Season 2.
The Keri Russell-led political thriller will return to the streamer on October 31 with its second installment, Netflix announced Thursday, alongside first-look images of Russell as a distressed Kate Wyler.
Season 2 will pick up after the dramatic cliffhanger in the Season 1 finale, in which a dramatic explosion left both Kate’s husband Hal (Rufus Sewell) and MP Merritt Grove (Simon Chandler) in peril. It seems as though the fallout of the perilous event will be revealed in the Season 2 premiere, as the first look image depicts Russell’s Kate in her red dress from the Season 1 finale.
