Overview
- Episode 1 debuted Jan. 11 at 9 p.m. ET on HBO and HBO Max, with U.K. streaming on BBC iPlayer Jan. 12 and a BBC One broadcast that night.
- The season runs eight episodes releasing weekly on Sundays in the U.S. through March 1, with corresponding Monday airings in the U.K.
- HBO’s synopsis places Harper and Yasmin in a high-stakes, globe-spanning cat-and-mouse pursuit sparked by a splashy fintech entrant.
- New cast members include Max Minghella, Kiernan Shipka, Charlie Heaton, Kal Penn and Claire Forlani, alongside returning leads; Harry Lawtey is not returning.
- Co-creators Mickey Down and Konrad Kay say the season is more accelerated and deliberately provocative, with a renewed emphasis on explicit, carefully staged sex scenes.
