Gary Oldman and ‘Slow Horses’ Cast Continue Exciting Journey with Season 6 Filming
At the recent Golden Globes ceremony, where “Slow Horses” and its star Gary Oldman were nominated, the cast of the popular Apple TV+ series offered some exciting updates about their upcoming season. While Gary Oldman and Jack Lowden found themselves without Golden Globe wins, their spirits were undoubtedly lifted by a glimpse into the future of their beloved show.
Confirming the Cast: Gary Oldman, Jack Lowden, and Director Adam Randall
Speaking with Extra TV, Oldman discussed the lineup for filming: “This is Adam Randall who directed season four and is directing season six, which we’re all going back to tomorrow.” When confusion arose about why they were preparing for season six before season five had premiered, Oldman clarified, “Five is coming out, and then we’re in the middle of six.”
Expedited Production Due to Pre-Approvals
Despite season five’s release date not yet being set, its filming wrapped up early last year. The swift greenlight for season six in October allowed production to commence immediately. This efficient workflow ensures that season six should wrap up within the next few months, promising a timely return for fans.
Season 6: A Double Header of Herron Novels
A significant change for season six involves adapting not one but two of Mick Herron’s Slough House novels. The series will explore both “Joe Country” and “Slough House,” marking a departure from previous single-novel adaptations. While the episode count is still uncertain, this bountiful source material guarantees a vibrant continuation of the story.
The Future of ‘Slow Horses’
With eight novels and five novellas available, along with another novel due this year, “Slow Horses” has a wealth of material to draw from. This ensures the show could continue for up to eight or nine seasons, providing ample content for dedicated fans and newcomers alike.
Upcoming Premieres
Fans can anticipate season five launching on Apple TV+ by the end of the year, followed closely by season six. The relentless momentum of the production team underscores their commitment to keeping the series gripping and fresh.
Conclusion
The resurgence of “Slow Horses” demonstrates the enduring appeal of Gary Oldman’s performances and the masterful storytelling of Mick Herron’s novels. With season five just around the corner and the ambitious plans for season six, this show stands poised to captivate audiences for months to come.
