Past Lives and Love to Hate You actor Teo Yoo has joined the second season of Netflix’s The Recruit. He will join main lead Noah Centineo as a series regular, portraying a highly-skilled NIS agent “with a subversive sense of humor.”

The award-winning actor’s film and television credits include Pawn, New Year Blues, Decision to Leave, Vagabond, and Money Game. Yoo also received an Independent Spirit Award nomination for Celine Song’s Past Lives.

What is The Recruit about?

The first season of The Recruit began with CIA lawyer Owen Hendricks (Centineo) coming across a letter that threatens to reveal the secrets of his agency. Relatively new to the job, Owen soon finds himself thrown into a lethal world of international espionage.

Season 2 will reportedly put Owen into yet another dangerous situation in South Korea, where he will discover that the threat is closer than he thinks.

Per the show’s logline, The Recruit “centers around Owen Hendricks, 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.”

Created and executive produced by Alexi Hawley, the espionage series’ first season also starred Aarti Mann as Violet Ebner, Colton Dunn as Lester Kitchens, Fivel Stewart as Hannah Copeland, Kristian Bruun as Janus Ferber, and Vondie Curtis-Hall as Walter Nyland.

Besides starring as the show’s main lead, Centineo also served as The Recruit’s executive producer alongside Hawley, Doug Liman, Gene Klein, David Bartis, Adam Ciralsky, Charlie Ebersol, and Julian Holmes. The show’s producer is eOne.

No release date has been set yet for The Recruit Season 2, but it is expected to premiere sometime in 2024.
