‘Slow Horses' Season 5 Gets Fall Premiere Date On Apple TV+; First Look Photos Show Nick Mohammed In Guest Role

Slow Horses will return to Apple TV+ for Season 5 this fall. The streamer revealed Tuesday that the fifth installment of the espionage drama will debut with the first two episodes on September 24, followed by one episode weekly until October 22. Luckily, there's already a Season 6 incoming, too, as the series was renewed in October.

They don't give away much, but there is a glimpse of Nick Mohammed will also guest star in Season 5. See those below. Slow Horses is a darkly humorous espionage drama that follows a dysfunctional team of British intelligence agents who serve in a dumping ground department of MI5 known unaffectionately as Slough House. Gary Oldman stars as Jackson Lamb, the brilliant but cantankerous leader of the spies, who end up in Slough House due to their career-ending mistakes as they frequently find themselves blundering around the smoke and mirrors of the espionage world. In Season 5, everyone is suspicious when resident tech nerd Roddy Ho has a glamorous new girlfriend, but when a series of increasingly bizarre events occur across the city, it falls to the Slow Horses to work out how everything is connected. After all, Lamb knows that in the world of espionage, the London Rules — cover your back — always apply. The cast also includes Kristin Scott Thomas, Jack Lowden, Saskia Reeves, Rosalind Eleazar, Christopher Chung, Aimee-Ffion Edwards, Ruth Bradley, James Callis, Tom Brooke, and Jonathan Pryce. Slow Horses is produced for Apple TV+ by Heartstopper maker See-Saw Films, with Jamie Laurenson, Hakan Kousetta, Julian Stevens, Iain Canning, Emile Sherman, Adam Randall, Gail Mutrux, Douglas Urbanski and Oldman serving as executive producers. Saul Metzstein, who earned an Emmy nomination for Season 3, returns to helm Season 5.

Gary Oldman's Slow Horses Season 5 to premiere on this date

An adaptation of Mick Herron's Slough House novel series, the drama charts the adventures of Gray Oldman's Slough House boss Jackson Lamb and his espionage colleagues relegated from the MI5. According to the official logline, in the upcoming season of the series, "Everyone is suspicious when resident tech nerd Roddy Ho has a glamorous new girlfriend, but when a series of increasingly bizarre events occur across the city, it falls to the Slow Horses to work out how everything is connected. After all, Lamb knows that in the world of espionage, the London Rules — cover your back — always apply.'

‘Slow Horses' season 5 has an official release date – and a first look at Jackson Lamb

MI5's finest – well, -ish – are back. An Apple TV+ show that only gets better and better, Slow Horses is returning for a fifth run this autumn. September 24 is the date to earmark for the return of Gary Oldman's schlebby spymaster Jackson Lamb and his band of misfit heroes at Slough House. The first two episodes will launch on that day, with the final four to follow once a week every Wednesday until October 22. Season five is adapted from Mick Herron's 2018 Slough House novel London Rules and sees Ted Lasso star Nick Mohammed join the ensemble as an ambitious mayoral candidate. 'In season five, everyone is suspicious when resident tech nerd Roddy Ho has a glamorous new girlfriend, but when a series of increasingly bizarre events occur across the city, it falls to the Slow Horses to work out how everything is connected,' runs the official synopsis. 'After all, Lamb knows that in the world of espionage, the London Rules – cover your back – always apply.' Clocking back in for another shift under the critical eye of Jackson Lamb are Jack Lowden's once fast-tracked agent River Cartwright, Saskia Reeves as long-suffering Slough House stalwart Catherine Standish, Rosalind Eleazar as recovering coke addict Louisa Guy, and Christopher Chung as obnoxious hacker/IT whiz Roddy Ho. Kristin Scott Thomas is back as scheming MI5 deputy director general Diana Taverner and James Callis is the hapless agency head she has wrapped around her little finger. Jonathan Pryce is back as River's ex-spy dad David Cartwright. Expect more grimily realistic London locations, more blackly comic twists and byzantine espionage scheming as Lamb and his Slough House acolytes butt up against the slick technocrats of MI5 and a variety of other nefarious forces.

'Slow Horses' season 5 release date just confirmed — here's when it returns to Apple TV Plus

"Slow Horses" season 5 just got its Apple TV Plus release date. TVLine is reporting that season 5 will premiere on Apple's streaming service on Wednesday, Sept. 24, with a two-episode premiere. Now, it's important to note that this is not an official announcement from Apple. But TVLine is considered a reputable outlet, and we have no reason to suspect that their reporting on this release date is inaccurate. Especially since I already had some suspicions that season 5 would arrive in September. When Apple revealed its slate of Apple TV Plus Summer 2025 shows and movies, Slow Horses made an appearance in the YouTube teaser trailer. Given that, outside of season 1, "Slow Horses" has always debuted in or just outside of the fall season, I assumed that a summer 2025 release window implied an early September release date, given summer doesn't end until September 21 this year. I was close! Last year, season 4 debuted on September 4, 2024, which was still technically in the summer. So with that reference point, I guessed that season 5 would come on Wednesday, September 3. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. I got the Wednesday part right and the September part right. I was just a few weeks early on the exact date. Season 5 of "Slow Horses" is an adaptation of "London Rules," Mick Herron's fifth novel in the "Slough House" series. It's the direct sequel to "Spook Street," which was the basis for "Slow Horses" season 4. Apple's official synopsis reads: "In season 5 of 'Slow Horses,' everyone is suspicious when resident tech nerd Roddy Ho has a glamorous new girlfriend, but when a series of increasingly bizarre events occur across the city, it falls to the Slow Horses to work out how everything is connected. After all, Jackson Lamb knows that in the world of espionage, 'London Rules' should always apply." Based on that synopsis and the season 5 teaser trailer above, we know Ho and Lamb will be in the spotlight in season 5. And the last thing you want when you're a spy is to be in the spotlight. Malcolm has been with Tom's Guide since 2022, and has been covering the latest in streaming shows and movies since 2023. He's not one to shy away from a hot take, including that "John Wick" is one of the four greatest films ever made. Here's what he's been watching lately:
