Genesis Rodriguez is making night moves…

The 37-year-old Cuban-Venezuelan actress has entered negotiations for a role in the third season of the hit conspiracy thriller The Night Agent.

Genesis Rodriguez,While specifics as to Rodriguez’s part are being kep under wraps, Deadline reports that Rodriguez will be a series regular.

Production on the third season is set to kick off in Istanbul at the end of this year, with a New York shoot to follow in 2025. Netflix announced the show’s Season 3 renewal in October.

An adaptation of Matthew Quirk’s New York Times bestseller, the first season of which ranks #7 on Netflix’s Most Popular TV chart, The Night Agent sees the FBI’s Peter Sutherland (Basso) manning a phone in the basement of the White House that never rings — until the night that it does, propelling him into a fast moving and dangerous conspiracy that leads all the way to the Oval Office.

In past interviews, creator, showrunner and EP Shawn Ryan has spoken to the fact that each season of the show will be a self-contained story, opening the door to new plot lines and characters with each go-round. Season 1 was set in and around Washington D.C. and filmed in Vancouver, with the second 10-episode season primarily shooting in New York City, with additional filming in Thailand and Washington, D.C. 

The series is produced by Sony Pictures Television.

In Season 2, Basso is joined by returning Season 1 cast member Luciane Buchanan, as well as newcomers like Amanda Warren, Berto Colon, Louis Herthum, Arienne Mandi, Brittany Snow, and Teddy Sears.

Currently in the midst of a breakout moment with the sophomore season of Lioness, Taylor Sheridan’s spy thriller for Paramount+, Rodriguez plays Captain Josephina Carillo aka this season’s female undercover operative, or “Lioness.” Airing weekly, the show has her going toe to toe with Zoe Saldaña, Morgan Freeman and Nicole Kidman.

Getting her start on NBC Universal/Telemundo’s Prisonera, Dame Chocolate and Dona Barbara, the Miami-born actress has also been seen in Netflix’s series The Umbrella Academy and Neon, as well as Kevin Smith’s The 4:30 Movie.
