About the Show
Black Doves Season 2 is the anticipated next chapter of Netflix's high-stakes espionage thriller created and written by Joe Barton (The Lazarus Project, Giri/Haji) and produced by SISTER and Noisy Bear. Set against the atmospheric, shadow-drenched backdrop of London, the series follows Helen Webb (Oscar nominee Keira Knightley), a quick-witted, fiercely dedicated wife and mother who leads a perilous double life as an elite deep-cover operative for the clandestine shadowy organization known as the Black Doves.
Following the explosive fallout and deadly reckonings of Season 1, Helen is thrust deeper into a labyrinth of international intrigue, corporate subterfuge, and political assassination plots. Reunited with her loyal companion and lethal underworld operative Sam Young (Emmy and BAFTA winner Ben Whishaw), Helen must navigate fractured loyalties and lethal vendettas orchestrated by her enigmatic handler Reed (Sarah Lancashire). As shadowy figures circle and old ghosts return, Helen and Sam find themselves racing across Europe to stop a catastrophic conspiracy from unraveling the continent's balance of power.
