A first trailer for the remake of Bureau of Legends

Michael Fassbender as Mathieu Kassovitz

The success of the famous series created by Eric Rochant, The Office of Legendsit went well beyond national borders. Appreciated all over the world, it gave ideas to George Clooney and his close collaborator Grant Heslov, who produced the American remake: The Agency. Scheduled for late November in the United States on Paramount+ and Showtime, the series has not yet announced the airing date in France. And the impatience becomes even greater with the presentation of a very attractive trailer (video at the top of the article).

If the series The Agency is based on The Office of Legendsthe CIA is not the DGSE and the American treatment of the spy thriller appears very different from the French one. Indeed, these first images give pride of place to a spectacular action and a form of chaos in which the prestigious casting struggles. Kidnappings, murders, alliances and betrayals… We can guess in this trailer that the main character, played by Michael Fassbender and called “Martian”, will quickly go over to the side of the “rogues”, as Malotru did in his time.” (Mathieu Kassovitz).

An XXL casting for The Agency

To navigate the dangerous geopolitical and intimate intrigues of The AgencyMichael Fassbender is very well surrounded. Richard Gere then plays “Bosko”, a character who appears to be superior to “Martian”, and Jeffrey Wright is “Henry”, whose function and ties to “Martian” remain mysterious. Furthermore, Jodie Turner-Smith in the role of Sami Zahir seems very close to Nadia El Mansour, the character played by Zineb Triki in The Office of Legends.
