How to watch 'The Agency' online from anywhere with a Paramount Plus free trial

3 hours ago 3

A remake of classic French series "Le Bureau", even with George Clooney as a producer and an all-star cast, spy thriller "The Agency" has a lot to live up to. Michael Fassbender plays the agent leaving one life behind to rejoin another and re-engage with his daughter and others he loves. Inevitably, the job refuses to him to get away that easily and he is soon drawn back in.

The first two episodes of "The Agency" premiere on Paramount Plus in the U.S. and internationally — viewers can watch it from anywhere with a VPN.

A doctor with the agency tasked with helping Fassbender's character adjust back to normal life wants to know if it is possible he has anything to hide. He details the basic requirements of long-term mission from which he has just returned: "Lie to everyone, pretend to be someone you're not, risk your life on a daily basis, no glamour, no exploding watch... I believe there's one type of agent, the insane."

He is a damaged man trying to rebuild his life and relationships but, as ever, there is one more mission. An agent has gone rogue and he is required to bring him back - "Whatever it takes [but] make it invisible." Is he in the right place mentally ? Has a life spent in the shadows taken its toll? These are the questions he must wrestle with as he, once again, risks everything for the agency.

What was original French series "Le Bureau des légendes" all about?

"Le Bureau" or "Le Bureau des legends" originally aired in France in April 2015 and was based upon real accounts by former agents employed by the Directorate-General for External Security, the country's principal external security service. The Bureau was responsible for training and handling deep-cover agents on long-term missions in regions such as North Africa and the Middle East.
