The spy-assassin duo you didn’t know you needed. Keira Knightley and Ben Whishaw team up in Black Doves, a six-part spy thriller set at Christmas. Watch all episodes, also starring Sarah Lancashire, from December 5.
Today, Netflix released the second and final official trailer for BLACK DOVES Season 1, which premieres globally on Netflix on December 5th, 2024.
Set against the backdrop of London at Christmas, BLACK DOVES is a sharp, action-filled and heartfelt story of friendship and sacrifice. It follows Helen Webb (Keira Knightley), a quick-witted, down to earth, dedicated wife and mother – and professional spy. For 10 years, she’s been passing on her politician husband’s secrets to the shadowy organisation she works for: the Black Doves. When her secret lover Jason (Andrew Koji) is assassinated, her spymaster, the enigmatic Reed (Sarah Lancashire), calls in Helen’s old friend Sam (Ben Whishaw) to keep her safe. Together, Helen and Sam set off on a mission to investigate who killed Jason and why, leading them to uncover a vast, interconnected conspiracy linking the murky London underworld to a looming geopolitical crisis.
Netflix has already confirmed that Black Doves will return for a Season 2.
