If the title seems truncated, you’re right. Previously titled Special Ops: Lioness, the series returns under a new moniker. Just Lioness. It fits.

The eight-episode second season will premiere Sunday, October 27, with two episodes exclusively on Paramount+ in the U.S. and international markets where the service is available

Lioness features a star-studded cast, including series lead and executive producer Zoe Saldaña, Laysla De Oliveira, Genesis Rodriguez, and Emmy Award nominee Michael Kelly, with Oscar winner Morgan Freeman and Oscar and Emmy winner and executive producer Nicole Kidman.

The series is produced by MTV Entertainment Studios and 101 Studios exclusively for Paramount+. 

In season two, as the CIA’s fight against terror moves closer to home, Joe (Saldaña), Kaitlyn (Kidman), and Byron (Kelly) enlist a new Lioness operative to infiltrate a previously unknown threat.

With pressure mounting from all sides, Joe is forced to confront the profound personal sacrifices she has made as the leader of the Lioness program.

The trailer, seen below, is a pressure cooker of stress, signaling that there may not be enough love of country to keep the program thriving as things fall apart before their eyes.
