The Night Manager season 2 star shares new filming picture with Tom Hiddleston
A sneak peek behind the scenes of the highly anticipated follow-up.
Camila Morrone, one of the new cast members joining The Night Manager season 2, has shared a behind-the-scenes snap of her and co-star Tom Hiddleston.
It's our first look at anything Night Manager season 2-related and a good time is clearly being had on set, as we see the two stars posing back-to-back with under-eye masks in a Polaroid picture stuck up in what appears to be a dressing room.
Morrone shared the picture on her Instagram and wrote: "Pine & Roxana have been MIA workin hard to bring you The Night Manager Season 2."
While the image doesn't reveal much, we now know the name of Morrone's character is Roxana, as revealed in her post – it's previously been confirmed that the Daisy Jones & The Six star's role is set to be a major one in the upcoming instalment.
And, of course, Hiddleston is reprising his leading role as Jonathan Pine.
They will be joining returning characters such as Olivia Colman's Angela Burr, Alistair Petrie's Sandy Langbourne, Douglas Hodge's Rex Mayhew, Michael Nardone's Frisky and Noah Jupe's Daniel Roper.
There are a number of new faces joining the series too, with Diego Calva (Babylon), Indira Varma (Doctor Who), Paul Chahidi (Wicked Little Letters) and Hayley Squires (Inside No. 9) all on board for The Night Manager season 2.
On the announcement of the returning cast, Lindsay Salt, Director of BBC Drama, said in a statement: "Olivia Colman’s award-winning role as Angela Burr in the first series of The Night Manager was unforgettable and we are over the moon that she is back alongside Tom Hiddleston.
"We have such a strong cast and with Alistair Petrie, Douglas Hodge, Michael Nardone and Noah Jupe also returning, and filming starting in London, the second series of The Night Manager promises to provide even more drama, glamour, intrigue and suspense."

While we're starting to get some small titbits around the cast, not much else is known about the content of the new season itself. We do know, though, that the time between seasons will be reflected in the narrative and it will pick up eight years after the original series.
Speaking previously to Deadline about that time jump, Hiddleston said: "What I'm really excited by is that eight or nine years have passed since the first season."
