The Night Manager returns with Taylor Swift's ex Tom Hiddleston spotted filming scenes
The Night Manager is finally returning to our screens with Tom Hiddleston reprising his role as Jonathan Pine.
The BBC One and Amazon Prime Video series is based on the 1993 novel by John le Carré and was released in 2016, with the likes of House's Hugh Laurie and Academy Award winner Olivia Colman fronting the show. It was nominated for many awards and won eleven, including two Primetime Emmy Aways and three Golden Globe Awards
Back in April, the BBC confirmed two more series of spy thriller series will be returning to our screens. In the new series, model and actress Camila Morrone was seen rocking a cream silk blouse with matching trousers. She draped a trench coat over her shoulders as she was seen glumly walking down the street.
Other snaps from the set showed Tom sporting black trousers, a long-sleeved shirt and slicked-back hair as he joked around with Camila. The Victoria's Secret model threw her head back and laughed while Tom giggled opposite her as the duo chatted away with cast and crew members.

He was also seen transforming into his character as he wore black-rimmed glasses. The Loki actor looked serious as he stepped into a vehicle for a scene filmed in London.
The new series will once again be written by series creator David Farr. BAFTA winner Georgi Banks-Davies is directing all six episodes of it. The Night Manager will pick up with Tom's character Jonathan Pine eight years after the shocking finale of season one.
Tom previously said of the new season: “The first series of The Night Manager was one of the most creatively fulfilling projects I have ever worked on. The depth, range and complexity of Jonathan Pine was, and remains, a thrilling prospect. I’m so looking forward to reuniting with Simon and Stephen Cornwell, David Farr and Stephen Garrett, and to working with Georgi Banks-Davies to tell the next chapter of our story. I can’t wait.”

David Farr also added: “John le Carré's work has long been an inspiration to me and working closely with him on Season 1 was an honour and a pleasure. I did not tread lightly into extending The Night Manager beyond the original book, but an idea came to me a couple of years ago which felt truthful to that unique world of dark corners and shady identities. No one marries the suspense of espionage with a deep exploration of the human soul quite like le Carré.
"I hope that in some way we can pay homage to his uneasy genius in this new exploration. I am thrilled to be working again with Tom Hiddleston, Stephen Garrett and The Ink Factory team, and to be welcoming the brilliant director Georgi Banks-Davies into our ranks.”
