Chris is a Senior News Writer for Collider. He can be found in an IMAX screen, with his eyes watering and his ears bleeding for his own pleasure. He joined the news team in 2022 and accidentally fell upwards into a senior position despite his best efforts.
For reasons unknown, he enjoys analyzing box office receipts, giant sharks, and has become known as the go-to man for all things Bosch, Mission: Impossible and Christopher Nolan in Collider's news division. Recently, he found himself yeehawing along to the Dutton saga on the Yellowstone Ranch.
He is proficient in sarcasm, wit, Photoshop and working unfeasibly long hours. Amongst his passions sit the likes of the history of the Walt Disney Company, the construction of theme parks, steam trains and binge-watching Gilmore Girls with a coffee that is just hot enough to scald him.
His obsession with the Apple TV+ series Silo is the subject of mockery within the Senior News channel, where his feelings about Taylor Sheridan's work are enough to make his fellow writers roll their eyes.

It’s been a long time coming, but after almost ten years, The Night Manager is finally back. Prime Video and the BBC have announced that Season 2 of the hit John le Carré–inspired thriller will premiere on Sunday, January 11, 2026, marking the return of Tom Hiddleston’s Jonathan Pine. But for fans in the UK, it's now been announced that they'll be getting things a bit earlier. The series will debut with a three-episode premiere on BBC iPlayer and on BBC One on January 1, followed by weekly installments each Sunday through February 1, when the sixth and final episode arrives.
Season 2 brings together an exciting blend of returning favorites and new faces, with Hiddleston back as Jonathan Pine alongside Olivia Colman as Angela Burr, Alistair Petrie as Sandy Langbourne, Douglas Hodge as Rex Mayhew, Michael Nardone as Frisky, and Noah Jupe as Daniel Roper. Joining them for the new chapter are Camila Morrone as Roxana, Diego Calva as Teddy Dos Santos, Indira Varma as Mayra, Paul Chahidi as Basil, and Hayley Squires as Sally.
What Is 'The Night Manager' Season 2 About?
The first season, in 2016, followed former British intelligence officer Jonathan Pine as he infiltrated the criminal empire of arms dealer Richard Roper (Hugh Laurie). But Season 2 picks up nearly a decade later, with Pine trying to live a quiet life under his new identity, Alex Goodwin, as a low-level MI6 surveillance officer in present-day London. That peace shatters when Pine spots a familiar mercenary from Roper’s old circle — a sighting that drags him back into the underworld he once escaped. His forced return to the field leads to a brutal confrontation with Teddy Dos Santos (Diego Calva), a Colombian businessman with ties to arms trafficking and guerrilla warfare.
Pine’s mission is a globetrotting one, which eventually takes him to South America and Colombia, where he partners with Roxana Bolaños (Camila Morrone), a savvy business entrepreneur with her own motives. Together, they dive into Teddy’s violent operation while Pine races to uncover a conspiracy that could destabilize an entire nation. Surrounded by shifting alliances and deadly betrayals, Pine must decide who he can trust — and how far he’s willing to go.
The Night Manager Season 2 arrives on BBC One in the UK on January 1 and on Prime Video in the US on January 11.
