由迈克尔·法斯宾德主演的间谍剧《The Agency》目前正在Paramount+平台播出第二季[1]。该剧由兄弟档编剧杰兹和约翰·巴特沃思创作[1],讲述CIA特工布兰登·科尔比(代号"火星人")重返伦敦总部后陷入个人与职业危机的故事[1]。
《The Agency》是根据法国剧集《The Bureau》(《谍报局》)改编而来[1]。原版法剧共播出五季,在烂番茄网站获得96%的高评分[1]。美国版的制作投入远超原作——2013年法国版首季预算为1500万欧元(约2460万美元),而美国版首季预算超过2.46亿美元,规模增加超过十倍[1]。尽管制作规模大幅提升,《The Agency》保留了原作的法式美学特色[1]。
Paramount+ is currently broadcasting the second season of "The Agency," an espionage drama that represents some of the finest television in the genre despite receiving minimal mainstream attention [1]. The series stars Michael Fassbender as Brandon Colby, a CIA operative with the codename Martian, who confronts both personal and professional crises upon his return to the agency's London headquarters [1].
"The Agency" is an American adaptation of the acclaimed French series "Le Bureau des Légendes" (The Bureau), which achieved a 96% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and ran for five seasons [1]. The remake substantially amplifies the production scale of its source material—the original French series operated on a first-season budget of €15 million ($24.6 million) in 2013, while "The Agency" commands a budget exceeding 10 times that amount, surpassing $246 million for its inaugural season [1]. The adaptation retains the aesthetic sensibilities of the French original while expanding its scope considerably [1]. The series was written by brothers Jez and John Butterworth [1].
