Following the second trailer’s release, many Netflix subscribers have been taking to X, formerly Twitter, to express their reactions so far.

“Stop I can’t wait for this,” one fan exclaimed.

“Yes! Keira Knightley is amazing!” another praised.

“Ooh, that sounds intense! I’m adding it to my watchlist,” a third viewer added.

Black Doves – which is set in London at Christmas – has already been recommissioned for a second season. The news of its renewal was announced in August, four months before its official debut.

Per Netflix’s logline, the first season of Black Doves will follow Knightley’s character Helen Webb, “a quick-witted, down-to-earth, dedicated wife and mother — and professional spy.”

Netflix continues: “For 10 years, she’s been passing on her politician husband’s secrets to the shadowy organisation she works for: the Black Doves. When her secret lover Jason (Andrew Koji) is assassinated, her spymaster, the enigmatic Reed (Sarah Lancashire), calls in Helen’s old friend Sam (Ben Whishaw) to keep her safe.”

Netflix adds: “Together, Helen and Sam set off on a mission to investigate who killed Jason and why, leading them to uncover a vast, interconnected conspiracy linking the murky London underworld to a looming geopolitical crisis.”

All six episodes of Black Doves will debut on Netflix on December 5.
