Noah Centineo’s Netflix spy thriller The Recruit season 2 is filming big driving stunts with “exposed weapons” near Derby Reach in north Langley.
Production on season 2 winds down in Vancouver later this month as the series heads to Seoul, South Korea.
The Recruit follows inexperienced Owen Hendricks (Noah Centineo), a lawyer at the CIA who keeps getting entangled in dangerous international power politics.
Season 2 finds Hendricks pulled into a life-threatening espionage situation in South Korea, only to realize that the bigger threat just might be coming from inside the Agency.
