Lioness is about a special team within the CIA which fights terror by placing operatives within terror organizations. In season 2, the threat is a lot closer to home and the team will need to use a new operative to help them stop the danger.
Starring Zoe Saldana, Nicole Kidman, Morgan Freeman and Genesis Rodriguez, Lioness was created by TV powerhouse Taylor Sheridan as a rare non-neo-Western series by him.
So if you're excited to watch Lioness, here's how to do so.
How to watch Lioness season 2

The first season of Lioness is also on the streaming service, so if you need to catch up, all the episodes are in the same place.
Paramount Plus costs $7.99 / £6.99 for a subscription. This basic tier is enough to watch Lioness though in the US it's an ad-enabled plan; $12.99 gets you onto the premium tier which lets you avoid ads.
