Hugo Weaving’s Slow Horses Villain Knew He Was Asking Too Much
“There’s humor in the fact he even makes the offer.”
The fourth season of Apple TV+’s Slow Horses concludes with a big ol’ reveal: Frank Harkness, the rogue intelligence operative our titular bargain-bin agents have been chasing the whole time, isn’t just the head of a mercenary cabal staffed with men he’s brainwashed since childhood. Played by a reliably sneering Hugo Weaving (known to most viewers for his portrayals of Agent Smith in The Matrix films and original-recipe Elrond in Peter Jackson’s The Lord of the Rings franchise), the actor brings his signature intensity and an electric sliminess to Harkness. Harkness returns for more books in Mick Herron’s Slough House novels from which Slow Horses is adapted, so you can be pretty much certain that you’ll see Weaving share the screen with Lowden again.
