After months of radio silence, delayed premieres, and more behind-the-scenes suspense than a Mossad debrief, Tehran is finally stepping back into the global spotlight. Apple TV has officially dated Season 3 and in a power move worthy of Tamar Rabinyan herself, the streamer renewed the spy thriller for Season 4 before the new season has even aired. Bold.
Season 3 lands on January 9, 2026, dropping fans back into the high-stakes chaos the series has perfected: covert missions, political fallout, and the kind of dangerous double-crossing that would give even Jason Bourne heartburn. Episodes will roll out weekly through late February, which means plenty of time to speculate wildly between cliffhangers. Apple clearly knows how to keep the fandom pacing their living rooms.
The new season introduces a heavy hitter: Hugh Laurie joins the cast as a South African nuclear inspector who is definitely not here for a good time but absolutely here to make Tamar’s life more complicated. Laurie’s icy precision feels tailor-made for Tehran’s brand of tense espionage, and his addition injects the sort of “oh, things are about to get uncomfortably real” energy that spy dramas thrive on.
Meanwhile, Niv Sultan returns as Tamar, shaken but not broken after Season 2’s explosive ending. Expect her to navigate new missions, new enemies, and the same morally messy world where trust is a luxury and loyalty gets renegotiated every 15 minutes.
The Season 4 renewal signals Apple’s growing confidence in Tehran as one of its flagship international dramas and given the series’ blend of geopolitical tension and tightly wound storytelling, it’s a smart bet.
Tehran’s comeback has all the ingredients for a powerhouse season star upgrades, raised stakes, and a renewal that promises even more chaos on the horizon. Spy fans, mark your calendars. Tamar’s world is about to get nuclear again, and watching her survive it remains some of Apple TV’s most addictive television.
