The Agency features Fassbender in the role of Martian, a secretive CIA operative who, against his will, must leave his concealed identity and return to London. In this city, he rekindles his old flame, the one he had to leave before.
“The official summary goes on to describe a situation where his job, true self, and objectives collide with his emotions, thrusting him into a perilous world of global secrets and spying.

In a conversation with Empire regarding the remake, Bonneville stated: “We’re simply exchanging one for another without any pretense. It wasn’t a messy separation or anything. Emily appears to be an ideal match for the role.
