First debuting on Netflix in April 2023, ‘The Diplomat’ garnered widespread appreciation from viewers while critics also lauded the show.

Her role in season 1 secured Keri Russell an Emmy and a Golden Globe nomination while the show also picked up a Golden Globe nod for best drama series among several other accolades.

As per the official description of the show, “A deadly explosion in the heart of London shatters US Ambassador Kate Wyler’s world (Russell). Struggling to rebuild the lives that broke and the team that split apart, Kate’s worst fears unfold: The attack that brought her to the UK didn’t come from a rival nation, it came from inside the British government. As Kate chases the truth, her only real ally is her almost-ex-husband Hal Wyler (Sewell), very much alive, and very much involved. She faces a fraught marriage, a complex dynamic with British Foreign Secretary Austin Dennison (Gyasi), and a threatening visit from Vice President Grace Penn (Janney).”
