Netflix's Hit Spy Thriller Returns and Takes Over Streaming Charts

Keira Knightley has a knack for playing smart, determined women who refuse to back down when things get dangerous. Whether she's exposing government secrets in Official Secrets, investigating a serial killer in Boston Strangler, or navigating a deadly mystery aboard a luxury yacht in Netflix's The Woman in Cabin 10, Knightley has become a natural fit for tense thrillers.

Now, she's back in the spy business with a returning Netflix series that's attracting plenty of streaming attention.

The second season of Black Doves arrived on Nov. 5, and the spy thriller wasted little time climbing Netflix's charts. The series reached No. 2 on the global Netflix TV chart, according FlixPatrol. Netflix's own weekly figures also show that season 2 of Black Doves attracted 3.8 million views between Nov. 2 and Nov. 8, making it the fourth most-watched English-language series of the week.

Black Doves follows Helen Webb (Knightley), a seemingly ordinary politician's wife and mother who is secretly working as a spy for a clandestine organization called the Black Doves. For a decade, she has been passing along her husband's political secrets to the organization while maintaining her carefully constructed family life.

However, Helen's double life becomes considerably more dangerous when her secret lover, Jason (Andrew Koji), is murdered. Her employer calls in her longtime friend Sam Young (Ben Whishaw), an assassin with a complicated past, to protect her while she investigates the killing. Their search soon uncovers a much larger conspiracy involving London's criminal underworld and international politics.
