'The Little Drummer Girl' episode 2 preview: Charlie gets the script and is told "the audience is everywhere"
BBC 1 has released a clip teasing fans with what could happen on the upcoming episode of the Park Chan-wook directed adaptation of John Le Carre's 1983 novel, 'The Little Drummer Girl'. Starring Florence Pugh, Alexander Skarsgard, and Michael Shannon, the story follows the young and aspiring actress Charlie (played by Pugh) who becomes a matter of interest to the Mossad agents, Marty Kurtz (played by Michael Shannon) and Becker (played by Alexander Skarsgard). Marty, who is intolerant about the Arab-Israel conflict, is determined to get his hands on a terrorist.
The second episode is set to pick up from the loose ends that the first episode had left us with. The first episode saw Charlie being swept off to Athens by the alluring stranger, Becker, who seemed to have followed her everywhere. However, once in Athens, Becker's attitude changes as he begins to turn a cold shoulder to Charlie who is by now completely smitten by the stranger. While Charlie makes an attempt to connect with Becker, he walks out on her but later indulges in a maddening speed driving. Charlie is immediately scared and asks Becker to let her know if she is being kidnapped.
