Special Ops: Lioness S1
Zoe Saldaña won the 2024 Critics Choice Super Award for Best Actress: Action for her performance in Lioness as Joe McNamara, the leader of an undercover all-women US special ops team dedicated to befriending the wives, girlfriends or daughters of high-value terrorist targets and working to turn them for the CIA.
Created by Taylor Sheridan (Yellowstone, Tulsa King), Lioness became Paramount+'s most-watched global series when it launched.
The hit series stars Oscar winner Morgan Freeman, four-time Emmy nominee Michael Kelly (Hank Stamper in House of Cards), and Oscar winner Nicole Kidman, who was nominated for a 2025 Critics Choice Award as Kaitlyn Meade.
In Season 2, as the CIA’s fight against terror moves closer to home, Joe, Kaitlyn, and Byron enlist a new Lioness operative to infiltrate a previously unknown threat. With pressure mounting from all sides, Joe is forced to confront the profound personal sacrifices she has made as the leader of the Lioness program.
