In the upcoming third season of the award-winning Israeli drama “Tehran,” actor Hugh Laurie will play Eric Peterson, a nuclear plant supervisor acting alongside Niv Sultan, who plays lead character, Mossad spy Tamar Rabinyan.
The second season of the Kan 11 and Apple TV+ drama about a group of Israeli Mossad operatives in the Iranian city brought veteran actor Glenn Close into the tense storyline.
Laurie is known for his long-standing role of Dr. Gregory House from 2004 to 2012 on the Fox medical drama series “House,” as well as Senator Tom James in the HBO sitcom “Veep” (2012–2019), for which he received his tenth Emmy Award nomination.
Other new actors appearing in this latest season of “Tehran” are Sasson Gabbai and Phoenix Raei.
Filming has begun on the new season. It will be released on Kan 11 and Apple TV+.

As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
