About The Spy Who Came In From The Cold

The Spy Who Came In From The Cold—a landmark in 20th-century fiction—makes its long-awaited theatrical debut in a gripping new adaptation that promises to be the must-see drama of the autumn season.

Step into the shadowy world of Cold War espionage, where trust is a luxury and betrayal is a currency. British agent Alec Leamas is battle-worn and ready to retire—until one final, high-stakes mission pulls him back into the game. Sent behind enemy lines, Leamas must navigate a web of lies, danger, and unexpected emotion when he crosses paths with Liz Gold, a quietly courageous librarian who challenges everything he thought he knew.

A global bestseller for over 60 years and named one of TIME’s 100 greatest novels, le Carré’s masterpiece is a razor-sharp exploration of loyalty, love, and the cost of deception.
