Sewell plays her estranged, infuriating, but charming political star husband Hal.
The ensemble also includes David Gyasi, Ali Ahn, Rory Kinnear and Ato Essandoh.
"Season 1 ended with Kate's realization that the attack on a British warship [that] brought her to the U.K. wasn't the work of a hostile nation -- it was the British prime minister," show creator Debora Cahn said.
"Now she has to prove it," Cahn added. "The U.S. and the U.K. don't spy on each other. In fact, they share all their intelligence. So, how do you investigate the prime minister? Who do you trust?"
