Watch Special Ops: Lioness: Preview

An incredible A-list cast reports for duty in the new spy thriller from Taylor Sheridan. Zoe Saldaña and Laysla De Oliveira star as two undercover operatives of the Lioness Program, alongside Nicole Kidman (Big Little Lies) as the program’s calculating director Kaitlyn, and Morgan Freeman (Million Dollar Baby) in the role of the US Secretary of State. Based on the real-life US military initiative, this new series promises to be a gritty, nail-biting thrill ride, and you can find out how to watch Special Ops: Lioness online with our guide below.

Actor, award-winning writer, and now powerhouse TV producer Taylor Sheridan (Mayor of Kingstown, 1923: A Yellowstone Origin Story) brings viewers his latest, incendiary drama: an 8-part series based on the CIA’s Lioness Program.

“Sheridan was deeply inspired by the women in service,” Saldaña said of the show, “and he felt that it was just time to tell their stories in a form of celebration and appreciation for their work.” The Avatar and Columbiana actor plays Joe, the first Lioness and now station chief who trains new recruit Cruz (De Oliveira, Locke & Key) for a very high-risk operation: befriend the daughter of a suspected billionaire terrorist and obtain intel, without drawing suspicion and derailing the entire CIA program.

Also starring Sam Asghari (Black Monday), Michael Kelly (The Comey Rule), Jill Wagner and Dave Annable (Yellowstone), Sheridan’s latest promises to be a blast – full of gripping drama and nerve-shredding suspense. Just follow our guide below for how to watch Special Ops: Lioness online from anywhere with a subscription to Paramount Plus.

How to watch Special Ops: Lioness online from anywhere

If you're a US citizen on vacation or working overseas trying to access Paramount Plus, you can still watch Special Ops: Lioness online just as you would at home.

While services like Paramount Plus are only available in certain markets, there's a handy piece of software called a VPN which can change your IP address to make it look like you're accessing streaming services from any country in the world.

For example, US citizens overseas can subscribe to a VPN, join a US based server and access their subscription from anywhere in the world, just like you would back home.

Step-by-step of using a VPN to unblock:

1. Choose a VPN and install it - our go-to recommendation is ExpressVPN, with the 12-month plan offering the best value

2. Connect to a server - for Paramount Plus you'll want to connect to a server based in the US

3. Head over to your stream of choice - in this instance, Paramount Plus
