Line of Duty star Vicky McClure celebrates as she wraps up filming for series two of Alex Rider

Line of Duty star Vicky McClure was all smiles as she enjoyed a celebratory drink following the conclusion of filming for the second series of Alex Rider.

The 37-year-old actress, who plays Mrs Jones in the Amazon Prime series, posed for a black-and-white selfie taken outside while on set, alongside her co-star Otto Farrant, who stars in the titular lead role.

The two flashed a grin for the camera as they sat with drinks situated on a table, while they wrapped up warm in coats to beat the chilly weather.

Vicky wrote: ‘That’s a wrap on @alexridertv series 2 for Mrs Jones!

‘Massive love to the brilliant, fun & hugely talented crew & cast! Otto Farrant = true pro super hero!

‘Hope you all enjoy it!’

Alex Rider, which is based on the book series by Anthony Horowitz, focuses on a teenager from London who has been trained as a spy since childhood.

The show was confirmed to be renewed for a second season last year, although a premiere date has yet to be announced.

With filming only recently wrapping up, we hope that we can see the season premiere before the end of 2021.

The next instalment will be based on Eagle Strike, the fourth novel in the franchise.

Brad Beale, Vice President of Worldwide Content Acquisition for Prime Video, said in a statement at the time: ‘We can’t wait for our customers to see what is to come in the next action-packed season.’

While Wayne Garvie, President of International Production, Sony Pictures Television added: ‘We’re thrilled that audiences in over 100 global territories connected with Alex Rider so enthusiastically since it launched on Amazon Prime Video in the UK this summer.

‘Escapism and entertainment have never been more important than they are this year, and I know that what Anthony and the team at Eleventh Hour have planned for Eagle Strike will keep everyone on the edge of their seats.’

Sounds promising.

Meanwhile, Die Another Day star Toby Stephens has been cast as tech billionaire Damian Cray, while Raki Ayola will play CIA deputy director Jo Byrne. Newcomer Charithra Chandran will portray teenager Sabina Pleasance.

Season one of Alex Rider is available to stream on Amazon Prime.
