Netflix has released the full Q-Force trailer for the upcoming adult-animated comedy series, centering around the very first queer spy division. The 10-episode series is scheduled to make its debut on Thursday, September 2.
The video, which you can check out in the player below, begins with Agent Mary, described as the best of the best, who surprises his agency by finally coming out as a gay man. However, despite his achievements and talents, he has been downgraded to a small division in West Hollywood. In order to prove themselves to the agency that underestimated them, Mary leads a group of scrappy LGBQT+ spies to fight bad guys and solve missions.

Q-Force will feature the voices of Sean Hayes as Agent Mary, Wanda Sykes as Agent Deb, Patti Harrison as Agent Stat, David Harbour as Agent Buck, and Matt Rogers as Agent Twink. Joining them are Gary Cole as Director Dirk Chunley, the head of the AIA; Laurie Metcalf as V, Deputy Director and highest-ranking woman at AIA, and a badass with a soft spot for Agent Mary; and Gabe Liedman as Benji, Mary’s sweet and charming love interest who often is in peril due to his proximity to Q-Force.
“Steve Maryweather, AKA Agent Mary, who was once the Golden Boy of the American Intelligence Agency (AIA), until he came out as gay,” according to the official synopsis. “Unable to fire him, the Agency sent him off to West Hollywood, to disappear into obscurity. Instead, he assembled a misfit squad of LGBTQ+ geniuses. Joining forces with the expert mechanic Deb, master of drag and disguise Twink, and hacker Stat, together they’re Q-Force.”
“But, after a decade of waiting for their first official mission from The AIA, Mary becomes hell-bent on proving himself to the Agency that turned its back on him, and decides to go rogue with Q-Force. After finding their own case, and solving it on their own terms, they get the reluctant approval of The AIA, and are officially upgraded to Active Secret Agents in the field. But, that approval comes with one major caveat– they must put up with a new member of the squad: straight-guy Agent Buck.”
