The Old Man is an American drama thriller television series based on the 2017 novel of the same name by Thomas Perry. It was developed by Jonathan E. Steinberg and Robert Levine and premiered on FX on June 16, 2022. The first season consists of seven episodes. Following its premiere, the series was renewed for a second season.

Dan Chase (Jeff Bridges) is a former CIA operative who has been living off-the-grid in Vermont for thirty years. After killing an intruder who breaks into his home, Chase is forced into hiding. While in hiding, Chase rents a room from Zoe McDonald (Amy Brenneman), with whom he is forced to partner while on the run.

FBI Assistant Director for Counterintelligence Harold Harper (John Lithgow) is called upon to bring in Chase because of their complicated past during the Soviet–Afghan War. Working alongside Harper are his proteges, FBI agent Angela Adams (Alia Shawkat; in fact Chase's daughter Emily) and CIA officer Raymond Waters (E. J. Bonilla), as well as Julian Carson (Gbenga Akinnagbe), a hit-man hired by Harper to kill Chase.
