It was in the mid late 2000s. It was a miniseries.

Supposedly they are making a movie (franchise hopefully) out of Jason Matthews' "Red Sparrow" books. They are awesome. Very entertaining, but with more real tradecraft insight and realistic intelligence community info than the huge majority of the genre (Matthews was a Clandestine Service officer).

I think Jlaw was in talks to star last I saw. She'd probably do well in the role.
