Netflix has officially announced the start of production on season two of Guy Ritchie’s series The Gentlemen, as well as announcing the returning and new cast members for the second season of the crime caper series.
Joining the returning Theo James, Kaya Scodelario, Daniel Ings, Ray Winstone, Joely Richardson, Vinnie Jones, Jasmine Blackborrow, Michael Vu, Harry Goodwins, Ruby Sear, Pearce Quigley and Giancarlo Esposito for the second season are Hugh Bonneville (The Agency), Benjamin Clementine (Dune), Benedetta Porcaroli (Amanda), Michele Morrone (Another Simple Favor), Sergio Castellito (Conclave), Amra Mallassi (Dune: Part Two), Tyler Conti (Tell Me Everything) and Maya Jama.
“I am delighted to return to set for season two of The Gentlemen”, said Ritchie, This chapter sees a deliberate expansion, both geographically and thematically, as we journey from the English countryside to the Italian lakes. Eddie and Susie find themselves navigating an increasingly volatile empire as they’re besieged on all fronts by an influx of enigmatic new players. The stakes are heightened, the power dynamics are more precarious, and I’m thrilled to be collaborating once again with this exceptional cast and crew.”
The synopsis for season two reads: “It’s been one year since Eddie and Susie joined forces to work together in Bobby’s criminal empire overseas. As they drive to expand their enterprise, the decisions Bobby is making seem to be increasingly unsound. Now Eddie and Susie must decide whether to take action or risk losing it all, but unfettered ambition never ends well…”
The first season of The Gentlemen is streaming now on Netflix.
