The Gentlemen Season 2: New Trailer, Season 3 Already Greenlit

The Gentlemen returns on Netflix on September 3, 2026 with a second eight-episode season. Theo James and Kaya Scodelario reprise their roles as Eddie Horniman and Susie Glass, now spearheading the international expansion of their criminal empire. A few days before this release, Netflix has already officially renewed Guy Ritchie's series for a third season.

The latest trailer confirms the broader scope teased for the second season of The Gentlemen. Eddie is no longer the reluctant aristocrat we met at the start of the series: he now appears fully invested in the criminal underworld and is pursuing the group's activities beyond the United Kingdom.

Eddie and Susie expand their empire to the Italian lakes

Season 2 picks up a year after Eddie and Susie joined the criminal empire run by Bobby Glass. Now tasked with expanding the group's overseas operations, they increasingly leave behind the English countryside for the Italian lakes.

This expansion is being undermined by Bobby's increasingly unpredictable moves. Eddie and Susie must decide whether to intervene directly in steering the empire or risk losing what they've built. According to Matthew Read, the showrunner and executive producer, this second season will particularly test the relationship between Eddie and Bobby Glass as Eddie's ambitions grow.

Who’s in the cast for The Gentlemen season 2?

Theo James, Kaya Scodelario and Daniel Ings return as Eddie, Susie and Freddy. Ray Winstone comes back as Bobby Glass, alongside Joely Richardson, Vinnie Jones, Giancarlo Esposito, Jasmine Blackborow, Michael Vu, Harry Goodwins, Ruby Sear and Pearce Quigley.

The season also features Hugh Bonneville, Benjamin Clementine, Benedetta Porcaroli, Michele Morrone, Sergio Castellitto, Amra Mallassi and Tyler Conti. The British boxer Chris Eubank Jr. and host Maya Jama also appear in these new episodes.

Guy Ritchie is back behind the camera as director, co-writer, and executive producer. He shares writing duties with Matthew Read, while Eran Creevy also joins the directing team. All eight episodes of season 2 will drop on Netflix on the same day.

The Gentlemen has already been renewed for a third season

Even before the second season even dropped, Netflix confirmed that The Gentlemen would return for a third season. The news was made official on August 24, 2026, roughly ten days before the new episodes hit streaming.

Guy Ritchie returns for a third season and will continue to expand the crime universe of the series. Netflix, however, has yet to reveal any plot details, cast, filming schedule, or air date. The platform simply presents this continuation as a new extension of a universe whose ambition and scale have grown.

A TV series spin-off from a Guy Ritchie film

The Gentlemen is a British action-crime series with a sharp edge of black comedy, created by Guy Ritchie and Matthew Read. Debuting on Netflix on March 7, 2024, it unfolds within the universe of the film The Gentlemen, directed by Guy Ritchie and released in 2020, starring Matthew McConaughey, Hugh Grant, and Charlie Hunnam.

The series, however, does not reuse the characters from the feature film. It follows Eddie Horniman, a British aristocrat who inherits the family estate after his father's death and discovers that his lands hide a major cannabis trafficking operation run by the Glass family.

At first determined to free his family from the organization, Eddie starts playing the criminals at their own game. His partnership with Susie Glass gradually reveals his knack for power, money, and strategy, until he becomes a true power player in this empire.

This serialized format lets Guy Ritchie extend his exploration of British organized crime and the class dynamics already at play in the film. The series is produced by Moonage Pictures, ITV Studios and Miramax Television for Netflix.
