The Gentlemen is back, and the criminal underbelly of London’s elite is about to get even messier. Netflix has officially confirmed that Season 2 of the hit Guy Ritchie series will premiere sometime in 2026, following the explosive success of the first season that dropped in March 2024. The show, an expansion of Ritchie’s 2019 film of the same name, dives deeper into the world of aristocratic weed farms, ruthless power plays, and dark humor that made the original a binge-worthy sensation.
Picking up roughly one year after the events of Season 1, Eddie Horniman (Theo James) and Susie Glass (Kaya Scodelario) have solidified their uneasy alliance while expanding Bobby Glass’s (Ray Winstone) criminal operations overseas. But ambition comes at a price. Bobby’s increasingly erratic decisions threaten to unravel everything they’ve built, forcing Eddie and Susie to confront tough choices: intervene and risk it all, or watch their empire crumble. Expect more high-stakes betrayals, absurd twists, and the signature Ritchie flair—quick cuts, witty banter, and over-the-top violence wrapped in British sophistication.
The core trio returns stronger than ever. Theo James reprises his role as the reluctant duke-turned-gangster Eddie, whose military background and moral compass keep clashing with the underworld he’s now neck-deep in. Kaya Scodelario is back as the sharp, no-nonsense Susie, navigating family loyalties and her own ambitions. Daniel Ings returns as the chaotic Freddy Horniman, whose bumbling antics and bad decisions continue to complicate his brother’s schemes.
Many familiar faces from Season 1 are reprising their roles, including Joely Richardson as Lady Sabrina, Vinnie Jones in his tough-guy glory, Jasmine Blackborow, Michael Vu, Harry Goodwins, Ruby Sear, Pearce Quigley, and the ever-intimidating Giancarlo Esposito. Ray Winstone’s Bobby Glass remains a central force, his prison-bound influence still pulling strings from afar.
But here’s where things get interesting—the season introduces a wave of fresh talent to shake up the dynamics. New additions include Hugh Bonneville (known for his aristocratic turns), Benjamin Clementine, Benedetta Porcaroli, Michele Morrone, Sergio Castellitto, Amra Mallassi, Tyler Conti, British boxer Chris Eubank Jr., and media personality Maya Jama. These newcomers are set to bring new rivalries, alliances, and chaos to the aristocratic crime world, expanding the scope beyond the Horniman estate.
Guy Ritchie himself is back co-writing and directing episodes, with Eran Creevy returning behind the camera and newcomer Nick Rowland joining the roster. The eight-episode run promises to ramp up the stakes, blending more international intrigue with the eccentric British humor fans loved in Season 1.
While no exact premiere date has been locked in, Netflix has positioned The Gentlemen Season 2 as a major 2026 highlight. With filming wrapped late last year, anticipation is building for another round of stylish mayhem. If Season 1 hooked you with its mix of class satire and gangster grit, Season 2 looks ready to deliver even bigger shocks and laughs. Get ready—London’s high society is about to collide with the underworld like never before.
