The Gentlemen Season 2 premieres on Netflix with international expansion

The second season of Guy Ritchie’s Netflix crime series, ‘The Gentlemen’, has premiered, expanding the narrative from the British countryside to Italy. The new season follows Eddie Horniman (Theo James) and Susie Glass (Kaya Scodelario) as they attempt to scale their clandestine cannabis empire internationally, navigating complex power struggles with the Italian mafia and figures like Marco Moretti.

Critics have noted a shift in tone, describing the new episodes as “deeper and darker” while maintaining the signature humor and fast-paced style of Ritchie. The season features eight episodes and introduces new cast members, including Hugh Bonneville and Sergio Castellitto. Plot developments include high-stakes conflicts involving the Glass family and the evolving, often volatile, relationship between the protagonists.

Following the success of the first season, which garnered significant viewership, Netflix has already renewed the series for a third season.
