Alright, MobLand fans, let's talk about the show that's got us all glued to our screens. Season 1 of this gritty Paramount+ crime drama was a wild ride—think Peaky Blinders meets The Sopranos with a splash of Guy Ritchie flair. With 26 million viewers hooked and a renewal locked in, we're all itching for MobLand Season 2. So, what do we know about the release date, cast, and plot? Let's dive into the details, straight from the latest buzz and a few sneaky hints from the cast and crew. MobLand Season 2 Release Date Speculation
No official release date yet, but let's piece together the clues. Season 1 filmed from November 2024 to March 2025 and hit screens by March 30, 2025—crazy fast, right? If the team keeps that pace, we could see Season 2 as early as spring 2026, maybe even late summer. But coordinating A-listers like Tom Hardy, Pierce Brosnan, and Helen Mirren takes time, so some folks are betting on early 2027. Posts on X are split, with some fans hoping for a quick turnaround and others expecting a wait for that cinematic polish. Either way, we are keeping our fingers crossed for sooner rather than later. MobLand Season 2 Cast: Who's Returning?
The MobLand Season 2 cast is expected to feature most of the surviving characters from Season 1, with the possibility of new faces joining the fray. While no official casting announcements have been made, producer David Glasser has hinted that 'everybody's coming back… one big family.' Here's a look at the major players likely to return: Tom Hardy as Harry Da Souza : The street-smart fixer for the Harrigan family survived a dramatic stabbing in the Season 1 finale, and writer Jez Butterworth has confirmed Harry's return, stating, 'We love Harry. We love Tom.' Expect Hardy to remain at the heart of the action.
Pierce Brosnan as Conrad Harrigan : The Harrigan patriarch, imprisoned at the end of Season 1, is set to be freed thanks to Harry and Kevin's efforts. Brosnan has expressed enthusiasm for reprising his role.
Helen Mirren as Maeve Harrigan : The fierce matriarch, also behind bars at the end of Season 1, is expected to return as a central figure in the family's power struggles.
Paddy Considine as Kevin Harrigan : Conrad and Maeve's son, who's plotting a takeover, will likely drive much of the drama in Season 2.
Anson Boon as Eddie Harrigan : The young Harrigan, reeling from the revelation that Conrad is his father, not his grandfather, is set for a complex arc.
Joanne Froggatt as Jan Da Souza : Harry's wife, who stabbed him in a moment of tension, may explore reconciliation or further conflict. Froggatt has hinted at Jan's deep love for Harry, suggesting an emotional storyline.
Mandeep Dhillon as Seraphina Harrigan : Conrad's daughter is expected to return, continuing her role in the family's dynamics.
Lara Pulver as Bella Harrigan : Kevin's wife, united with him in their ambitions, will likely play a key part in Season 2.
Jasmine Jobson as Zosia : Harry's right-hand woman is another likely returnee, bringing her loyalty and grit to the table.
Janet McTeer as Kat McAllister: The mysterious gangster introduced in Season 1 could become a major player in the upcoming season.
Characters like Richie Stevenson (Geoff Bell), Brendan (Daniel Betts), and O'Hara (Lisa Dwan) met their end in Season 1, but they could appear in flashbacks. New characters are also expected, especially if the show expands internationally, as teased by Tom Hardy. MobLand Season 2 Plot: What to Expect
Warning: Spoilers for Season 1 ahead!
The Season 1 finale, 'The Beast in Me,' wrapped up the bloody feud between the Harrigans and the Stevensons, with Harry orchestrating a plan to eliminate Richie Stevenson and his crew. However, the victory came at a cost: Conrad and Maeve were imprisoned due to a scheme by Alice (Emily Barber) and Colin Tattersall (Toby Jones), though evidence secured by Harry and Kevin could secure their release. Meanwhile, Harry's near-fatal stabbing by his wife Jan and Eddie's discovery that Conrad is his father set the stage for intense family drama.
Season 2 is likely to focus on the fallout within the Harrigan family. Kevin's ambitions to seize control could spark a power struggle, especially with Conrad and Maeve's return. Eddie's shifting loyalties, particularly his strained relationship with Maeve after learning she's not his grandmother, will add another layer of tension. Harry's recovery and his dynamic with Jan will also be a key focus, with potential for reconciliation or further betrayal.
Tom Hardy has teased an international expansion for the series, hinting at exploring 'the control of drugs, ammunition, weapons, and people' across Europe, Africa, and beyond. This could introduce new crime families and global stakes, taking MobLand beyond its London setting. The arrival of Kat McAllister in Season 1 also suggests new enemies or alliances on the horizon.

Paramount, Skydance expected to close deal on Aug. 7

Paramount and Skydance announced Friday that, with the Trump administration's approval, the highly anticipated merger between the entertainment giants is expected to take place next month. The Aug. 7 date, unveiled in a press release, comes after the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) on Thursday allowed Skydance's acquisition of Paramount to move forward after the merger was first proposed last year. FCC Chair Brendan Carr in announcing the decision said he welcomed Skydance's commitment to remaining 'unbiased' in its journalism and willingness to promote 'a diversity of viewpoints across the political and ideological spectrum.' 'Americans no longer trust the legacy national news media to report fully, accurately, and fairly,' Carr added. 'It is time for a change.' The move caps off months of turmoil between Paramount Global, the parent company of CBS, and President Trump. Trump sued CBS's '60 Minutes' last year after he argued an interview it aired with former Vice President Harris was altered in her favor during the 2024 presidential election cycle. While the company fought the claims, including releasing a full transcript from the episode, it ultimately settled with the administration for $16 million. Those funds are set to go to Trump's eventual presidential library. The news outlet has also faced criticism in recent days after CBS made the decision to sunset 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert' next May, after more than 30 years on air. Paramount said the move was based on finances, but critics have argued the settlement and Skydance deal were likely involved — and bribery allegations have been floated. Comedian Stephen Colbert, who has hosted the show since 2015, has been openly critical of the merger. Colbert blasted the network earlier this week for choosing to axe the show and thanked those who have reached out in support, including Democrats, press freedom advocates and many of his late-night counterparts. He added that 'one key mistake' the network made when moving forward with the plan is that 'they left me alive.' Colbert also lashed out at Trump after the president said in a post online that he 'absolutely' loved that the comedian was getting 'fired.' 'How dare you, sir,' the host responded. 'Would an untalented man be able to compose the following satirical witticism: 'Go f‑‑‑ yourself.'' Under the terms of the $8 billion merger, the company will become 'New Paramount' and will be led by Trump-ally and billionaire David Ellison, the son of tech tycoon and Oracle founder Larry Ellison.

Freedom of the Press Foundation Calls BS on Paramount-Trump Settlement After Merger Approval: ‘Shakedown Money'

"[Brendan] Carr can't justify his actions ... because the FCC meddling in broadcasters' content is illegal too," the foundation's director of advocacy says The Freedom of the Press Foundation expressed discontent following the approval of the Paramount-Skydance merger, calling out Federal Communications Commission chairman Brendan Carr for 'meddling in broadcasters' content.' The FPF has been vocal about the risk that Paramount's $16 million settlement over the '60 Minutes' interview with former Vice President Kamala Harris poses to press freedom, criticizing the media titan for cowering to President Donald Trump. In a statement to TheWrap Friday, a spokesperson for the foundation stated that they could hardly fathom that anyone could believe Paramount's seemingly selfless claims over its reasons for the settlement.

'And if such people exist, Donald Trump has a real estate degree to sell them.' The foundation previously called Paramount's settlement a 'spineless decision.' After 251 days, the FCC approved Paramount and Skydance Media's $8 billion merger by a vote of 2-1 along party lines Thursday. The approval came after Skydance agreed to bring on an ombudsman at CBS to review complaints of bias and to eliminate all DEI initiatives for Paramount at large. 'If there was ever any doubt, Brendan Carr just extinguished it by approving the merger just days after Trump announce he'd received Paramount's shakedown money,' the statement continued. 'What's worse, Carr can't justify his actions by pointing to Skydance's promise to appoint a bias ombudsman, because the FCC meddling in broadcasters' content is illegal too.' The FCC does not have permission to censor or bar broadcasters from platforming content from any point of view. Engaging in censorship would infringe the media' First Amendment right to freedom of the press. The press freedom advocacy group filed a shareholder information demand back in May and said in early July that it intended to explore further legal action to hold Paramount's board accountable for what it sees as a 'capitulation' to Trump that violates shareholders' interests and the First Amendment. 'Each time a company cowers and surrenders to Trump's demands it only emboldens him to do it again. It will be remembered as one of the most shameful capitulations by the press to a president in history,' Stern said in a statement to TheWrap July 2. The Paramount-Skydance merger approval comes just one week after CBS canceled 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert' after he called his network's $16 million settlement a 'big fat bribe.' Under the new merger, Skydance is set to acquire controlling shareholder Shari Redstone's holding company National Amusements, which controls 77.4% of the Paramount Class A common stock outstanding and approximately 9.5% of the overall equity of the company, before merging with the Hollywood studio. The Redstone family will finally relinquish control of the media giant that they have owned since 1994 to the Ellison family and Gerry Cardinale's RedBird Capital Partners.

It's Stephen Colbert's turn to let Paramount have it over Trump settlement

Looks like the Fielder Method of being really mean to Paramount has gained another disciple. Stephen Colbert was the latest Paramount employee to take shots at the parent company from one of its very own networks. Returning from a short break (with a mustache!), Colbert said on The Late Show that Paramount (which owns his network, CBS) had settled over Trump's 'nuisance' lawsuit in what essentially amounted to a 'big fat bribe.' 'As someone who has always been a proud employee of this network, I am offended and I don't know if anything will ever repair my trust in this company,' he continued. 'But just taking a stab at it, I'd say $16 million would help.' It's a line of criticism we've now heard a few times from various Paramount employees. In April, months before the final settlement amount was reached, 60 Minutes correspondent Scott Pelley laid bare the stakes of the deal, saying on-air, 'Our parent company, Paramount, is trying to complete a merger. The Trump administration must approve it. Paramount began to supervise our content in new ways.' Last week, Jon Stewart also broke down the deal with former 60 Minutes correspondent Steve Kroft, who characterized it as a 'shakedown' and 'a tribute to the king.' Colbert, however, also introduced a relatively new wrinkle to the whole mess. 'Some of the TV typers out there are blogging that once Skydance gets CBS, the new owners' desire to please Trump could 'put pressure on late night host and frequent Trump critic Stephen Colbert,'' citing a Puck News article from earlier this month. 'But how are they going to put pressure on Stephen Colbert if they can't find him,' the host continued, pointing to his new mustache. It's a funny bit, but does speak to a larger anxiety. TheWrap suggests that when and if the Paramount-Skydance deal closes, new owners Larry and David Ellison may not be so keen on keeping outspoken figures like Colbert and Stewart around. Cutting either of their shows would likely 'trigger a public-relations storm' for the already beleaguered company, in TheWrap's estimation, but then again, so would paying the president $16 million to settle a frivolous lawsuit. At least the hosts have proven that if they are made to go, they won't go quietly. You can watch Colbert's monologue below: More from A.V.
