Top Boy Season 6: Release date speculation, cast and plot details – Everything we know so far

Business Upturn22-04-2025
Fans of the gritty British crime drama Top Boy are eagerly awaiting news about a potential Season 6. After the explosive finale of Season 5, which Netflix branded as the final chapter, speculation is rife about whether the Summerhouse estate will return to our screens. In this article, we dive into the latest updates on Top Boy Season 6, including release date rumors, potential cast, and possible plot directions.
Top Boy Season 6 Release Date Speculation

Since Top Boy Season 6 has not been greenlit, there is no official release date. If Netflix were to renew the series, production timelines suggest a release could be possible in late 2025 or 2026, based on the two-year gap between Seasons 4 and 5. For comparison, Season 5 premiered on September 7, 2023. Any new season or spin-off would likely follow a similar production schedule, requiring at least 18–24 months for filming and post-production.
Potential Cast for Top Boy Season 6
If Top Boy Season 6 were to happen, the cast would likely look different due to the conclusive endings for Dushane and Sully in Season 5. Both characters met tragic fates, making it improbable for Ashley Walters and Kane Robinson to return as leads. However, the show's ensemble cast offers plenty of opportunities for returning characters or new faces. Potential cast members could include:
Jasmine Jobson as Jaq
Araloyin Oshunremi as Stefan
Adwoa Aboah as Becks
Dudley O'Shaughnessy as Si
New Characters: Netflix could introduce a fresh cast, potentially set in a different London borough, to carry forward the Top Boy themes of crime and survival.
Top Boy Season 6 Plot Speculation
Season 5 wrapped up the central arcs of Dushane and Sully but left several questions unanswered, providing potential plot points for Season 6 or a spin-off. The biggest mystery is the identity of Sully's shooter, which could serve as a catalyst for a new storyline. Other possible plot directions include:
Jaq's Redemption: After going on the run, Jaq could return to confront her past and seek redemption, potentially clashing with new gang leaders.
Stefan's Rise: Stefan, driven by grief over Jamie's death, might step into a more prominent role in the Summerhouse gang, exploring themes of loyalty and revenge.
New Power Struggles: With Dushane and Sully gone, new characters could vie for control of the estate, introducing fresh conflicts and alliances.

3 underrated Netflix movies you should watch this weekend (August 8-10)

When Netflix introduced streaming, it fundamentally changed the way we watch everything. And, while streaming has come with plenty of perks, it's also given us more choices about what we can watch, which necessarily leaves us wondering what we should spend time watching. If you've browsed Netflix for something worthy of your time and decided that you should go to bed instead, you're not alone. We've pulled together a list of three underrated movies on Netflix that are all worth your time. Recommended Videos We also have guides to the best new movies to stream, the best movies on Netflix, the best movies on Hulu, and the best movies on Amazon Prime Video. They Cloned Tyrone (2023) An original sci-fi movie with a terrific cast that didn't get the eyeballs it deserved, They Cloned Tyrone follows three people tied together by circumstance who begin to uncover a sinister government conspiracy. The movie's premise — a man realizes that he's been cloned — is super stylish and the perfect combination of absurd and serious. They Cloned Tyrone is anchored by its three central performances and a particular reminder of how skilled Jamie Foxx and John Boyega both are when they have the right material. You can watch They Cloned Tyrone on Netflix. The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar (2023) Generally speaking, it's hard to describe anything that Wes Anderson directed as underrated. The writer/director is hugely popular among film fans, and his movies usually debut to critical acclaim. Unfortunately, The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar, as well as three other Roald Dahl short stories that he adapted for Netflix in 2023, did not receive the attention they deserve. This one tells the story of a billionaire who becomes enthralled by his desire to acquire a particular, rare skill and devotes his life to it. Henry Sugar is funny, moving, and among the most stylish things that Anderson has ever directed. Benedict Cumberbatch is the perfect centerpiece for this odd tale. You can watch The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar on Netflix. The Color Purple (2023) An adaptation of the Alice Walker novel and 1985 film of the same name, this version of The Color Purple is a musical and a fascinating improvement on the original. It follows Celie, an introverted housewife in the Deep South who overcomes an abusive husband and a decades-long separation from her sister to find the life that she wants. Featuring stylish musical numbers, great songs, and an enduring central story, The Color Purple also features several incredible performances, including ones from Taraji P. Henson and Danielle Brooks that deserved more attention. You can watch The Color Purple on Netflix.

Ms. Rachel reveals which celebrity she accidentally 'ghosted' on Instagram

Even Ms. Rachel isn't immune to the occasional social media faux pas. Speaking on the Aug. 7 episode of the "Not Gonna Lie with Kylie Kelce" podcast, the 42-year-old YouTube sensation and mom of two — whose real name is Rachel Griffin Accurso — admitted to accidentally ignoring an A-list star who'd reached out to her on Instagram. Describing herself as "an elder millennial," Accurso told Kelce: "I'm not amazing with Instagram, so I didn't know about the 'requests' and 'top requests.' So I ghosted some people for, like, months." She continued: "I'm not a cool person who knows a lot about celebrities, so when I saw a '@badgalriri,' I was like, 'This person has so many followers.' And then I was like, 'This is such a cute little profile picture because it's a drawing.'" She had "no idea" the account belonged to the Grammy-winning "Umbrella" singer Rihanna, who's also a mom to two kids. "I asked people who were around — I was like, 'Do you know who this is?' And then I realized it was Rihanna," Accurso said. "I was like, 'Wow.' That was crazy." Accurso, known for her signature headband, overalls, and higher-pitched voice that engages little ones, is a go-to resource for many parents of young children. She and her unparalleled cheery demeanor started rising to fame in 2020 with her "Song for Littles" YouTube videos, which teach toddlers letters, shapes, colors, and nursery rhymes. The concept has evolved into a bona fide Ms. Rachel empire for the former teacher: the YouTube channel amassed at least 16 million subscribers and boasts videos that regularly pull in hundreds of millions of views, a Netflix streaming deal, several books, and a toy line. 'We are so in love:' Ms. Rachel welcomes baby No. 2, a girl named Susannah Ms. Rachel's daughter is 'a tough audience' Despite being a tried-and-true parenting guide for many, Accurso also experiences her parenting struggles. "I was staring at (daughter Susannah). She was around three months, and we're staring at each other. ... She's not sleeping, and she's just, like, looking at me,' Accurso told Kelce. "And I was like, 'This is my time to shine. I'm Ms. Rachel. It's time for a song.' And then I couldn't think of any! ... I went blank." "She's a tough audience sometimes," she admitted of her second-born child.
