‘Industry' Creators on How Their Storytelling and Characters Have Evolved (in Bleepable Ways) and HBO's 'Fantastic Notes'
The traders of Pierpoint were in the London spotlight on Thursday as Industry co-creators Mickey Down and Konrad Kay shared some anecdotes and insights into their hit drama at the inaugural SXSW London during one of Thursday's Screen Keynote sessions. 'We were in development hell on Industry for three years,' Down recalled. 'We wrote the first episode like 60 times.' More from The Hollywood Reporter Disney+ Inks New Deal to Bundle With Crave, TSN in Canada New Lena Dunham, Sarah Snook Shows Touted as Universal U.K. TV Labels Execs Talk Sector Cuts Nickelodeon Acquires Animated 'Mr. Crocodile' Series, Based on French Children's Book He lauded HBO for ordering the show and allowing the creators to let the series evolve over time. 'It started off as a slice-of-life London thing,' Down shared. 'And that kind of unlocked the show.' Over time, the series and its characters have grown up, the duo highlighted. Down drew laughs, highlighting how Harry Lawtey's character Robert has gone from a 'two-dimensional fuckboy' to the 'emotional heartbeat' of Industry. Kay shared insight on the growth in terms of storytelling that the creative duo went through. He told the audience that 'we were interested in, but not confident enough in expanding the horizon of the trading floor to actually say something, maybe a little bit more about capitalism and Britain.' But over time, 'we started to look at newspapers, politics, the intersection of all that stuff in season three,' he noted. 'So when we came back for season four, we wanted to do an actual proper newspaper storyline, or an actual political storyline. We don't have to wed ourselves necessarily to the financial story. It takes us 18 months to make eight hours of TV. It's about how we are going to keep ourselves creatively engaged. And the truth is, we've got older, we become more interested in this stuff, it's just a natural broadening of the canvas to keep me and him engaged.' 'My and Mickey's creative impulse really is a negative one,' said Kay. 'That was what we really galvanized over as a creative duo, looking at stuff that we didn't like rather than what we like.' In their actions with HBO early on, 'we would be a little bit sharp-elbowed about the way we interacted with that stuff,' he also shared. 'And honestly, their notes are always fantastic, and they continue to be fantastic. And even if we don't end up doing one of their notes, it makes us interrogate something, or it makes us look at something two steps back. I think we've just become, naturally, a little bit more collaborative, and that comes from experience.' HBO renewed the darkly comic investment-banking drama, starring Marisa Abela, Harry Lawtey and Ken Leung, among others, for a fourth season in September. Season 3 featured their characters making a big bet on a green tech energy company led by a member of the British peerage, portrayed by Kit Harington, who told THR he's been a long-time fan of showrunner duo met as students at Oxford and went on to work in the finance world depicted in Industry.

How to Watch WWDC 2025: iOS 26, macOS Tahoe and other big announcements from Apple
Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2025 is just a few days away, and anticipation is building over what the tech giant has in store. Traditionally, it has been a stage for major software reveals, and the occasional hardware surprise, and this year looks no different. All eyes are expected to be on iOS 26, which is tipped to be the headline announcement, alongside new AI-driven capabilities under the banner of Apple Intelligence. On the hardware front, there's growing speculation that Apple could tease the iPhone 17 Air, a sleek new addition to its flagship before diving into what Apple might unveil, here's how you can tune in and watch the WWDC 2025 keynote 2025: How to watch? Apple is gearing up for a jam-packed WWDC 2025, with a strong line-up that includes its much-awaited Keynote address and the Platforms State of the Union session. As per the official schedule, the Keynote will kick off at 10 AM PDT (that's 10.30 PM IST) on 9 June. This will be followed by the Platforms State of the Union at 1 PM PDT (1.30 AM IST), which promises a more technical dive into what's new for developers. The event will be livestreamed globally and can be watched via Apple's official website, the Apple TV app, or the company's YouTube 2025: What to expect? advertisementiOS 26, a change of name: Apple is expected to make a surprising leap in its operating system versioning at WWDC 2025, skipping the expected iOS 19 update in favour of iOS 26. This change would align the iOS version numbers with the calendar year, setting a precedent for future releases such as iOS 27, 28, and beyond. This bold move hints at a refreshed approach to Apple's software evolution.A fresh, unified look across devices: Major aesthetic changes are also on the cards, with Apple anticipated to introduce a new, consistent design language across all its devices. Early reports suggest the redesign will take cues from the Vision Pro's operating system, which is built for mixed reality. How this futuristic design will translate to traditional devices like iPhones, iPads, and Apple Watches remains to be seen, but a cohesive and modern interface is expected to be at the heart of the update.A new gaming app: Apple seems poised to reinvent its social gaming experience. The decade-old Game Center may be retired and replaced by a brand-new, pre-installed gaming app that will be available on iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV. This new initiative points to Apple's renewed ambition to foster gaming communities and enhance social engagement within its integration: Developers could soon gain access to a powerful new toolkit that integrates Apple's proprietary large language models into third-party apps. This move aims to expand AI capabilities on the iPhone, enhancing app functionality. The announcement comes after initial Apple Intelligence features, such as notification summaries, faced criticism for inaccuracies. The new development kit may help improve AI's usefulness and reliability across surprises still possible: Though 2025 has already brought new MacBook Air M4, iPad Air M3, and iPhone 16e models, Apple may still have some hardware announcements up its sleeve. A refreshed Mac Pro, which holds particular significance for developers, could be unveiled. There's also quiet speculation about the iPhone 17 Air, rumoured to be the slimmest iPhone yet. While a full launch seems unlikely, Apple might offer a brief teaser during the event. Additionally, a sneak peek of the long-rumoured Apple smart glasses could make an appearance, following the tradition of hardware reveals at past WWDCs.

This year, Apple is expected to focus less on shiny new features and more on visual glow-up. At the event, iOS 19 is expected to garner the maximum eyeballs due to reports that it will be 'one of the most dramatic software overhauls' in Apple's history, according to Bloomberg. The latest update would likely have a new interface designed to provide Apple's various products - including iPhone, iPad, Mac, etc - a consistent appearance. Drawing inspiration from the visionOS, Apple is also expected to redesign the appearance of icons, menus and apps.

Notably, iOS 26 is expected to bring a handful of practical upgrades, including Simplified WiFi sharing across Apple devices. On the AI front, Apple is expected to share a few updates. At WWDC, it may announce support for other AI chatbots. Apple's health app could also soon incorporate AI technology, which could include a health chatbot and generative AI insights that provide personalised health-related suggestions based on user data. Moreover, other apps, such as Messages, may receive enhancements with AI capabilities, including a translation feature and polls that offer AI-generative suggestions. Reports suggest Apple is also developing a dedicated gaming app that will replace the ageing Game Centre app. The app could include access to Apple Arcade's subscription-based game store, plus other gaming features like leaderboards, recommendations, and ways to challenge your friends. It could also integrate with iMessage or FaceTime for remote gaming, per TechCrunch. Apart from software changes, Apple could also bring a live-translate language feature to its AirPods wireless Bluetooth earbuds, allowing real-time translation during conversations. AirPods may also get new head gestures to complement today's ability to either nod or shake your head to respond to incoming calls or messages. Additionally, AirPods may get features to auto-pause music after you fall asleep, a way to trigger the camera via Camera Control with a touch, a studio-quality mic mode, and an improved pairing experience in shared AirPods. This year's WWDC will not feature new hardware. However, the software updates will pave the way for new devices expected later in the fall.
