Everything you need to know about The Gentlemen season 2 – release date, cast, plot, filming updates, and more
Netflix has officially announced that filming is underway for Season 2 of The Gentlemen, the crime drama series created by filmmaker Guy Ritchie. Following the critical success of Season 1, which premiered in 2024 and was praised as one of Ritchie's finest works, the new season promises to expand the story's scope and tension. Guy Ritchie returns as creator, writer (alongside Matthew Read), and director, working with co-director Eran Creevy. Season 2 will continue the story of Eddie Horniman and Susie Glass, portrayed by Theo James and Kaya Scodelario, respectively. The returning cast includes Daniel Ings, Ray Winstone, Joely Richardson, Vinnie Jones, and more. Set one year after Eddie and Susie allied with Bobby Glass's international criminal network, the new season sees the duo trying to grow their empire amid Bobby's increasingly unstable leadership. This forces them into a difficult position—either take bold action or risk losing everything they've built. In a Netflix press release, Ritchie shared that the second season would 'deliberately expand both geographically and thematically,' moving between the English countryside and the Italian lakes. 'The stakes are heightened, the power dynamics are more precarious, and I'm thrilled to be collaborating once again with this exceptional cast and crew,' he added. Alongside the returning ensemble, the new season brings in high-profile talent including Hugh Bonneville, Benjamin Clementine, Benedetta Porcaroli, Michele Morrone, and Giancarlo Esposito, among others. The Gentlemen Season 2 is currently in production in the UK and will stream exclusively on Netflix. Fans can expect the same blend of dark humor, high-stakes crime drama, and Ritchie's signature stylized storytelling. Further updates are expected as filming progresses.

Scotland star Jamie Ritchie sure he ‘did all he could' to secure Lions selection
The 28-year-old Edinburgh forward was disappointed not to be included in Andy Farrell's squad for the summer tour of Australia after bouncing back strongly this season from a tough start to 2024 when he lost the Scotland captaincy. Speaking for the first time since his Lions snub three weeks ago, Ritchie told the BBC's Scotland Rugby Podcast: 'Personally, I feel like I'd done all I could in terms of how I performed and stuff, so I was comfortable with that. 'At the end of the day, it's down to someone's opinion and decision-making and what they feel they need in their squad. At that point, it's outside of my control. For 2021, I feel like I was further away than I was this year, but I was more upset then. 'I'm a bit more mature now in terms of how I react to these things. Obviously, it would have been nice to have that moment, but I'm comfortable with the performances that I've put in to put myself in the mix. I said this to my wife because she was quite upset when we watched it together. 'I said to her, if you look at the position we were in a year ago after Six Nations, where it hadn't gone the way I wanted to in terms of selection and missing out on the captaincy and humming and hawing about whether or not I was going to go on the summer tour, if we'd said we'd be sitting here at the Lions announcement day, feeling like we were in with a real shout and then disappointed when it didn't happen, we would absolutely have taken it. 'That's the perspective that I'm taking on at the moment. I felt like I did all I could. The call didn't come, and that's OK.' Asked if he had been given any indication that he might be on a standby list, Ritchie said: 'I spoke to JD (Lions and Scotland coach John Dalziel) afterwards around some of the thinkings around selection. 'I've not heard about anything official, but I'm just trying to stay fit and concentrating on playing well for Edinburgh.' Scotland co-captain Rory Darge was in similarly philosophical mood to Ritchie over his own Lions snub, with the 25-year-old Glasgow flanker intent on using it as a 'motivator' to earn future inclusion. 'I know how much I put into this game and how much I put into preparing and going out and playing and putting my body through, so why should other people get to experience that?' said Darge, speaking on the same podcast. 'And I'm not saying that from a negative point of view, it's purely a positive point of view. 'I was delighted for the guys that are involved and it just was a bit of a motivator for me, really, and something to aspire to. 'You have to have that initial bit where you are gutted and you're like, 'why can't I be involved in that?' But then, really quickly you're able to be like, that's something to aspire to, that's something to hopefully one day be a part of.'
