Gentlemen Season 2: Release date speculation, cast and plot details – Everything we know so far
Guy Ritchie's The Gentlemen was a proper banger when it crashed onto Netflix in March 2024, serving up a heady mix of posh Brits, dodgy deals, and razor-sharp banter. The series, spun off from Ritchie's 2019 flick, had viewers hooked, and Netflix didn't waste time giving Season 2 the green light. With cameras rolling, here's the lowdown on when we might see The Gentlemen Season 2, who's strutting back and what kind of chaos Eddie Horniman's getting into next. When Could The Gentlemen Season 2 Hit Netflix?
Netflix hasn't slapped an official release date on The Gentlemen Season 2 yet, but we've got enough crumbs to make an educated guess. Filming started in June 2025 in the UK, hot on the heels of the renewal news in August 2024. Season 1 took about seven months to film (November 2022 to June 2023) and dropped nine months later in March 2024. If the team keeps a similar pace, we're looking at a release sometime around mid-2026—think June or July, maybe. Gentlemen Season 2 Expected Cast
Season 2 will bring back the core players who made The Gentlemen such a wild ride, alongside some fresh faces to stir the pot. Netflix has confirmed the return of: Theo James as Eddie Horniman, the reluctant duke turned criminal mastermind, juggling his aristocratic roots with the gritty weed business.
Kaya Scodelario as Susie Glass, the sharp, no-nonsense boss of her dad's cannabis empire, balancing loyalty and ambition.
Daniel Ings as Freddy Horniman, Eddie's chaotic, drug-fueled brother, always one bad decision away from disaster.
Ray Winstone as Bobby Glass, the incarcerated crime lord pulling strings from behind bars.
Joely Richardson as Lady Sabrina, the Horniman matriarch trying to keep her family above water.
Vinnie Jones as Geoff Seacombe, the manor's steadfast gamekeeper with a knack for staying calm under pressure.
Giancarlo Esposito as Stanley Johnston, the cunning American mogul who's down but not out after Season 1's tax evasion bust.
Supporting players like Jasmine Blackborow (Charly Horniman), Michael Vu (Jimmy Chang), Harry Goodwins (Jack), and Pearce Quigley (Gospel John) are also set to return, keeping the ensemble tight. Potential Plot Details for The Gentlemen Season 2
The Gentlemen Season 2 will pick up one year after the events of Season 1, with Eddie and Susie now running Bobby Glass's criminal empire together. The first season ended with Eddie embracing his role in the weed business after outmaneuvering rivals like Stanley Johnston, who was arrested for tax evasion, and eliminating threats like Henry Collins. Season 2 will explore the consequences of their partnership and the challenges of expanding their operation.
According to Netflix, the new season will take Eddie and Susie beyond the English countryside to the Italian lakes, marking a 'deliberate expansion, both geographically and thematically.' The duo will face an 'increasingly volatile empire' as they're 'besieged on all fronts by an influx of enigmatic new players.' The stakes will be higher, with 'more precarious power dynamics' as they navigate Bobby's questionable decisions.
Theo James has hinted at a darker tone for Season 2, suggesting Eddie's 'journey into the heart of darkness' will deepen, while Kaya Scodelario expressed interest in seeing the empire grow internationally, potentially exploring how Eddie and Susie manage a global operation without venturing into harder drugs. The tension between Eddie and Susie's love-hate relationship will also evolve, with James noting they 'love each other in their own way' but may never fully trust each other due to their differing worlds.

Movie Review: THE OLD GUARD 2
It's been five long years, but The Old Guard 2 is finally here. I don't know about the rest of the movie-watching world, but I've been longing to see these immortal warriors back in action. Now, with a new director at the helm, does this comic book adaptation live up to expectations? The Old Guard 2 The Old Guard 2 (L-R) Luca Marinelli as Nicky, Marwan Kenzari as Joe, Charlize Theron as Andy, Chiwetel Ejiofor as Copley and KiKi Layne as Nile in The Old Guard 2. Cr. Courtesy of Netflix © 2025 The Old Guard , adapted from the Greg Rucka and Leandro Fernández comic book series, arrived on Netflix during the pandemic. It quietly became a favorite for many, including me. Most of us couldn't wait for the sequel, but the possibility of The Old Guard 2 seemed elusive as more and more years ticked by. With Netflix's propensity for cancellations, many viewers expected the streaming service to cancel the trilogy. Thankfully, we were wrong. RELATED: Movie Review: The Phoenician Scheme The Old Guard 2 takes place around six months after the events of the first film. Andromache, or Andy (Charlize Theron), supposedly the world's oldest immortal, seems at peace with her newfound mortality. She's still leading her team of immortal mercenaries, which includes couple Joe (Marwan Kenzari) and Nicky (Luca Marinelli) and the newest immortal, Nile Freeman (Kiki Layne). RELATED: Movie Review: Jane Austen Wrecked My Life Added to the team is Copley (Chiwetel Ejiofor), a mortal who uncovered the team's immortality. Now, he's along for the ride to stop bad guys and protect the world. Joining the fray in The Old Guard 2 is Andy's secret associate, an immortal named Tuah (Henry Golding), who has dedicated his life to researching the histories of the immortals. Things Get Personal The Old Guard 2. Veronica Ngô as Quynh in The Old Guard 2. Cr. Courtesy of Netflix © 2025 The story of The Old Guard 2 is much more personal than the first. If there was one major criticism to be levied on the original film, it's that the villain was unmemorable and shlocky. This time around, the villain… well, she's got a point. RELATED: Movie Review: Materialists We'd learned about Andy's long-lost love, Quynh (Veronica Ngo), in the first film—she'd been imprisoned in an iron maiden and supposedly lost to the seas. Or, at the very least, Andy couldn't find her. But now Quynh is out, and she's joined forces with the boss villain to hunt down Andy. Why? Quynh learned that while she was trapped underwater for 500 years, her girlfriend's been roaming the world collecting buddies. Can you blame the woman for being a little angry? RELATED: Sinners Spoiler Review This is the crux of The Old Guard 2 . Andy's guilt and Quynh's anger position them on opposing sides. The story is very focused on these two, unfortunately to the detriment of the other characters. While the rest of the cast, including new villain Discord (Uma Thurman), have their moments, the film doesn't give them the chance to develop much. But there's a reason why. The Old Guard 2 Is Half a Story The Old Guard 2 (L-R) Chiwetel Ejiofor as Copley and Charlize Theron as Andy in The Old Guard 2. Cr. Eli Joshua Ade/Netflix © 2025 The Old Guard 2 is very obviously only half the tale. I wonder if director Victoria Mahoney and writers Greg Rucka and Sarah L. Walker were trying the Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse trick of leaving us with a cliffhanger, so a trilogy would be guaranteed. RELATED: 28 Years Later Spoiler Review That's not a bad tactic, especially given how streaming services constantly cancel properties for no good reason. I'm all for it. But we still need to get a complete product, irrespective of the cliffhanger. That's the biggest criticism for The Old Guard 2 . A lot of lore feels rushed and thrust at the viewer just in time to be useful to the story. All this new information, which becomes vital to the plot, as well as some of the character arcs, needs time to breathe. RELATED: Movie Review: Jurassic World Rebirth Nile feels particularly relegated to the background, instead of advancing the story like she had in the first film. Joe and Nicky, who stole our hearts with their romance in the original, get one sweet moment, but absolutely no romance. At least Booker (Matthias Schoenaerts) gets an arc. And yet, it's hard to complain when you have the complicated emotions of Andy and Quynh at play. We don't get much romance between them, aside from sad pining, so we could have done with half an hour more of these two being in love. We'd Better Get a Part 3 The Old Guard 2 (L-R) Luca Marinelli as Nicky and Marwan Kenzari as Joe in The Old Guard 2. Cr. Eli Joshua Ade/Netflix © 2025 If it's not obvious by now, The Old Guard 2 has issues. But there are plenty of bright sparks as well. The action scenes are much more energetic and better-paced in this film. And director Victoria Mahoney makes a few directorial choices that are breathtaking to watch. RELATED: Movie Review: From the World of John Wick: Ballerina The sets and locations are outstanding. From a ridiculously quirky art-infested home to a gorgeous underground library to a sterile but ominous nuclear facility, The Old Guard 2 boggles the mind with its set choices. The characters continue to be the biggest draw. Layne has some great snarky moments. Ngo gets more screen time, and she's a striking presence, dressed gorgeously, while subtly sharing a myriad of emotions. RELATED: Thunderbolts* Spoiler Review Kenzari and Marinelli still have so much chemistry, you wish the best for their loved-up characters. And Golding and Ejiofor are always so magnetic on screen, you can't stop watching them. This isn't Theron's best performance, but she brings so much love to Andy that we deserve to see her inhabit this role again. And Thurman, well, she's just getting started with Discord. Her screen presence is undeniable. RELATED: Movie Review: M3GAN 2.0 Even if the story is half-told, The Old Guard 2 feels immersive. The characters are so lovable, they wind their way into your heart. You may not agree with all their decisions, but they definitely make sense. Admittedly, the film isn't quite as epic as its poster makes it out to be. But, irrespective of how good, bad, or rotten the ratings are for The Old Guard 2 , Netflix had better give us the threequel. We need to know what happens next. The Old Guard 2 is now streaming on Netflix.
