Guy Ritchie’s hit Netflix crime series is returning for another round of high-society chaos, aristocratic antics, and underground criminal expansion. Following the massive success of its debut, The Gentlemen Season 2 promises bigger stakes, dangerous new enemies, and an expanding empire.
Here is everything we know so far about The Gentlemen Season 2 on Netflix, including the official release date, cast additions, plot line, and creative team.
The Gentlemen Season 2 Release Date: When Is It Coming to Netflix?
The Gentlemen Season 2 will officially premiere on Netflix on September 3, 2026. All eight episodes of the second season are expected to drop simultaneously, continuing the story following the greenlight announced after the show’s blockbuster inaugural run.
What Happens in The Gentlemen Season 2? (Plot Synopsis)
Season 1 saw Eddie Horniman (Theo James), the new Duke of Halstead, inherit his family’s grand estate—only to discover a massive illegal weed empire hidden beneath the grounds, managed by the ruthless Susie Glass (Kaya Scodelario) and her incarcerated kingpin father, Bobby Glass (Ray Winstone). Despite initially trying to pull his family out of the underworld, Eddie developed a taste for the game, ending the first eight episodes as a co-owner of the empire alongside Susie and Bobby.
The official Season 2 storyline synopsis:
It’s been one year since Eddie and Susie joined forces to work together in Bobby’s criminal empire overseas. As they drive to expand their enterprise, the decisions Bobby is making seem to be increasingly unsound. Now Eddie and Susie must decide whether to take action or risk losing it all, but unfettered ambition never ends well…
