The Gentlemen is an anticipated crime thriller that features Guy Ritchie’s unique sense of humor, stylish mobster action, and high stakes, as it follows the very aristocratic Horniman family as they plunge into the vast world of medical marijuana with the aid of “sharp operator” Susie Glass. The second season of this series can be expected to see global ambitions, deadly betrayals, darker jokes, intense power struggles, and even more chaotic criminality, as is typical of Ritchie, all portrayed in his trademark hyperkinetic style. As seen in Season 1, this series will have audiences on the edge of their seats due to all the previous alliances and unbelievable plot twists. Release of season 2 is set for 2024.

The Gentlemen Season 2: Release date news

According to Netflix’s announcement, The Gentlemen has been officially renewed for its 2nd Season and is currently part of Netflix’s 2026 series lineup.

Guy Ritchie created and directed THE GENTLEMEN. It is a series based on his 2019 movie of the same name. The first season was released in March of 2024, and Netflix renewed it for a second season in August of 2024, due to its good ratings.

Currently, there is no exact release date for the second season, but it will arrive sometime in 2026. Filming took place from the spring of 2025 to October 2025. Once filming is completed and post-production has been finished or is almost finished, the release of the second season in 2026 will be realized. No trailer has been published yet.

The second season will contain the same number of episodes as the first season, which was eight.

The Gentlemen Season 2: Plot Details

In season two, we are now about one year removed from the events of season one. Both Eddie and Susie have moved much deeper into Bobby Glass’s criminal network and have ambitions to do more than just work in the UK.

Netflix has teased out the potential for more payroll, more enemies, and more risk as these two continue to operate on a global scale. Expect there to be a much larger, more international criminal world than the previous year. As in the first season, the show will combine a high society drama with organised crime, dark humour, and extreme violence, which Ritchie has become well known for.

Returning as directors and co-writers of season two are Guy Ritchie and Matthew Read, while episodes are directed by Eran Creevy and Nick Rowland.

Gentlemen Season 2 has been confirmed for Netflix to premiere in 2026, has wrapped production, and the first trailer will likely be available just before the premiere. No date yet available for exact release.
