Guy Ritchie fans don't have long to wait until the director's latest gangster series drops on Netflix. The Gentlemen will deliver the same grit and bite of its 2019 film counterpart to a new set of unassuming characters.
Set in London and starring The White Lotus' Theo James, the series follows the estranged son of an English aristocrat who finds himself embroiled in a world of criminality. When Eddie Horniman's father dies, he inherits his extraordinary estate - only to discover it's sitting atop of Europe's largest cannabis farm.
Ray Winstone and Kaya Scodelario are father-and-daughter cannabis bosses Bobby and Susie Glass, whom Eddie must now face. Guy Ritchie is at the helm of the action drama as creator, co-writer, executive producer, and director of the first two episodes.

Duke of Halstead Eddie finds himself caught up in London's drugs underworld - and begins to develop a taste for it. Eddie tries to play the gangsters at their own game. “And that’s where deals are struck with the underworld that will probably come back to haunt him,” Ritchie explained.
