In 2019 Guy Ritchie released his action comedy movie, “The Gentlemen.”  STACKED with an all star cast including: Matthew McConaughey, Charlie Hunnam, Colin Farrell and Hugh Grant it told the story of a marijuana drug lord in England and the twisted tale of him trying to sell his empire.

Flash forward to today and Netflix has just released a teaser for an upcoming series by Guy Ritchie based off the film.  All they had to do was mention that Giancarlo Esposito was in it and that would have been enough to have us go all in.  He demands our attention and he shall have it!

Here is what Netflix has to say about this new series, “The Gentlemen” that premiers this March.

Pour a glass of top-shelf whiskey and put your fists up, because a brand-new Guy Ritchie gangster romp is coming to steal your attention. 

Premiering in March, The Gentlemen introduces television audiences to a new slice of the world initially brought to life in Ritchie’s 2020 film of the same name. While the characters in the upcoming TV show will be totally different from the movie, The Gentlemen will have all the same bite — along with a bunch of fresh tricks up its well-tailored sleeve, as the new teaser trailer reveals. 

The White Lotus star Theo James leads The Gentlemen as the Duke of Halstead, Eddie Horniman, the estranged son of an English aristocrat who finds himself embroiled in a world of criminality — specifically career criminal Bobby Glass’ (Ray Winstone) industrial cannabis empire on the East End of London. Crawl’s Kaya Scodelario stars as Susie Glass, Bobby’s effortlessly fashionable and ruthless daughter who handles the day-to-day business of the drug operation. Ritchie is at the helm of the action drama as creator, co-writer, executive producer, and director of the first two episodes. 

“The world of The Gentlemen is a little bit of me,” Ritchie told Netflix last November. “We’re looking forward to bringing fans back into that world, introducing new characters and their stories, and I am excited to be doing it with this extremely talented cast.”
