Guy Ritchie‘s Netflix series The Gentlemen returned with a second season earlier this month, although viewership was down by around 45% in its first week. It is believed that the longer shows take between seasons, the higher the chances are of fans dropping out. The Gentlemen took around two years to return, but Ritchie’s other hit show has a better chance of succeeding purely because it’s coming back within a year of its premiere. The show in question made a splashy debut on Paramount+ in 2025, breaking viewership benchmarks set by Taylor Sheridan‘s platform-defining hit Yellowstone. Awareness for the series didn’t dip even during the off-season, thanks to the many controversies that it found itself embroiled in.
It was reported that star Tom Hardy had been fired from the project’s future seasons after he had a run-in with some key creatives. This was later revealed to be false, but not until several reports had emerged claiming to detail what went down. Hardy’s feud with Charlize Theron on the set of Mad Max: Fury Road was cited as proof of his on-set behavior, but it was eventually revealed that not only had Hardy not been fired, but he would be returning to headline the show in a confirmed third season. All of this is to say that Paramount+ is highly bullish about the series, which follows the Godfather template but unfolds in contemporary London.

Sheridan Has Spoken You Belong In…
The show that claimed the most of your answers is the world you were built for. If two tied, both are shown — you’re complicated enough to straddle two Sheridan universes.

You are a Dutton — or you might as well be. You understand that some things are worth protecting at any cost, and that the modern world’s indifference to history, to land, to legacy, is not something you’re willing to accept quietly. You lead from the front, you carry your family’s weight without complaint, and when someone threatens what’s yours, you don’t escalate — you finish it. You’re not cruel. But you are absolute. In Yellowstone’s world, that combination of ferocity and loyalty doesn’t make you a villain. It makes you the only thing standing between everything that matters and everyone who wants to take it.
You thrive in the chaos of high-stakes negotiation, where the money is enormous, the margins are thin, and the wrong word in the wrong room can cost everyone everything. You’re a fixer — the person called when a situation is already on fire and needs someone with the nerve to walk into it. West Texas oil country rewards exactly what you are: sharp, adaptable, unsentimental, and absolutely clear-eyed about what people want and what they’ll do to get it. You’re not naive enough to think this world is fair. You’re smart enough to be the one deciding who it’s fair to.

You are a Dwight Manfredi — someone who has served their time, paid their dues, and arrived somewhere unexpected with nothing but their reputation and their wits. You adapt without losing yourself. You build loyalty through respect rather than fear, though you’re not above reminding people that the two aren’t mutually exclusive. Tulsa King is for people who are still standing when everyone assumed they’d be finished — who find, in an unfamiliar place, that they’re more capable than the world gave them credit for. You don’t need a throne. You build one, wherever you happen to land.
You carry the weight of a system that is broken by design, and you do it anyway — because someone has to, and because you’re the only one positioned to do it without the whole thing collapsing. Mike McLusky’s world is for people who are comfortable operating where there are no good options, only less catastrophic ones. You speak every language: law enforcement, criminal, political, human. That fluency makes you invaluable and it makes you a target. You’ve made your peace with both. Mayor of Kingstown belongs to people who understand that keeping the peace is not the same as being at peace — and who do the job regardless.

Here’s When Tom Hardy’s Fan-Favorite Series Will Return
Created by Ronan Bennett but marketing on the strength of Ritchie’s brand, the show in question is MobLand. It also features PierceBrosnan, Helen Mirren, and Paddy Considine, and it received mostly positive reviews upon release in 2025. MobLand now holds a “Certified Fresh” 77% score on the aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, where the consensus reads, “Tom Hardy’s gruff charisma is put to good use in MobLand, a gangster saga that hardly reinvents the genre but nails its conventions with crunchy style and memorable performances.” The series will return with a second season on September 18, with Ophelia Lovibond and Johnny Flynn joining the cast in recurring roles. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.
