This season introduces a long list of new characters, including:

  • Hugh Bonneville (I Came By)
  • Benjamin Clementine (Dune)
  • Benedetta Porcaroli (The Leopard)
  • Michele Morrone (The Housemaid)
  • Sergio Castellitto (Conclave)
  • Amra Mallassi (Dune: Part Two)
  • Tyler Conti (Safe)
  • Chris Eubank Jr, professional boxer
  • Maya Jama, TV host and entrepreneur

The mix of veteran talent and fresh names suggests a bigger, riskier season that stretches well beyond the British countryside.

What’s Season 2 About?

It’s been a year since Eddie and Susie teamed up to run Bobby’s international empire. But as the criminal operation grows, cracks start to show. Bobby’s decisions are getting reckless, and Eddie and Susie find themselves at a crossroads: stay loyal or take control.

As creator Guy Ritchie puts it, this chapter marks a deliberate expansion “both geographically and thematically,” moving from England to the Italian lakes, with new enemies circling and power dynamics shifting. The tone remains gritty and stylish, with more volatility baked into every move.
