Guy Ritchie’s “The Gentlemen” Gets First Teaser

Anytime Guy Ritchie has a new project, we’re excited. His style and presentation is always slick and visually interesting (despite how we feel about “Aladdin” that is). The next thing he’s got for us is a series adaptation of his 2019 film, “The Gentlemen.” And thanks to streamer home Netflix, we’ve got our first look at what it’s gonna be like.

Theo James (“The White Lotus“) stars as Eddie Horniman, The Duke of Halstead, who finds himself embroiled in criminality after inheriting his father’s estate. Kaya Scodelario plays Susie Glass, Bobby’s effortlessly stylish and steely daughter who runs the day-to-day business of the empire.

The series also stars Ray Winstone, Daniel Ings, Joely Richardson, Vinnie Jones, Giancarlo Esposito, Chanel Cresswell, Michael Vu, Max Beesley, Jasmine Blackborow, Harry Goodwins, Dar Salim, Pearce Quigley, Ruby Sear, and Peter Serafinowicz.

Series logline:

THE GENTLEMEN sees Eddie Horniman (James) unexpectedly inherit his father’s sizable country estate – only to discover it’s part of a clandestine cannabis empire. Moreover, many unsavory characters from Britain’s criminal underworld want a piece of the operation. Determined to extricate his family from their clutches, Eddie tries to play the gangsters at their own game. However, as he gets sucked into the world of criminality, he begins to find a taste for it.

The 8 episode series will hit Netflix sometime in March 2024. Check out the teaser now-
