The Gentlemen Season 2 Lets Eddie Embrace Crime
In Season 2 of The Gentlemen, Eddie is no longer trying to leave the criminal world.
He has become a crime boss and is enjoying his new power.
He still dresses and acts like an aristocrat, but he is now much more dangerous.
Eddie works with Susie Glass, and their business grows beyond England.
More gangsters, politicians and powerful people become involved.
Freddy, Eddie’s brother, continues to cause trouble in ridiculous ways.
The show keeps its stylish dialogue, strange criminals and polite conversations that can suddenly become violent.

Theo James returns as Eddie Horniman, who now rules the criminal world instead of trying to escape it.
Eddie and Susie Glass expand their partnership beyond England as new criminal and political forces enter their orbit.
The season keeps Guy Ritchie’s heightened dialogue, elaborate power games and collision of aristocracy with organized crime.
