Netflix renews Guy Ritchie’s ‘The Gentlemen’ for season 3, releases season 2 trailer
The streamer has ordered a third season of the series created and directed by Guy Ritchie, and it has published the full trailer for season 2 ahead of its September 3 premiere.
Netflix has renewed Guy Ritchie’s crime comedy series “The Gentlemen” for a third season, with Ritchie set to return as director, according to Deadline. The decision extends Netflix’s run of Ritchie-branded crime content and keeps the show in production as it prepares to roll out its next installment to subscribers.
The renewal announcement arrives alongside Netflix’s release of the complete trailer for “The Gentlemen” season 2. Deadline reports that the new season is scheduled to premiere on September 3, placing the trailer drop in the typical lead-up window used by major streamers for timed releases.
Season 2’s trailer provides an advance look at the show’s ongoing criminal ecosystem, including the entanglements among characters introduced in earlier episodes. Netflix’s marketing for the second season underscores that the streamer views the program as an established franchise rather than a limited run.
Deadline also reports that Meghan Markle is in talks to join “The Gentlemen” for season 3. The report frames the development as discussions rather than a finalized casting agreement, with no details provided in the available summary about character, episode count, or timing.
Ritchie’s return to direct the third season is presented as part of Netflix’s plan to maintain creative continuity. For a streamer, that can matter for production schedules, budgeting, and audience expectations, particularly for series built around a recognizable directorial style.
Netflix has not provided additional public details in the available reporting summary about how Markle’s potential casting, or any other season 3 changes, would affect the show’s storyline progression. As with casting negotiations, any final commitment would be expected to come through later announcements closer to production and release milestones.
With season 2 due to premiere on September 3, the immediate next step for viewers is the debut of the new episodes, while industry attention will likely turn to whether Netflix confirms casting additions for season 3 and to whether Ritchie’s third-season production follows the same pace as prior installments.
