The Gentlemen Netflix series: Guy Ritchie spin-off from 2018 film release date is confirmed for this year

Guy Ritchie Netflix series The Gentlemen has its release date confirmed with the show set to premiere very soon on the streaming platform. The series, which is a spin-off from Ritchie’s action comedy film of the same name, which was released on New Year’s Day 2020, follows young man Eddie Halstead who inherits a large estate from his father, but is unaware it is a front for a huge drug empire.

The 2020 movie starred Matthew McConaughey as Michael Pearson, a drug lord who cements his vast empire, and destroys his enemies. Pearson’s unseen presence is felt during the spinoff series, as Eddie, lacking any experience in the criminal world, must take over his father’s illicit business or risk losing the entire estate.

Ritchie began development on the series just 10 months after the film was released - it was filmed in London from November 2022 to June 2023, and now is gearing up for a global release on Netflix.
