Guy Ritchie’s The Gentlemen and MobLand Find Sustained Success Across Streaming Platforms

Guy Ritchie’s television expansion of The Gentlemen has maintained a resilient presence on the Netflix charts, remaining in the Top 10 for over a month following its Season 2 premiere on September 3, 2026. While the series has ceded the #1 spot to the Florence Pugh-led limited series East of Eden, which debuted October 1, Ritchie’s crime drama continues to exhibit significant staying power among global audiences.

The second season of The Gentlemen appears to have resonated with long-term viewers; according to Nielsen data for the week of September 14–20, the series drew 544 million minutes of watch time across its 16 available episodes.

The second season of the crime drama expanded its setting from the UK to Italy.

Despite its longevity on the charts, the series faced a more competitive landscape than its predecessor. Internal Netflix data indicates that Season 2 earned 6.7 million views in its opening frame—a 45% decrease compared to the debut season in 2024. However, the consistent daily performance of the show has been enough to secure a Netflix Top 10 record for the franchise, prompting the streaming giant to officially confirm a third season in late August, prior to the Season 2 launch.

Ritchie’s influence on the streaming landscape currently extends beyond Netflix. On Paramount+, his other major television project, MobLand, is also seeing success. Season 2 of the series, which stars Tom Hardy as Harry Da Souza and features Helen Mirren, premiered on September 18, 2026.

While Netflix hosts , Paramount+ is home to Ritchie's other series, .

Originally developed as a spin-off of Ray Donovan under the working title The Donovans, MobLand was eventually retooled into a standalone Ritchie series. The show explores the intersection of high-stakes crime and personal loyalty, mirroring the stylistic hallmarks found in Ritchie’s cinematic work.

While East of Eden currently dominates the immediate conversation on Netflix, the sustained performance of The Gentlemen suggests a loyal fanbase that prefers the episodic nature of Ritchie’s world-building. With The Gentlemen Season 3 already in development and MobLand continuing its run on Paramount+, the director has effectively secured a dual-platform foothold in the crime drama genre.
