Picture a new Netflix television series created by Guy Ritchie. Well, you can expect plenty of badass British gangsters. Check! Stylish characters in well-fitted suits, check! You can also expect a generous supply of fast cars, cigars, boxers, a healthy dose of guns and firearms and the one and only Vinnie Jones. It's all there, double-checked and ready to roll!

Here's the very first official teaser for "The Gentlemen," an upcoming Netflix original series from filmmaker Guy Ritchie, set in the world of his 2019 British gangster film of the same name.

In this spin-off (of sorts), "The Gentlemen" stars Theo James (from "The White Lotus: Season 2") as Eddie Horniman, a British aristocrat who unexpectedly finds himself inheriting his father's wealthy countryside estate. What he doesn't anticipate is that his deceased father was the mastermind behind a cannabis drug-running operation. Now forced into the family's illicit business, Eddie must acclimate to his newfound leadership position and contend with the challenges that come with it. He soon discovers that the criminal life suits him better than he initially thought.

Alongside James, the series boasts an impressive ensemble cast including Kaya Scodelario, Daniel Ings, Joely Richardson, Giancarlo Esposito, Ray Winstone, Peter Serafinowicz, Vinnie Jones, and Dar Salim.

Guy Ritchie takes the reins, directing the first two episodes of the Netflix series. He also serves as an executive producer alongside Matthew Read, with both co-writing the pilot episode.

You can look forward to "The Gentlemen" hitting Netflix sometime later this year.
