Netflix has released the official full-length trailer for "The Gentlemen," an upcoming British gangster series created by Guy Ritchie. Serving as a loose spin-off set within the same universe as his 2019 British crime film of the same title, the series promises the signature elements characteristic of a Guy Ritchie production. You can expect to see British gangsters dressed in impeccably tailored suits, thick accents, fast cars, underground prize fighters, a generous dose of firearms, and the unmistakable presences of Vinnie Jones, Giancarlo Esposito, and Ray Winstone.

Headlining the Netflix series is Theo James, acclaimed for his role in "The White Lotus: Season 2," portraying Eddie Horniman. Eddie, a British aristocrat, unexpectedly inherits his father's affluent countryside estate, only to discover his father's secret involvement in a cannabis drug-running enterprise. Thrust into the family's illegal dealings, Eddie must navigate his newfound leadership role while grappling with its inherent challenges. As he delves deeper, he realizes that the criminal lifestyle may suit him more than he initially anticipated.

Joining James is a stellar ensemble cast including Kaya Scodelario, Daniel Ings, Joely Richardson, Giancarlo Esposito, Ray Winstone, Peter Serafinowicz, Vinnie Jones, and Dar Salim.

Guy Ritchie takes the directorial helm for the first two episodes of the Netflix series, while also assuming the role of executive producer alongside Matthew Read, with both collaborating in writing the pilot episode.

"The Gentlemen" premieres exclusively on Netflix starting March 7th. Watch the full trailer, above.
