Production


Guy Ritchie entered development of a television series for him to write and direct inspired by his film The Gentlemen with Moonage Pictures and Miramax Television in October 2020. Ritchie was also executive producing alongside the producers of the original film. Matthew Read helped Richie write the pilot script, also coming on board to executive produce at Moonage with Will Gould, and Netflix ultimately ordered the series. The cast, including Theo James, Kaya Scodelario, Daniel Ings, Joely Richardson, Giancarlo Esposito, Peter Serafinowicz, and Vinnie Jones, was announced the week before filming was set to begin, and Alexis Rodney was added in the first week of filming. In June 2023, Max Beesley was added to the cast, and Hugh Warren was revealed as the series producer. Chanel Cresswell joined the cast in a recurring role during production in December. Ray Winstone, Jasmine Blackborow, and Michael were also revealed to be part of the cast through a teaser in January 2024.
Production took place in London and Badminton House running from November 2022 through June 2023. Filming took place at Longcross Studios and West London Film Studios with additional on-location shooting throughout the city, including at the Princess Victoria pub and the Tate Modern as well as areas of Hackney and Islington. Stoke Poges in Buckinghamshire is used for two locations with Stoke Court the location of the prison where Bobby Glass is seen on the roof with his pigeons and Chucky's mansion is a property on West End Lane. The backdrop of Printworks London was also present during the first episode.
On August 14, 2024, the series was renewed for a second season.

Anita Singh of The Telegraph gave the series three stars out of five, describing it as "everything you want from a Guy Ritchie caper."
