While season 3 is already confirmed, audiences still have season 2 to watch first. The second season picks up roughly a year after Eddie inherits his aristocratic family estate and becomes involved in the criminal operation connected to it. This time, Eddie and Susie are looking to expand their enterprise beyond Britain, taking their business into international territory.
The trailer hints at bigger criminal schemes, shifting alliances and fresh threats as Eddie becomes increasingly comfortable with his newfound position in the underworld. Season 2 is set to premiere on September 3, 2026, on Netflix.
Will Meghan Markle be part of The Gentlemen 3?
The season 3 renewal comes amid considerable speculation surrounding Meghan Markle. Earlier reports claimed Markle was in advanced discussions for a potential role in the third season. The casting speculation attracted significant attention because it could mark her most substantial scripted acting role since leaving Suits. Reuters previously reported that Meghan had not confirmed the casting and that Netflix and representatives had declined to comment.

However, the story took another turn when former Vanity Fair and New Yorker editor Tina Brown claimed that Meghan's reported casting had been withdrawn, allegedly following backlash in the UK.
Netflix has confirmed that The Gentlemen will return for an eight-episode third season, with Ritchie back at the helm. However, the streaming giant has yet to reveal a release date or full cast details.
