As ‘Industry‘ Season 3 prepares to premiere on the BBC in the UK next month, HBO has already renewed the financial drama for a 4th Season.
‘Industry’ gives an insider’s view of the black box of high finance following a group of young bankers as they forge their identities within the pressure cooker environment and sex and drug-fueled blitz of international bank Pierpoint & Co’s London office.
The 3rd Season, which is currently airing on HBO in the USA, is pacing nearly 40% ahead of season two with an average of 1.6M viewers per episode, and growing. Viewership in the past five weeks ranks among its top five weeks ever. Social conversations are tracking over 2X higher than last season while growing by double-digits each week.
“We are beyond thrilled and grateful to HBO, the incredible team at Bad Wolf and our phenomenal cast and crew for their continued belief in ‘Industry’ and for allowing us to grow as creators, writers and now directors whilst taking the show to new heights,” said Mickey Down & Konrad Kay, Creators, Writers, Directors and Executive Producers. “We can’t wait to dive deeper and deliver the best season yet in season 4.”
In season three, as Pierpoint looks to the future and takes a big bet on ethical investing, Yasmin (Marisa Abela), Robert (Harry Lawtey), and Eric (Ken Leung) find themselves front and centre in the splashy IPO of Lumi, a green tech energy company led by Sir Henry Muck (Kit Harington), in a story that runs all the way to the very top of finance, media, and government. Since leaving Pierpoint, Harper (Myha’la) is eager to get back into the addictive thrill of finance and finds an unlikely partner in FutureDawn portfolio manager Petra Koenig (Sarah Goldberg).
The Season 3 cast also includes Conor MacNeill, Sagar Radia, Miriam Petche, Indy Lewis, Adam Levy, Sarah Parish, Trevor White, Elena Saurel, Irfan Shamji, Andrew Havill, Roger Barclay, Fady Elsayed, and Fiona Button.
“For three seasons, INDUSTRY has been unflinching in its examination of ambition and class, solidifying itself as a marquee HBO drama,” adds Francesca Orsi, Executive Vice President, HBO Programming, Head of HBO Drama Series and Films. “Under Mickey and Konrad’s singular vision, this twisted, thrilling look at London finance has redefined the contemporary workplace show. We’re so excited that viewers and critics have recognized season three as bigger and better than ever, buoyed by sublime performances from our unparalleled cast. We have no doubt that Mickey and Konrad, alongside the amazing team under executive producer Jane Tranter at Bad Wolf and executive producer Kathleen McCaffrey, will take season four to even greater heights.”
‘Industry’ is created, written, and executive produced by Mickey Down & Konrad Kay. The series is a Bad Wolf Production for HBO/BBC and is executive produced by Jane Tranter, Kate Crowther, and Ryan Rasmussen for Bad Wolf; and Rebecca Ferguson for BBC. Directors include Mickey Down & Konrad Kay, Isabella Eklöf, and Zoé Wittock. Kathleen McCaffrey of Little Gems will be joining as executive producer for the new season.
‘Industry‘ Season 3 premieres Tuesday, 1st October 2024 in the UK. All eight episodes will be available on BBC iPlayer from 6am, with the BBC One transmission beginning at 10:40pm that night.
