Guy Ritchie is well and truly pivoting into TV. Following the success of Netflix’s The Gentlemen, the Snatch and Sherlock Holmes director has doubled down on his foray away from film with MobLand, a grisly gangster drama coming this weekend to Paramount+.
And it’s got an all-star cast, with Tom Hardy, Helen Mirren and Pierce Brosnan top of the billing. Hardy plays Harry da Souza, the “fixer” for Helen Mirren and Pierce Brosnan’s ruthless Irish crime family, the Harrigans. Brosnan is patriarch Conrad Harrigan, an Irish gangster done good, and Mirren is matriarch Maeve Harrigan, who’s more interested in Succession-level scheming than she is in being a traditional mob wife.
