🎬 The Gentlemen 2 (2025)
👉 Matthew McConaughey, Charlie Hunnam, Michelle Dockery
🎬 Directed by Guy Ritchie
✨ “In London’s underworld, crowns are never passed — they’re stolen.”
Following the razor-sharp thrills of The Gentlemen (2019), Guy Ritchie returns with The Gentlemen 2 (2025) — a darkly comic, high-octane sequel that dives deeper into the cutthroat chess game of London’s criminal aristocracy. With Matthew McConaughey, Charlie Hunnam, and Michelle Dockery reprising their roles, the stakes are higher, the schemes dirtier, and the betrayals bloodier.
The Story
Having narrowly survived an attempt to topple his empire, Mickey Pearson (Matthew McConaughey) is back in play — but this time, the marijuana kingpin isn’t cashing out. He’s expanding. With legalization changing the game, Mickey sets his sights on building a legitimate empire from the ashes of the black market.
But legitimacy paints a target on his back. Old rivals return, new players rise, and international money — from Eastern European syndicates to Silicon Valley disruptors — wants a piece of Mickey’s pie. Every deal comes with a dagger, every alliance hides a trap, and London’s underworld is hungrier than ever.
Ray (Charlie Hunnam) remains Mickey’s loyal consigliere, navigating the chaos with calm precision — though loyalty has its limits when secrets start to surface. Meanwhile, Rosalind (Michelle Dockery) proves once again she’s the sharpest mind in the room, wielding wit and ruthlessness that make even gangsters hesitate.
As betrayals stack and bullets fly, Mickey learns the hardest truth of all: in this game, the crown doesn’t go to the richest or the strongest — it goes to the most ruthless survivor.
The Cast
- Matthew McConaughey as Mickey Pearson: smooth, lethal, and determined to evolve from outlaw to mogul.
- Charlie Hunnam as Ray: steady, calculating, but tested when lines blur between loyalty and survival.
- Michelle Dockery as Rosalind Pearson: stylish, fearless, and every bit the queen of the empire.
Expect new blood — rival gang lords, corrupt politicians, and flashy tech billionaires — each written with Guy Ritchie’s trademark flair for eccentricity and menace.
The Style & Tone
Guy Ritchie sharpens his signature style:
- Rapid-fire dialogue laced with wit, deception, and double meaning.
- Stylish brutality — gunfights, ambushes, and brawls staged with operatic precision.
- Nonlinear twists that keep audiences guessing until the final frame.
- Dark comedy woven into every betrayal, deal, and double-cross.
It’s Ritchie’s world: slick, savage, and irresistibly stylish.
The Themes
- Power and legitimacy: can a kingpin ever go straight without painting a bigger target on his back?
- Loyalty under fire: when fortune shifts, who stands, and who sells?
- Class meets crime: the unholy marriage of London’s elite and its underground.
The Legacy
The Gentlemen revitalized Ritchie’s crime saga legacy, blending the grit of Snatch with the polish of a modern gangster epic. The Gentlemen 2 (2025) raises the stakes, promising a sharper, bloodier, and more chaotic ride — where survival is the only victory, and the only law is betrayal.
💥 Stylish, unpredictable, and viciously funny, The Gentlemen 2 (2025) is Guy Ritchie’s next crown jewel of crime cinema — proving that in London’s underworld, there are no gentlemen.
