Turns out, as evidenced from the show’s first trailer above, that Eddie’s pops Bobby Glass (Ray Winstone), a career criminal from the East End of London, founded a cannabis empire – and now he’s been charged with keeping it in business. Fortunately, Eddie has Bobby’s steely daughter Susie (Kaya Scodelario) on hand to help, but things get complicated when a bunch of unsavory characters start trying to get in on the action.

“Do you know what I love about the British aristocracy?” one character says via voiceover in the clip. “You’re the original gangsters.”

Determined to extricate his family from their clutches, Eddie goes toe to toe with the underworld bosses. “However, as he gets sucked into the world of criminality, he begins to find a taste for it,” reads the official synopsis.

Michael Vu, Chanel Cresswell, Jasmine Blackborow, Harry Goodwins, Dar Salim, Pearce Quigley, Ruby Sear, Vinnie Jones, Joely Richardson, Daniel Ings, Max Beesly, Peter Serafinowicz, and Giancarlo Esposito round out the supporting cast. Richie serves as creator, co-writer, and director of the first two episodes.

The Gentlemen will release on Netflix sometime in March. While we wait, check out our list of thebest Netflix showsfor some viewing inspiration.
