“I loved, loved, loved it. I mean, it was such a great script and such a great character. Just [an] incredible cast. Yeah, I feel really, really blessed. I love playing Jan. I always wanted to play a gangster’s wife or a gangster, and then she came my way.”<\/p>\n

A hit among critics, the first season, which has a score of 76% on Rotten Tomatoes<\/a> from 45 reviews, was described as “epic” and “grizzly”. <\/p>\n

“The idea that a Tom Hardy character cajoling, threatening or influencing someone is an art form in itself is the core of MobLand, a decent new gangster epic that casts Hardy as top fixer Harry Da Souza,” penned The Guardian<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The Standard<\/a> said: “The series is a silly, grizzly jaunt, in typical Guy Ritchie fashion, and some of the stars are an absolute hoot. The trouble is that other than a few entertaining performances and a well placed Fontaines DC opening track, it\u2019s really nothing new.”<\/p>\n

“MobLand isn’t a grand reinvention of the gangster show,” wrote Collider<\/a>. “But it does offer plenty of twists and turns, paired with a magnetic cast that will have you eagerly anticipating every new episode.”<\/p>\n
