\n\tGuy Ritchie\u2019s The Gentlemen<\/a> is adding a few more gentlemen (and ladies) for its third season, which has started production in UK and Morocco. Joining the Theo James-starring series are The Lord of the Rings movie franchise stars Orlando Bloom<\/a> and Elijah Wood<\/a>, Robert Carlyle<\/a> (Line of Duty), Dexter Fletcher (Ritchie\u2019s Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels), and Bruna Marquezine (Blue Beetle), as well as Ed Speleers (You), Saffron Burrows (You), and Bugzy Malone (Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre).<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Middle East-set new season will not feature Suits alumna Meghan Markle<\/a> who had had conversations about a role<\/a> but that is no longer in the cards. <\/p>\n

\n\tJames leads The Gentlemen\u2018s returning cast alongside Kaya Scodelario, Ray Winstone, Joely Richardson, Vinnie Jones, Jasmine Blackborow, Harry Goodwins and Benjamin Clementine \u2014 who all have been on the show since Season 1 \u2014 as well as Maya Jama, who made her debut in Season 2 playing the glamorous and well-connected fixer, Aisha.<\/p>\n

\n\tNot returning for Season 3 are two core cast members who had been with The Gentlemen since the start, Daniel Ings, who plays Lord Frederick \u201cFreddy\u201d Horniman, Eddie\u2019s (James) cocaine-addicted older brother, and Giancarlo Esposito as American billionaire and drug kingpin Stanley Johnston.<\/p>\n

\n\tFreddy was last seen in the Season 2 finale bloodied and traumatized, holding Gospel John Dixon\u2019s severed head after he had been forced by Eddie to decapitate him as punishment for helping Dixon carry on the plane explosion that killed Eddie\u2019s wife, Bella. Meanwhile, Stanley was arrested over his illegal dealings.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI\u2019m not in the next one, so that\u2019s a fun sense of closure,\u201d Ings recently told HATC Magazine. \u201cI see it as closure for the character in a way; it just ends as this wild, broken, crazy, probably mumbling into the ether somewhere in the British countryside.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tIn Season 3, Eddie (James) and Susie (Scodelario) embark upon their most audacious project yet: building a casino in the Middle East. But with danger lurking around every corner, has the Duke\u2019s unchecked ambition finally gone too far? (You can see a video of the duo on set below.)<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Gentlemen\u2018s eight-episode Season 3 is written by Ritchie and Matthew Read, directed by Ritchie and Eran Creevy and executive produced by Ritchie, Ivan Atkinson, Read, Will Gould, Simon Crawford Collins and Frith Tiplady for Moonage Pictures alongside Jonathan Glickman and Alix Jaffe for Miramax TV, and James. The series is produced by Moonage Pictures for Netflix and Miramax TV.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Guy Ritchie\u2019s The Gentlemen is adding a few more gentlemen (and ladies) for its third season, which has…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":811523,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[38705,96,59,100,477,20982,141773,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-811522","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-elijah-wood","tag-entertainment","tag-gb","tag-meghan-markle","tag-orlando-bloom","tag-robert-carlyle","tag-the-gentlemen","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/811522","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=811522"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/811522\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/811523"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=811522"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=811522"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=811522"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
