Industry S1-3
Industry S3 is one of Rotten Tomatoes’ Most Anticipated TV Shows of 2024, drawing Succession comparisons from them as “HBO’s other whip-smart and acid-tongued drama that’s really a comedy.”

An insider’s view of high finance, Industry followsa group of young bankers as they forge their identities within the pressure cooker environment and sex- and drug-fuelled blitz of international bank Pierpoint & Co’s London office.
In Season 3, Pierpoint looks to the future and takes a big bet on ethical investing. Yasmin (Marisa Abela), Robert (Harry Lawtey), and Eric (Ken Leung) find themselves front and centre dealing with Lumi, a green tech energy company led by Sir Henry Muck (Harington).
Since leaving Pierpoint, Harper (Myha’la) is eager to get back into the addictive thrill of finance and finds an unlikely partner in FutureDawn portfolio manager Petra Koenig (Goldberg).
