Guy Ritchie’s new crime series doesn’t have an official title, but it does have a stellar cast. Paramount+ announced the series will star Pierce Brosnan (Die Another Day), Helen Mirren (1923), and Tom Hardy (Venom: The Last Dance) as series regulars.
Paramount+ describes the project as “an electrifying, new global crime series centered around two warring families based in London whose enterprises stretch all corners of the globe and the fiercely loyal ‘fixer’ charged with protecting one of them at all costs.”
Per the streamer, Hardy will play Harry Da Souza, a professional conciliator on behalf of the Harrigan family. Brosnan stars as Conrad Harrigan, the head of a very successful Irish crime family based out of London for whom Harry works. Mirren plays Maeve Harrigan, Conrad’s wife and the Harrigan family matriarch.
Production is underway in London, with Ritchie, Hardy, Keith Cox, Nina L. Diaz, David C. Glasser, Jez Butterworth, and Ronan Bennett executive producing. Additional executive producers include Kris Thykier, Ivan Atkinson, Dean Baker, Ron Burkle, David Hutkin, and Bob Yari.
“Tom Hardy, Pierce Brosnan, and Helen Mirren are masters at their craft and we are honored to have them lead the cast for Guy Richie’s new global, original series,” stated Chris McCarthy, Paramount Global Co-CEO and President/CEO of SHOWTIME/MTV Entertainment Studios. “Guy, Jez Butterworth, and Ronan Bennett’s creative prowess, coupled with these gifted actors, is the perfect recipe for what we believe will be the next brand-defining series for Showtime on Paramount+.”
The Paramount+ series is produced by Showtime/MTV Entertainment Studios and 101 Studios.
“The firepower on and off the screen in this new Guy Ritchie crime series will deliver exactly what audiences expect from Paramount + with Showtime: high-caliber acting, high-impact storylines, and high-level production from some of the best in the business,” said Jeff Grossman, Executive Vice President of programming for Paramount+.
Paramount+ is targeting a 2025 premiere.
