Conor MacNeill, Sagar Radia, Indy Lewis, Adam Levy, Sarah Parish, Trevor White, Elena Saurel, and Irfan Shamji co-star.

Kit Harington and Sarah Goldberg joined the Season 3 ensemble cast, along with Miriam Petche, Andrew Havill, Roger Barclay, Fady Elsayed, and Fiona Button.

The official series logline reads: “‘Industry’ gives an insider’s view of the blackbox of high finance following a group of young bankers as they forge their identities within the pressure cooker environment and sex and drug fueled blitz of international bank Pierpoint & Co’s London office.”

The original drama series is produced by Bad Wolf for HBO.

“For three seasons, ‘Industry’ has been unflinching in its examination of ambition and class, solidifying itself as a marquee HBO drama,” Francesca Orsi, Executive Vice President, HBO Programming, Head of HBO Drama Series and Films, said. “Under Mickey and Konrad’s singular vision, this twisted, thrilling look at London finance has redefined the contemporary workplace show. We’re so excited that viewers and critics have recognized season three as bigger and better than ever, buoyed by sublime performances from our unparalleled cast. We have no doubt that Mickey and Konrad, alongside the amazing team under executive producer Jane Tranter at Bad Wolf and executive producer Kathleen McCaffrey, will take season four to even greater heights.”

Co-creators/writers/directors/executive producers Down and Kay added, “We are beyond thrilled and grateful to HBO, the incredible team at Bad Wolf and our phenomenal cast and crew for their continued belief in ‘Industry’ and for allowing us to grow as creators, writers and now directors whilst taking the show to new heights. We can’t wait to dive deeper and deliver the best season yet in Season 4.”

Bad Wolf founder and CEO Jane Tranter, who executive produces the series, shared, “It has been an extraordinary journey over the past 8 years from initial development to now the commission of a fourth season of Industry.  HBO’s unswerving belief in Mickey, Konrad, the cast and the whole creative team at Bad Wolf is a huge vote of confidence in uncertain times. This commitment to nurturing new talent and investment in quality programming has resulted in a show we are all exceptionally proud of. Bad Wolf cannot wait to get everyone back to Wolf Studios Wales to take Industry to even greater heights.”

Season 3 is pacing nearly 40 percent ahead of Season 2 viewership, with an average of 1.6M viewers per episode and growing. Viewership for “Industry” in the past five weeks rank among its top five weeks ever. Social conversations are tracking over 2x higher than last season while growing by double-digits each week, as HBO announced.

“Industry” is created, written, and executive produced by Mickey Down and Konrad Kay. The series is a Bad Wolf Production for HBO/BBC and is executive produced by Jane Tranter, Kate Crowther, and Ryan Rasmussen for Bad Wolf; and Rebecca Ferguson for BBC. Directors include Mickey Down & Konrad Kay, Isabella Ekl?f, and Zoé Wittock. Kathleen McCaffrey of Little Gems will be joining as executive producer for the new season.

The third season premiered at the 2024 ATX TV Festival, where co-creators Kay and Down deemed the new episodes “super intense,” especially as the core cast descends into “self-destruction.”

“Industry” debuted in 2020, with IndieWire critic Ben Travers comparing the series to a “slick, British ‘Margin Call’” crossed with financial films like “Wall Street” and “The Wolf of Wall Street.”
