MobLand Season 2 Premieres to Strong Reviews on Paramount Plus

The second season of the Paramount Plus gangster drama MobLand is set to premiere on September 18, 2026, with early reviews praising it as a significant improvement over its debut. Multiple critics, having viewed the first four episodes, describe the new season as gripping, stylish, and a marked step up in storytelling and character depth. The series, created by Ronan Bennett and partially directed by Guy Ritchie, follows the violent power struggles of the Harrigan crime family. Season 2 sees the family under siege from new external threats while facing internal fractures. Tom Hardy returns as the stoic fixer Harry Da Souza, who must navigate escalating tensions within the family and from dangerous new rivals. A central addition to the cast is Johnny Flynn as Frankie Cooper, a new villain described as menacing and unpredictable. Critics highlight Flynn's performance as a standout, comparing his character's eerie, Joker-like sensibility to a formidable foil for Hardy's composed Harry. The season also continues to feature Pierce Brosnan and Helen Mirren as the family's patriarch and matriarch, Conrad and Maeve Harrigan.
