It sounds like it is official. Just as it is closing its UK broadcast run for season two on Sky, and two weeks into its AMC+ airing stateside, a third season has been ordered for Gangs Of London.
The action-packed series was created by Gareth Evans and Matt Flannery and is absolutely fantastic. Think of those glorious horror movies with classy kills but spin it into the action genre. Inventive, extremely violent and totally gripping, the series is a must-see so do check it out. Seasons one and two are literally about to be released onto disc in the UK if you have no access to Sky.
The plot synopsis for season two is as follows:
Set one year after the tumultuous events of season one, the map and soul of London has been redrawn. The surviving Wallaces are scattered, the Dumanis broken and estranged, and ex-undercover cop Elliot (Sope Dirisu) is now being forced to work for the investors. To restore order, the investors have aligned behind heroin baron Asif Afridi and together they have installed a new ruling force in London in the form of brutal gang leader, Koba. His vision for the criminal landscape is a dictatorship, a world in which old school gangster codes don’t exist and in which he holds a complete monopoly over London’s drug trade. But this monopoly can’t last forever. The gangs are fighting back – who will win the battle for the soul of London?
No idea of dates for season 3 but we’ll obviously keep you posted.
