Industry, the high-stakes financial drama, is returning for a fourth season with a fresh batch of cast members joining the fray. Production on the eight-episode season begins in the UK later this month.
Here’s the Lowdown: Kiernan Shipka (Twisters), Jack Farthing (Towards Zero), Toheeb Jimoh (Ted Lasso), and Amy James-Kelly (Three Families) are joining the cast. Shipka will play Hayley Clay, an executive assistant; Farthing is Edward Smith, a friend of Henry Muck (Kit Harington); Jimoh is Kwabena Bannerman, a trader; and James-Kelly plays Jennifer Bevan, a newly promoted Minister. They join previously announced Max Minghella and returning stars Myha’la, Marisa Abela, Kit Harington, Ken Leung, Sagar Radia, and Miriam Petche.
What This Means Now: The addition of these new characters signals fresh storylines and potential conflicts within the cutthroat world of international finance. The show continues its commitment to combining established names with rising talent.
The Bigger Picture: Industry, created by Mickey Down and Konrad Kay, has earned praise for its realistic portrayal of the pressures and dynamics within the financial sector. HBO and the BBC’s renewal for a fourth season reflects the show’s continued success and audience appeal. The series is produced by Bad Wolf, and airs on the BBC in the UK and HBO in the US.
