The star-studded organized crime series from filmmaker Guy Ritchie has landed on a title, as well as a premiere date on Paramount+.
The drama is called MobLand, and it will debut March 30 on Paramount+ in the United States, Canada, U.K. and Australia, with other markets to follow later in the year. It’s a fairly quick turnaround for the show, which was announced (and in production) in late November.
MobLand centers on an Irish crime family based in London, with Brosnan playing the head of the family, Conrad Harrigan. Mirren — who also stars in Paramount+’s Yellowstone prequel 1923 — plays family matriarch Maeve Harrigan, Conrad’s wife. Hardy plays Harry Da Souza, the Harrigans’ fixer.
