MobLand Debuts on Paramount+ with Star-Studded Cast and Gritty Crime Drama
The new series, featuring Tom Hardy and directed by Guy Ritchie, explores a violent feud between London crime families but faces criticism for its reliance on familiar tropes.
- MobLand premiered today, March 30, 2025, on Paramount+, introducing the Harrigan and Stevenson crime families locked in a deadly turf war.
- Tom Hardy stars as Harry Da Souza, the Harrigan family's fixer, whose calm, commanding presence has been widely praised by critics.
- The disappearance of Richie Stevenson’s son, last seen with Eddie Harrigan, serves as the central mystery driving the escalating gang conflict.
- The series, originally conceived as a Ray Donovan spin-off, was reimagined as a standalone crime drama with a polished production and high-profile cast.
- While performances by Hardy, Pierce Brosnan, and Helen Mirren have been lauded, early reviews critique the show for its lack of originality and depth.
