The star-studded comedy drama become one of the platform's biggest hits of 2024 after it reached a whopping 44million views in just four weeks. 

And with less than two months until the series 2 launch on September 3, the  hit is back with the trailer featuring a first glimpse of the world-renowned Lake Maggiore, where part of the new series is set.

The series marks 's acting debut as she features for a split second in the new trailer as Theo James asks her: 'How do you do?' and she replies: 'I do very well'. 

Maya steps into her role as the glamorous wife of one of Theo James' on-screen associates in the show. 

Taking to Instagram to share her excitement, Maya penned: 'It's cominggggggg, gassed seeing my little head in the trailer'. 

The series picks up one year since Eddie Halstead () and Susie Glass (Kaya Scodelario) joined forces to work together in Bobby Glass' (Ray Winstone) criminal empire overseas. 

As they drive to expand their enterprise, the decisions Bobby is making seem to be increasingly unsound. 

'Now Eddie and Susie must decide whether to take action or risk losing it all, but unfettered ambition never ends well.'

Also returning for series two are stars Vinnie Jones, Daniel Ings, Ruby Sear and Joely Richardson. 

Full of car chases, violence and glamour, the trailer ends with Eddie telling Susie: 'I have a clear idea of what I want these days.... Everything.'

Theo plays aristocrat Eddie Halstead in the series as his estate turns into a hub of unexpected crime after it's revealed his father had been keeping a huge secret.

And speaking about the new series last year he gave a sneak peek at what will be coming up in the next instalment.

He told The Times: 'We've been trying to build on what we did in the first season but make the world bigger, darker.

'It's still comedic, hopefully, but I think it's a little richer in terms of the story.'

Also joining the cast for the new season is Downton Abbey's Hugh Bonneville, who is best known for playing Robert Crawley in ITV drama.

And according to The Sun, the identity of Hugh's character will remain under wraps, with an insider telling the publication: 'It was pretty obvious that Hugh's new character plays a pivotal role in the story that runs through the drama's second outing.

'Though it's a bit of a surprise to see someone in a gangster thriller who's used to playing wholesome figures in shows like Downton Abbey and the Paddington movies.

'But it's fair to say with his giant head of grey hair and thick black glasses they've given him a very distinctive new look.'

The Gentlemen is based on Guy's 2019 film of the same name which starred Matthew McConaughey, Michelle Dockery and Hugh Grant.

Many fans rushed to review site Rotten Tomatoes to give their praise following the show's first series.

It has received 75 per cent on the Tomatometer and 83 per cent on the Popcornmeter.

Meanwhile one said on IMBD: 'The best thing Netflix has produced in a very long time.'

'Well worth a watch - instant classic. Guy Ritchie making a series is just a wonderful thing. 8 pockets of brilliance, almost like 8 movies in one.'

'I couldn't stop binging this! It's a funny and wild ride with an ensemble cast. Theo James was born to play this role and I couldn't help thinking he would make a great Bond, especially after episode 2.

'Kaya Scodelario is brilliant as the steely Susie Glass. The comic timing of the whole cast is pivotal in making this so watchable.'
