Industry is back this January with new rivalries and global ambition

Industry is back. The hit drama from creators Mickey Down and Konrad Kay returns to BBC iPlayer and BBC One from Friday 12th January, with season four promising another high-stakes ride through London’s finance world – and beyond.

Now firmly established at Pierpoint, Harper (Myha’la) and Yasmin (Marisa Abela) are drawn into a globe-spanning game of power and ambition when a fintech giant bursts onto the scene. Yasmin’s entanglement with tech founder Sir Henry Muck (Kit Harington, returning from season three) deepens, while Harper is pulled into the orbit of enigmatic executive Whitney Halberstram (Max Minghella).

The new season sees friendships tested, power plays escalated, and ambition reaching breaking point. Returning cast members include Ken Leung, Sagar Radia, Toheeb Jimoh, and Amy James-Kelly, with newcomers Kiernan Shipka, Kal Penn, Charlie Heaton, and Claire Forlani joining the ensemble.

Industry is produced by Bad Wolf for HBO and the BBC, with episodes airing weekly in the UK. The series launches on HBO and Max in the US from 11th January.
