Industry will return to the BBC and iPlayer for a third series. The high-octane drama gives an insider’s view of the blackbox of high finance following a group of young bankers as they forge their identities within the pressure cooker environment and sex and drug-fueled blitz of international bank Pierpoint & Co’s London office.

Kit Harington (Game of Thrones, Gunpowder) will join the cast as Henry Muck, the CEO and Founder of Lumi, an exciting green tech energy company about to go public.

In series three, as Pierpoint looks to the future and takes a big bet on ethical investing, the desk find themselves front and centre in the splashy IPO of Lumi, a green tech energy company – in a story that runs all the way to the very top of finance, media and government.

Industry (8x60’) is created, written and executive produced by Mickey Down and Konrad Kay. The series is a Bad Wolf production for HBO and the BBC and is executive produced by Jane Tranter, Kate Crowther and Ryan Rasmussen for Bad Wolf, and Rebecca Ferguson for the BBC.

Production begins this month in the UK.
