## FAQs

### **Q: Do I need to watch the Guy Ritchie film before starting the Netflix series?**

A: No, the Netflix series is a standalone story set in the same universe as the 2019 film but features entirely different characters and storylines. While watching the film might provide context for Ritchie’s signature style, the series is designed to be fully accessible to new viewers. Season 1 provides all the necessary background you’ll need to jump in.

### **Q: Will all the main cast from Season 1 return for Season 2?**

  
A: Yes, the core trio of Theo James (Eddie Halstead), Kaya Scodelario (Susie Glass), and Daniel Ings (Freddy Halstead) are all confirmed to return. The massive cast expansion with 23 new actors suggests Season 2 will significantly broaden the show’s scope while maintaining the relationships that made Season 1 compelling. The Italian filming locations hint at an international expansion of the storyline.
