Buckle up, geeks, because ‘Industry’ Season 3 is here to take you on a wild, wicked ride through the cutthroat world of high finance. Forget the innocent Gen Zers of seasons past, this time they’re embracing their inner Gordon Gekkos and going full-throttle into the moral abyss.
Industry
Sun-Soaked Betrayals and Corporate Claustrophobia
From the opening scene of Yasmin partying on her dad’s yacht, to the tense, dimly lit trading floors of Pierpoint, this season paints a stark contrast between the illusion of freedom and the suffocating reality of the corporate grind.
We watch as Harper, now sharper and more cunning than ever, forges a dangerous alliance at a supposedly ‘ethical’ hedge fund. Robert, the last bastion of decency, finds himself babysitting a volatile billionaire. And Yasmin, grappling with the fallout of her father’s financial crimes, becomes entangled in a twisted relationship that threatens to consume her.
Woke Investing, Toxic Relationships, and the Price of Ambition
‘Industry’ Season 3 doesn’t shy away from hot-button topics like ‘woke investing’, exposing the hypocrisy and contradictions at the heart of the financial world. It’s a show that understands the zeitgeist, weaving in themes of toxic masculinity, generational trauma, and the relentless pursuit of success at any cost.
Character Deep Dives and Stellar Performances
This season gives us a closer look at some familiar faces, like Rishi, whose personal life is unraveling faster than a bad trade. But it’s Yasmin who takes center stage, forced to confront her demons and make a choice: embrace her own power or succumb to the gilded cage of wealth and privilege.
Ken Leung delivers a powerhouse performance as Eric, the ruthless mentor whose hunger for power knows no bounds.And Kit Harington is deliciously devious as the enigmatic Sir Henry Muck.
