‘Industry’
One of HBO’s best — and hitherto under-watched — shows is about to see its stock rise big time this summer. Industry premiered years ago to rave reviews, thanks to its savvy mix of tense drama, dirty sex scenes, and brilliant ensemble cast. The series follows a group of twenty-somethings attempting to break into the financial business at the illustrious Pierpoint & Co. The first season follows American Harper Stern (Myha’la) as she maneuvers her way up the ranks at the London-based banking firm, despite her lowly background. Along the way, she sparks up friendships with ambitious heiress Yasmin (Marisa Abela), pretty party boy Robert (Harry Lawtey), and Robert’s Black, gay, conservative bestie from Oxford, Gus (David Jonsson). From the electrifying pilot, directed by Lena Dunham, Industry excels at pumping up the pressure these characters feel while simultaneously dabbling in debauchery. Buy in on Industry now before it becomes HBO’s next major hit.
