HBO sets the end date for Industry.
HBO has renewed Industry for a fifth and final season. The announcement comes as the drama concludes its eight-episode fourth season this Sunday, March 1, marking the beginning of the end for the series.
Season 4 has continued to build on the show’s momentum, with global viewing pacing roughly 30% ahead of the third season. In the U.S., cross-platform audiences are averaging 1.7 million viewers per episode and growing.
HBO issued the following statement on the decision to end Industry:
“For four seasons, Industry has thrilled us while examining power, money, politics, and class. Under Mickey and Konrad’s ambitious and singular vision, it has solidified itself as an important contemporary, genre-bending drama in HBO’s lineup that keeps viewers on the edge of their seat week after week. It is gratifying that viewers and critics have recognized season four as bigger and more thrilling than ever, buoyed by career defining performances from our magnificent cast. Alongside the amazing team under executive producer Jane Tranter at Bad Wolf and executive producer Kathleen McCaffrey at Little Gems, we are so proud we can announce the fifth season of this terrific show, which Mickey and Konrad have decided will take us to the end of Industry’s story.”
Creators Mickey Down and Konrad Kay added:
“We’re privileged to have joined the small, esteemed club of dramas that have run for five seasons on HBO. This March marks a decade since we first began to conceive of the world of Industry and it exists because of the unwavering faith and vision of our partners and former partners at HBO – Casey, Frannie, Kara, Cela, Sam, Kathleen, and Max. Without Jane Tranter’s imagination and belief, the show would simply be a dead idea in a drawer somewhere. She – alongside her partners at Bad Wolf – has been our guiding light and fiercest champion. We’d also like to thank the BBC for their partnership.
For some time now we have been thinking about how best to end the show on an unparalleled high. Unlike some of our characters, we know when to leave a party. We’d like to thank our evangelical fan base, especially those who have watched from day one. Finally: we owe everything to our crew and the best cast on TV for making our writing live. The characters will live on because of their world class performances. Seeing the HBO ident in front of our work will never stop being a thrill. It remains the best place to make television, and we look forward to continuing our collaboration well into the future.”
Executive producer Jane Tranter, CEO and founder of producer Bad Wolf, said:
“When we first pitched the idea for Industry to HBO, Casey and I believed this might be ‘the little engine that could.’ Over 10 years later, Industry has more than proven this to be true. Mickey and Konrad have magnificently matured a raw, brilliant idea into a bold and uncompromising drama series passionately appreciated by both critics and its fiercely loyal fanbase. It has been loved onto the screen by the ferocious talent of MK, the exceptional executives at HBO and the world-class production team in Wolf Studios Wales, where Bad Wolf has filmed every season. Watching Mickey and Konrad and our extraordinary and beloved cast grow over the seasons continues to be a huge privilege. And now to see Industry take its place among HBO’s most distinguished long-running drama series is to the great credit of them all.”
Season 4 followed Harper and Yasmin as they found themselves at the center of a global power struggle sparked by a rising fintech company, with returning cast including Kit Harington, Ken Leung, Max Minghella and Kiernan Shipka among others.
Industry is slated to return for its fifth and final season in early 2027 on HBO.
