HBO Unveils Official Trailer for ‘Industry’ Season 3 (TV News Roundup)

As a seasoned entertainment journalist with over a decade of experience under my belt, I’ve seen it all – from blockbuster movie premieres to the rise and fall of once-beloved celebrities. But one thing that always stands out to me is the resilience and determination of individuals in the industry.


As a dedicated fan of HBO’s hit series “Industry,” I couldn’t contain my excitement when I heard that the trailer for Season 3 had been released! With stars like Myha’la, Marisa Abela, Harry Lawtey, and Ken Leung gracing our screens once again, I can hardly wait for the new episodes.

In the preview, there’s a hint of blossoming romance between Yasmin (played by Abela) and Sir Henry Muck (acted by Kit Harington). Along with that, there are indications of a fabricated financial scandal.

In Season 3 of the finance show, Pierpoint ventures into ethical investments, and Yasmin, Robert, and Eric become key players in Lumi’s IPO, a green tech energy company headed by Sir Henry Muck (Kit Harington). After departing from Pierpoint, Harper longs to re-enter the financial world and forms an unexpected alliance with Petra Koenig from FutureDawn.

In the latest additions to the cast are: “Game of Thrones” actor Kit Harington, Emmy-nominated “Barry” star Sarah Goldberg portraying Petra Koenig, Miriam Petche joining as Sweetpea Golightly, Andrew Havill taking on the role of Lord Norton, Roger Barclay playing Otto Mostyn, Fady Elsayed bringing Ali El Mansour to life, and Fiona Button assuming the character of Denise Oldroyd.
