Industry Season 2 on HBO: Trailer, plot and everything we know
HBO dropped the official trailer for the show's second season on July 21, 2022. It offers a peek into the fast-paced, highly competitive world of finance that the show depicts. It looks similar in tone to the first installment, and viewers can expect an equally engaging and entertaining season. One of the highlights from the trailer is Yas imitating Matthew McConaughey's famous chest-thumping scene in Martin Scorsese's The Wolf of Wall Street.
The second season of the series continues the story a year after the events of the first installment. As the young graduates climb the ladder in the immensely competitive corporate world of finance, viewers can expect the show to delve deeper into the workings of the higher management.
One of the major highlights of the last season was Yasmin's breakup with Seb. This season, the show might explore Yasmin's equation with Robert. While it's quite evident that she has no romantic feelings for him, it's difficult to outright deny the possibility of the two ending up together, especially considering how Robert still seems to have strong romantic feelings for her deep down.
The love triangle involving Robert, Harper, and Yasmin is one of the most complicated aspects of the story. With so many plotlines and character arcs left to be explored, it'll be interesting to see how the story pans out in the upcoming season.
