If you thought the first season of MOBLAND was intense, just wait until you hear what’s coming. The crime drama starring Tom Hardy and Pierce Brosnan is heading back to Paramount+ for a second season, and if the cast’s enthusiasm is anything to go by, it’s shaping up to be something genuinely special.
Actor Emmett J. Scanlan, who plays Paul O’Donnell — head of security to Conrad Harrigan — has been refreshingly candid about what fans can expect, describing the new episodes as “insane,” “bananas,” and “even better” than the first season. That’s a bold claim, considering MOBLAND hit the ground running when it debuted in spring 2025, with its premiere ranking as the second-biggest debut in Paramount+ history. The show’s blend of A-list talent, gritty storytelling, and cinematic production values clearly struck a nerve with audiences, and the platform will be counting on season two to do the same.
Scanlan described the new scripts as “fantastic” and said the intensity of the first season has essentially been taken “on steroids,” adding that he loved every moment of losing himself in the show’s murky criminal underworld. He also had warm words for Pierce Brosnan, calling the veteran actor an “absolute delight” and a personal hero. With filming currently underway and a 2026 premiere on the horizon, MOBLAND season two is shaping up to be one of the year’s most anticipated streaming events.
