Actor Reconciles With Producers for Crime Series Season 3

The lead actor met with producers in London to resolve reported on-set disagreements that occurred during filming of Season 2 of the Paramount+ crime series. Writer and executive producer Jez Butterworth, executive producer David Glasser, and executive producer and director Guy Ritchie participated in the meeting, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The outlet reported Wednesday that the actor, who plays fixer Harry Da Souza for the London-based Harrigan crime family, is now described as "back in the fold" for a potential third season.

2 filming concluded in May, with a premiere planned for later this year. Paramount+ has not announced a third season, though production is targeted to begin in the fall. Reports of tension first appeared in May, citing instances of the actor arriving late to set and remaining in his trailer. Additional accounts described requests for script changes and concerns over production delays.

Mirren posted on Instagram on May 28 expressing support for the actor and noting differences in working styles. " Earlier statements from Butterworth indicated the character survives the events of Season 1 and remains central to the story. Butterworth also expressed interest in continuing the series as long as it engages audiences.
