Maya Jama is gearing up for a role in an upcoming Netflix series, sharing the spotlight with stars like Kaya Scodelario and Theo James. The Love Island host has been confirmed to feature in

announced not long after that a follow-up season was in the works. While Maya will be joining the ensemble of The Gentlemen – based on the successful 2020 film – details about her character

in the series remain under wraps. The cast for the sophomore series will also welcome Hugh Bonneville, Benjamin Clementine, Benedetta Porcaroli, Michele Morrone, Sergio Castellito, Amra

Mallassi, and Tyler Conti, reports OK!. Theo James and Kaya Scodelario are set to return to their roles, alongside other familiar faces such as Daniel Ings, Ray Winstone, Joely Richardson,

Vinnie Jones, Jasmine Blackborow, Michael Vu, Harry Goodwins, Ruby Sear, Pearce Quigley, and Giancarlo Esposito. The plot for the second series of The Gentlemen unfolds: "It's been

one year since Eddie and Susie joined forces to work together in Bobby's criminal empire overseas. As they drive to expand their enterprise, the decisions Bobby is making seem to be

increasingly unsound. Now Eddie and Susie must decide whether to take action or risk losing it all, but unfettered ambition never ends well.." Meanwhile, Guy Ritchie expressed his

enthusiasm for the upcoming season of The Gentlemen: "I am delighted to return to set for season two of The Gentlemen. This chapter sees a deliberate expansion, both geographically and

thematically, as we journey from the English countryside to the Italian lakes. "Eddie and Susie find themselves navigating an increasingly volatile empire as they're besieged on

all fronts by an influx of enigmatic new players. The stakes are heightened, the power dynamics are more precarious, and I'm thrilled to be collaborating once again with this

exceptional cast and crew." The announcement of Maya's latest role follows ITV's confirmation of the Love Island 2025 start date. The much-loved ITV2 dating show is set to

make its return on Monday, 9th June, at 9pm, with Maya reprising her role as host. ITV shared the update on Wednesday, 28 May, inviting viewers: "Mark your calendar, you're invited

to this year's hottest meeting. Time: June 9th, 9pm. Venue: Your sofa (via ITV2/ITVX). "Agenda: Initial coupling, strategic navigation of red flags, and identification of

potential long-term partnerships #LoveIsland." _THE GENTLEMEN IS AVAILABLE TO STREAM ON NETFLIX._
