Industry has set the date for its return, with BBC and HBO unveiling first-look images and fresh casting details ahead of the long-awaited fourth series.
The finance drama set in Canary Wharf picks up with Harper Stern (Myha’la) and Yasmin Kara-Hanani (Marisa Abela) as they enter what the broadcasters describe as a “high-stakes, globetrotting cat-and-mouse game” following their exit from Pierpoint.
Season four will see a number of familiar faces return alongside an array of new cast members.
Max Minghella, best known for The Handmaid’s Tale, joins the ensemble, which also features Myha’la, Marisa Abela, Kit Harington, Ken Leung, Miriam Petche, Sagar Radia, Toheeb Jimoh, Charlie Heaton and Amy James-Kelly.
Further additions include Roger Barclay, Andrew Havill, Kiernan Shipka, Kal Penn, Jack Farthing, Stephen Campbell Moore, Claire Forlani and Edward Holcroft.

HBO confirmed the new season will premiere US on Sunday, 11 January 2026, with episodes released weekly and available to stream on HBO Max.
The BBC will roll out the series on BBC One and iPlayer the same month. Although the broadcaster is yet to release an exact date.
Harper and Yasmin remain at the heart of the eight-episode run, navigating their relentless pursuit of power and influence as a new “splashy fintech darling” disrupts the London market.
According to the official synopsis: “At the top of their game and living the lives they set out to have as Pierpoint grads, Harper (Myha’la) and Yasmin (Marisa Abela) are drawn into a high stakes, globetrotting cat-and-mouse game when a splashy fintech darling bursts onto the London scene.

“As Yasmin navigates her relationship with tech founder Sir Henry Muck (Kit Harington), and Harper is pulled into the orbit of enigmatic executive Whitney Halberstram (Max Minghella), their twisted friendship begins to warp and ignite under the pressure of money, power and the desire to be on top.”
Created, written and executive-produced by Mickey Down and Konrad Kay, Industry is produced by Bad Wolf for HBO and the BBC.
After a gradual climb in viewership, the show’s third season marked a breakthrough, earning a Critics Choice nomination for Best Drama and cementing its place among TV’s most acclaimed series.
Industry season four will air exclusively in the UK on BBC iPlayer and BBC One in January 2026. It will air in the US on HBO Max from January 11, 2026.
