(Warning: Spoilers for the Season 3 of Industry.)
Kit Harington is no stranger to playing a character with the weight of the world on his shoulders, having spent eight seasons navigating the treacherous Westeros terrain in Game of Thrones. But Sir Henry Muck’s fancy title on HBO’s high-octane finance drama Industry opens way more doors without the same branding issues as the bastard Jon Snow. Despite some catastrophic events during his company’s splashy IPO launch, Sir Henry lives to see another day as the king of his green-tech energy Lumi castle.
Kicking off where the premiere ended, Industry proves that even at an early juncture, the third season has zero interest in slowing down. Sir Henry was only introduced last week, but his “doing it for the people” schtick is already wearing thin with everyone in his orbit. “You’re just like every other overqualified, underdeveloped, parentally backstopped child. Your wins are yours, and your losses? Well, they’re someone else’s problem,” says Robert Spearing (Harry Lawtey).
