Since June 9, SkyShowtime subscribers can enjoy Mobland, a series starring Tom Hardy that tells the story of the conflict between two mafia families and a fixer who finds himself caught in the middle of the drama. The series has captured the audience’s attention, achieving record viewership numbers and receiving critical acclaim, which has led to its renewal for a second season.
Tom Hardy always delivers
Both series share a common thread, as creator Ronan Bennett is behind both productions, which generates thematic similarities in the realm of organized crime. Additionally, actress Jasmine Jobson appears in the casts of Mobland and Top Boy. However, the differences between the two are notable. While Top Boy offers a raw and realistic portrayal of social issues in London, Mobland delves into a more traditional gangster narrative, sometimes lacking the depth that characterizes Bennett’s series.
Despite the different approaches to the theme of crime, both series promise to keep viewers captivated. Mobland is available on SkyShowtime, while Top Boy can be watched on Netflix, thus ensuring a rich entertainment offering for genre enthusiasts.
