“The Gentlemen” is a Guy Ritchie project — of course, style is substance. And nowhere is that more powerful than in the clothes worn by the Horniman family.
Set in the same world as Ritchie’s 2019 film of the same name, the Netflix series places Theo James’ Eddie Horniman — newly minted as a duke and the surprising heir to his father’s estate — in the midst of tense negotiations with a slew of increasingly baffling questionable characters. (A shootout in an upper-class neighbor’s secret vault is a series highlight.) Disconcerted to find out that his father allowed a marijuana farm to flourish on their property under the watchful eye of Susie Glass (Kaya Scodelario), Eddie initially tries to extricate himself from the agreement before circumstances force him to engage in the admittedly ungentlemanly life of a gangster. And through it all, the Hornimans remain iconoclastically stylish.
