February 25, 2026

HBO announced today that Industry has been renewed for a fifth and final season. The news comes ahead of this Sunday's season finale. Global viewing for Season 4 is pacing roughly 30% ahead of the third season, with U.S. cross platform viewers averaging 1.7M per episode.

"For four seasons, INDUSTRY has thrilled us while examining power, money, politics, and class," said Francesca Orsi, Executive Vice President, HBO Programming, Head of HBO Drama Series and Films. "Under Mickey and Konrad's ambitious and singular vision, it has solidified itself as an important contemporary, genre-bending drama in HBO's lineup that keeps viewers on the edge of their seat week after week. It is gratifying that viewers and critics have recognized season four as bigger and more thrilling than ever, buoyed by career defining performances from our magnificent cast. Alongside the amazing team under executive producer Jane Tranter at Bad Wolf and executive producer Kathleen McCaffrey at Little Gems, we are so proud we can announce the fifth season of this terrific show, which Mickey and Konrad have decided will take us to the end of INDUSTRY's story."

"We're privileged to have joined the small, esteemed club of dramas that have run for five seasons on HBO," said Mickey Down & Konrad Kay, creators, showrunners, writers, directors, and executive producers. "This March marks a decade since we first began to conceive of the world of INDUSTRY and it exists because of the unwavering faith and vision of our partners and former partners at HBO - Casey, Frannie, Kara, Cela, Sam, Kathleen, and Max. Without Jane Tranter's imagination and belief, the show would simply be a dead idea in a drawer somewhere. She - alongside her partners at Bad Wolf - has been our guiding light and fiercest champion. We'd also like to thank the BBC for their partnership.

For some time now we have been thinking about how best to end the show on an unparalleled high. Unlike some of our characters, we know when to leave a party. We'd like to thank our evangelical fan base, especially those who have watched from day one. Finally: we owe everything to our crew and the best cast on TV for making our writing live. The characters will live on because of their world class performances. Seeing the HBO ident in front of our work will never stop being a thrill. It remains the best place to make television, and we look forward to continuing our collaboration well into the future."

The hour-long series follows a talented group of young graduates who have set out to forge their identities on the Pierpoint & Co. trading floor, competing for a limited number of permanent positions at London's top investment bank. The boundaries between colleague, friend, lover, and rival quickly blur as they immerse themselves in a culture defined not only by deals and the bottom line, but by ego, sex, and drugs.
