Sign in to your ScreenRant account Warning: Mild SPOILERS lie ahead for MobLand season 2!EXCLUSIVE: Maeve has some very intricate plans for Eddie and Gina in MobLand season 2. Helen Mirren's Harrigan family matriarch held a close affinity for Anson Boon's youngest son of the crime family in season 1, all the more evidenced by her support of his killing Tommy Stevenson and nearly inciting a war between the two families. However, by MobLand season 1's ending, Eddie and Maeve's dynamic had found itself on troubled ground, in part due to her jealousy of his relationship with Teddie Allen's Gina, as well as keeping it a secret that Pierce Brosnan's Conrad was actually his father. Coming into MobLand season 2, things have changed for all three characters. Gina, frustrated by her mom and dad's toxic relationship and wishing the climactic stabbing resulted in Tom Hardy's Harry dying, has left home and taken up with Eddie, with the pair starting a business of shaking down rich Internet streamers. Maeve, meanwhile, is still eagerly attempting to invigorate Conrad's trigger-happy old ways, and slowly trying to phase Harry out from the proceedings. In honor of the show's premiere, ScreenRant's Grant Hermanns interviewed Helen Mirren, Teddie Allen and Anson Boon to discuss MobLand season 2. When asked about how the new season turns Eddie into a more composed, game-planning figure compared to his reckless behavior in the Guy Ritchie-produced show's debut, Boon called it "so nice as an actor" to get to be able to develop and evolve the Harrigan character's personality, particularly for the already-confirmed season 3: Anson Boon: So, yeah, he definitely felt invincible throughout the first season, and that manifests in the way he walks and talks and everything. I really wanted to come into the second series and explore how that changes his voice and his physicality, because he goes from up here [holds his hand high] mentally to down here [holds his hand lower], as he finds out obviously these revelations about his family. It was really fun to be able to explore a totally different side to the character, to be honest. And now, even though he's not speaking to as many members of his family, he's much more open with one individual, the character that Teddie plays, Gina. So it's nice to see him be a little bit more open, and maybe a little bit vulnerable. For Allen, she explained that by MobLand season 1's ending, Gina had the "not-so-nice realization" that the criminal underworld she's "been plonked in" due to her father's job as the Harrigan family fixer is "really difficult to get out of." As such, going into season 2, Gina is going down a path of "making do with what she can" and is "trying to take her own power" without the need of the Harrigans or her father's help: Teddie Allen: But I think her life with them is so much more entwined than maybe she realizes, at first. So as we go along, we see her feeling more and more trapped, or claustrophobic, or lost, and exploring that life of crime. But while Eddie and Gina are feeling confident after months of success with their new business, the one hurdle facing them going forward is still Maeve, as MobLand season 2 continues to show her wanting Eddie to cut off ties from her. When asked about the motivation behind this, and potential compareisons between them and Conrad and Maeve, Mirren confirmed that the latter is still "very jealous of Gina," with the Harrigan matriarch being "very nervous of this female energy" that she instills in Eddie's life. That being said, the Oscar winner also teased that Maeve won't give up on her secret plans for Eddie, even if it comes at the cost of dealing with a character that routinely goes against them: Helen Mirren: She knows that when problems explode, it's often cherchez la femme. You know, when you look into the story, there is a woman at the back of it, or a reason for it...I think she severely misunderstands or underestimates Gina's character. And I suspect we're going to see an awful lot more of Gina somehow. Pierce Brosnan: I think more colors will be revealed. Helen Mirren: Yeah, exactly, I think she's going to reveal herself as the snake that Maeve thinks she is, that sort of thing. But for now, she just doesn't want any other female influence over her grandson, who's actually not her grandson. [Chuckles] Though offering a slightly different side of the character, the MobLand season 2 premiere and marketing has still showcased Eddie and Gina as atypical young adults making their own stamp on the criminal underworld. From making their targets those their parents wouldn't think to eye for money-making, to still enjoying the club party scene with their proceeds, the pair are very much becoming the show's own Bonnie and Clyde.

ATaylor Sheridan BDavid Chase CKurt Sutter DTerence Winter ✓ Correct! Taylor Sheridan, the powerhouse behind Yellowstone, Mayor of Kingstown, 1883, and Lioness, created Mobland. Sheridan has built a television empire centered on morally complex characters navigating violent worlds — and Mobland fits perfectly into that wheelhouse. ✗ You’ve been made! The answer is Taylor Sheridan. The Yellowstone creator has been one of the most prolific showrunners in television, with multiple series running simultaneously across Paramount+. David Chase created The Sopranos, Kurt Sutter created Sons of Anarchy, and Terence Winter created Boardwalk Empire.

AKansas City BTulsa, Oklahoma CNashville DAlbuquerque ✓ Correct! The character is exiled to Tulsa, Oklahoma, a fish-out-of-water setup that creates both comedy and tension as a New York mob boss tries to build a criminal empire in unfamiliar territory. The collision between East Coast mob culture and Oklahoma is central to the show’s identity. ✗ You’ve been made! The answer is Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Stallone plays Dwight “The General” Manfredi, a New York Mafia capo who took the fall for his boss and served 25 years in prison without snitching. Upon release, instead of being rewarded, he’s sent to Tulsa — which he turns into an opportunity rather than a punishment. ✗ You’ve been made! The answer is Dwight “The General” Manfredi. The nickname speaks to his commanding presence and strategic mind.

AAndrea Savage BKelly Reilly CJennifer Aniston DWilla Fitzgerald ✓ Correct!

AMusical numbers BFound-footage documentary style CSupernatural horror elements DDark comedy and fish-out-of-water humor ✓ Correct! Mobland blends crime drama with surprisingly effective dark comedy. Stallone’s Dwight navigating Tulsa’s culture — from marijuana dispensaries to horse country — creates a fish-out-of-water dynamic that’s both charming and funny, giving the show a lighter touch than typical mob fare. ✗ You’ve been made! The answer is dark comedy and fish-out-of-water humor. What makes Mobland stand out in the crowded mob genre is its willingness to be funny.

Maeve is shown still supporting Eddie's endeavors, including taking a cut of his and Gina's earnings from their shakedowns, and should she threaten to pull that support entirely, he may find his allegiances torn. What is currently still unclear is what exactly Maeve has planned for both Eddie and Gina going through the rest of MobLand season 2. Though clearly wanting to get Gina out of Eddie's life, Maeve has proven to simultaneously be ruthless and cunning in getting her way, and as such may resort to more violent measures in order to finally be the only female presence in his life. Plus, with the secret out that she is not Eddie's biological grandmother, the character may have more in mind than just setting him up for taking Conrad's place as the Harrigan family boss.
