‘Industry’ Season 4 Premiere Viewership Jumps 20% From Season 3

“ Industry ” returned to HBO for its fourth season on Sunday night and reached more than 800,000 viewers in its first three days of availability, marking a 20% increase from the drama series’ Season 3 opener in 2024 and its best season premiere ever. That number was calculated from a combination of Nielsen’s measurement of viewers on HBO’s cable channel and Warner Bros. Discovery’s own data regarding streams on HBO Max , and refers to viewership in the U.S. only. WBD also reports that both in the U.S. and globally, catch-up viewing of “Industry” in the week leading up to the Season 4 premiere was 60% stronger this year than in the week before Season 3 premiered. Popular on Variety Per the official logline, “Industry” is set “in the world of international finance, as seen through the eyes of ambitious twenty-somethings struggling to secure their futures. The series follows a group of young graduates competing for a limited set of permanent positions at a top investment bank in London - but the boundaries between colleague, friend, lover and enemy soon blur as they immerse themselves in a company culture defined as much by sex, drugs, and ego as it is by deals and dividends. As members of the group rise and fall, they must decide whether life is about more than the bottom line.” Season 4 follows Harper (Myha’la) and Yasmin (Marisa Abela) as they “are drawn into a high stakes, globetrotting cat-and-mouse game when a splashy fintech darling bursts onto the London scene. As Yasmin navigates her relationship with tech founder Sir Henry Muck (Kit Harington) and Harper is pulled into the orbit of enigmatic executive Whitney Halberstram (Max Minghella), their twisted friendship begins to warp and ignite under the pressure of money, power, and the desire to be on top.” Mickey Down & Konrad Kay created “Industry” and executive produce alongside Jane Tranter, Kate Crowther and Ryan Rasmussen for Bad Wolf; Kathleen McCaffrey for Little Gems; and Rebecca Ferguson for BBC.
