The Gentlemen Season 2 landed on Netflix on September 3, 2026, sending Eddie Horniman (Theo James) and Susie Glass (Kaya Scodelario) into Italy as their criminal empire grows under Bobby Glass’s (Ray Winstone) increasingly reckless leadership.
Music remains central to the show’s identity this season. Composer Chris Benstead returns with a widened score, while music supervisors Iain Cooke and Ian Neil pull needle drops from Irish folk, Jamaican dancehall, and Italian pop.
This guide covers everything confirmed so far about the Season 2 soundtrack, episode by episode.

The Gentlemen Season 2 Soundtrack Overview
There is currently no official soundtrack album for Season 2. Netflix Music has not announced a score release or a licensed-song compilation as of this writing.
For context, Season 1’s score was released as The Gentlemen (Soundtrack from the Netflix Series) through Netflix Music on March 8, 2024, a day after the show premiered. That album carried 30 of Benstead’s cues across roughly 69 minutes.
Because Season 2 debuted only recently, a similar album announcement may still follow. This page will be updated once one arrives.
Who Composed The Gentlemen Season 2 Soundtrack?
Christopher “Chris” Benstead returns as composer, continuing his role from Season 1 and from Guy Ritchie’s 2019 feature film of the same name.
Benstead is a British composer, arranger, and Academy Award and BAFTA winner for his work as re-recording mixer on Alfonso Cuarón’s Gravity (2013). He holds a First-Class Honours degree in music and sound recording from the University of Surrey.
He is Guy Ritchie’s regular musical collaborator, having also scored Wrath of Man, Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre, The Covenant, and The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare — the last of which earned him an IFMCA Award for Best Original Action/Adventure Score. He also received an HMMA nomination for Fountain of Youth.
Music supervisors Iain Cooke (It’s a Sin) and Ian Neil (Control, Kingsman) return from Season 1 to handle the show’s licensed-song selections.
The Gentlemen Season 2 Official Tracklist
An official tracklist has not been released for Season 2. None of Benstead’s new score cues have appeared on streaming platforms as of this writing, so individual cue titles cannot be confirmed yet.
Listeners looking for Benstead’s established sound can revisit the Season 1 album, which includes cues like “The Gentlemen Titles,” “Halstead Manor,” and “Susie Glass” on Apple Music and Spotify.
This section will be updated the moment a Season 2 score album or tracklist is confirmed.
Score Highlights
Individual Season 2 cue titles are not yet available, so specific highlights can’t be verified. Coverage of the season describes Benstead pairing his established orchestral, choir-driven sound with a broader genre palette to match the show’s move to Italy.
Once cues are released or named by a verified source, this section will list standout tracks with descriptions.
