AMC Boards Sky Drama ‘Gangs Of London’ After HBO’s Cinemax Pulls Out – Deadline
AMC will air British drama Gangs of London in the U.S. after HBO’s Cinemax dropped out of the project, which has been renewed for a second season.
The series, which was created by The Raid’s Gareth Evans, was originally commissioned by Sky and Cinemax in 2017, as revealed by Deadline. In the subsequent two and a half years, the U.S. pay-TV broadcaster moved out of originals and AMC has now taken the U.S. rights and will become a co-producer of the second season.
The ten-part show, which is produced by Pulse Films in association with Chernobyl producer Sister, was a bit hit for Sky in the UK – it was its biggest premiere streaming series this year and the biggest original drama launch on Sky Atlantic in the past five years.
