The Gentlemen Series 2 Odds: David Beckham And Rosamund Pike Among Cameo Contenders
Inspired by the Guy Ritchie movie of the same name, Netflix series The Gentlemen was yet another hit for the streaming giant this year.
Following such success, Netflix recently confirmed there will be a second season of Ritchie's action-comedy show, and as a result there has been plenty of anticipation on UK betting sites about who might make a celebrity cameo.

Some of the stars of the big screen version have been tipped up to appear in a second series of the show, or will Ritchie look to some safe pairs of hands he has previously directed?
This worked wonders in series one, with Snatch star Vinnie Jones lauded for his portrayal of gamekeeper Geoffrey Seacombe.
Becks To Score Cameo Role?
While one former footballer in Jones has already starred in series one, another is being tipped up on new betting sites for a potential role in season two.
David Beckham is Evens favourite in the male actor market to make a cameo in The Gentlemen's second series.
While he's not a renowned movie or TV star, the former England captain is good pals with Ritchie, and the latter even directed Beckham in his 2017 movie King Arthur: Legend of the Sword.
Charlie Hunnam and Jude Law both featured in the film, and they are 7/2 and 4/1 respectively for Gentlemen guest roles, but 11/8 shot Jason Statham might be a more likely option.
Statham got his big screen break in Ritchie's 1998 movie Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, which also helped to catapult the filmmaker into the big time.
Actor | Odds | Probability |
David Beckham | Evs | 50% |
Jason Statham | 11/8 | 42.1% |
Stephen Graham | 13/8 | 38.1% |
Matthew McConaughey | 2/1 | 33.3% |
Colin Farrell | 5/2 | 28.6% |
Henry Cavill | 3/1 | 25% |
Charlie Hunnam | 7/2 | 22.2% |
Jude Law | 4/1 | 20% |
Jake Gyllenhaal | 9/2 | 18.2% |
Alan Ritchson | 5/1 | 16.7% |
Emmett J Scanlan | 11/2 | 15.4% |
Brad Pitt | 6/1 | 14.3% |
Hugh Grant | 7/1 | 12.5% |
The actor worked with Ritchie again two years later on Snatch, and they have teamed up several times since on the likes of Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre, and Revolver.
Stephen Graham (13/8) is another Ritchie favourite.
He worked closely alongside Statham in Snatch, and he has also starred opposite The Gentlemen series one actress Chanel Cresswell, in the likes of This is England.
With all Graham's links, it would make sense for him to pop up in a second series.
The same goes for 2/1 chance Matthew McConaughey, who played lead character Michael 'Mickey' Pearson in Ritchie's 2019 movie The Gentlemen.
Eiza's Ritchie Return
In the celebrity actress cameo market, Eiza Gonzalez has emerged as the new Evens favourite on specials betting sites.
Gonzalez is fresh from working with director Ritchie on war movie The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, which also featured Man of Steel actor Henry Cavill (3/1) and Reacher star Alan Ritchson (5/1).
Ritchie has been full of praise for Gonzalez since she shot the film, and she and Cavill look set to reunite with Ritchie for his 2025 motion picture In the Grey.
The forthcoming film is also set to star Jake Gyllenhaal (9/2) Emmett J Scanlan (11/2) and British actress Rosamund Pike, who is just 5/4 to land a cameo role in the second series of The Gentlemen.
Actress | Odds | Probability |
Eiza Gonzalez | Evs | 50% |
Rosamund Pike | 5/4 | 44.4% |
Annabelle Wallis | 11/8 | 42.1% |
Michelle Dockery | 6/4 | 40% |
Katie McGrath | 2/1 | 33.3% |
Thandiwe Newton | 3/1 | 25% |
Gemma Arterton | 4/1 | 20% |
Naomi Scott | 5/1 | 16.7% |
Alicia Vikander | 6/1 | 14.3% |
Elizabeth Debicki | 7/1 | 12.5% |
Rachel McAdams | 8/1 | 11.1% |
Hannah Murray | 9/1 | 10% |
Noomi Rapace | 10/1 | 9.1% |
Pike put in a gritty performance in 2023 thriller film Saltburn, which also centred around the goings on at a manor house, much like The Gentlemen series one.
Another actress who could be perfect for a part is Annabelle Wallis (11/8).
She is no stranger to no-nonsense dramas after starring in Peaky Blinders and period drama The Tudors.
Wallis was also directed by Ritchie in 2017's King Arthur: Legend of the Sword.
Pitt To Snatch A Guest Role
Another actor Ritchie knows all about is Brad Pitt.
Next year will mark the 25th anniversary of Snatch, which featured the Hollywood star, and what better way to celebrate than to re-team with Ritchie on another project?
Pitt is 6/1 on betting apps to make a season two cameo in The Gentlemen, while filmmaker Ritchie could even look to some stars from his 2008 movie RocknRolla to make appearances.
If so, Thandiwe Newton and Gemma Arterton, who are 3/1 and 4/1 respectively, could be in contention, as might 8/1 shot Mark Strong.
What's more, Alicia Vikander (6/1), Elizabeth Debicki (7/1) and Hugh Grant (7/1) may also be considered if Ritchie is scouting for talent from his 2015 movie The Man from U.N.C.L.E.
