As a seasoned gamer of the high-stakes world of corporate finance dramas, I must say that the Industry Season 3 finale was nothing short of a rollercoaster ride. The abrupt sale of Pierpoint & Co., the heart-wrenching goodbyes, and the unexpected twists have left me on the edge of my seat, pondering the future of this gripping series.
The final episode of Season 3 for “Industry” concludes with dramatic, almost climactic alterations across various storylines. These transformations are so profound and abrupt that it leaves one wondering about the fate of Pierpoint and what direction the series might take in the future. The masterminds behind Industry, Mickey Down and Konrad Kay, have shed light on the events of the thrilling Season 3 finale and hinted at the topics to be explored in the upcoming Season 4.
Industry creators address Season 3 finale’s ending and how Season 4 will continue
In the final episode of Season 3, the main location for the show Industry, Pierpoint & Co., a fictional investment bank, gets purchased by Al-Mi’raj Holdings, a private equity firm that functions as a sovereign wealth fund. As a result, they ceased operations in the London and Zurich branches’ sales and trading departments, instead focusing on managing the personal wealth and assets of Al-Mi’raj’s partners.
Reflecting on a recent conversation, Down and I discussed the dramatic choice to destroy Pierpoint in our series. “To be honest,” he shared with Variety, “we were still arguing about it until the very last minute in the writers’ room.” I can’t quite recall how the concept of blowing up Pierpoint initially surfaced, but during the early stages, we definitely questioned our decision, wondering if we were on the right path. We had a back-and-forth with our producers and HBO, who assured us, ‘This is the heart of our show.’
Down went on to say, “Just as Konrad mentioned, there’s an excitement in the possibility of destroying everything, and that’s something we enjoy. We often find ourselves in challenging situations, only to find our way out. We appreciate the flexibility that allows the show to change drastically from one season to another. This idea was us posing a question: ‘If we were to return, what new direction would we take?’ Once we presented it like that, HBO responded with, ‘Go ahead and do it.’
In the final episode of Season 3, Eric (Ken Leung) plays a pivotal part in the sale of Pierpoint, but he deceives his terminally ill friend Bill Adler and receives a $20 million payout. On a different note, Yasmin (Marisa Abela) departs from finance, gets engaged to Henry Muck (Kit Harington), a British aristocrat planning to enter politics. Furthermore, Harper (Myha’la Herrold) chooses to return to New York and manage an all-shorts fund. Robert Spearing (Harry Lawtey) begins gathering funds for a startup, while Vinay takes the life of Rishi’s wife.
Kay shared that they aimed to present a thoroughly comprehensive narrative in Season 3 without considering Seasons 4 and 5, as HBO has already renewed Industry for its fourth season earlier this month. Interestingly, Kay also provided some insights about what fans might anticipate in the upcoming fourth season. (Based on information from Deadline)
Kay commented, “If we return for Season 4, it’s as if we must play in a new sandbox.” Now that the show has been renewed, he shared, “We are currently developing the first two episodes, and it feels liberating to us. We no longer feel the need to return to the trading floor. Instead, it seems the show is operating at an entirely different level,” he concluded.
