Pierce Brosnan is set to headline a gripping new crime series for Paramount+, stepping into the role of Conrad Harrigan, the patriarch of a powerful Irish crime family based in London. The upcoming drama will see Brosnan starring alongside Tom Hardy and Helen Mirren in a global crime narrative that promises high-stakes drama and intense family dynamics.
In this Guy Ritchie-created series, Brosnan will portray Conrad Harrigan, the formidable head of a criminal empire with international reach. His character will be married to Maeve Harrigan, played by Helen Mirren, creating a power couple at the center of the story. Tom Hardy rounds out the principal cast as Harry Da Souza, a professional conciliator working directly for the Harrigan family.
The project, currently untitled and set to debut in 2025, represents a return to Brosnan’s dramatic roots. Known for his iconic roles in James Bond and various thriller films, the actor continues to demonstrate his range by diving into another complex criminal narrative. Originally conceived as a RAY DONOVAN spin-off and briefly titled THE ASSOCIATE, the series has evolved into a promising global crime drama.
Paramount+ executives are enthusiastic about the project, with Chris McCarthy praising the combination of exceptional talent both in front of and behind the camera. The series is expected to deliver high-caliber acting and intense storylines that showcase Brosnan’s continued ability to command the screen in compelling dramatic roles.
While details remain limited, the involvement of Guy Ritchie — known for his gritty London crime narratives like THE GENTLEMEN — suggests a series that will blend intricate storytelling with explosive action. For Brosnan, it’s another opportunity to prove why he remains one of Hollywood’s most enduring and versatile actors.
