Ahead of season 2's shoot, Hardy shared in a statement: "Helping Gareth [Evans, creator] and the team bring the first series of Gangs of London kicking, screaming and exploding to life was an invigorating high-dive into the world of cinematic television.
"I am beyond proud of the BAFTA nominations the show has received, it is a real tribute to the incredible cast and crew and all round team effort.
"The audience response to Gangs of London was phenomenal and so it's an honour to be handed the reigns for series two to continue building our (under)world and get to tell the next chapter of this action-packed and emotional crime saga, which, if you've been watching so far, you'll know, is about to kick off for real."

Meanwhile, Evans also voiced his excitement for the next load of episodes.
"Working alongside such a talented team of creative collaborators made Gangs of London a truly remarkable experience for us," he said. "The intent was always for the show to take the conventions of long-form television and fuse it with a genre filmmaking sensibility. I could not have hoped for a better duo to share directing duties with than Xavier Gens and Corin Hardy.
"Now, as Gangs gears up for series two, myself and Matt Flannery are beyond excited to see what Corin and the team have in store. I have no doubt under his direction the journey for this incredible cast of characters will be a visceral, thrill-ride packed with emotion and bloodshed."
Gangs of London airs on Sky Atlantic. All nine episodes are available to stream on NOW.
