Girls star Zosia Mamet is returning to HBO, joining the cast of Industry for the financial thriller’s upcoming fifth and final season.
She will play Carmen Dame, a fitness influencer turned wellness tech founder and CEO. Filming on the eight-episode final installment of the Bad Wolf-produced HBO/BBC drama is set to begin the first week of August in the UK.
After its breakthrough first season, Industry, which started off under the radar with a cast featuring largely young, unknown actors alongside Ken Leung, started to add big names each year: Jay Duplass (Season 2), Kit Harington (S3), Max Mingella, Kieran Shipka, Charlie Heaton and Claire Forlani (S4).
In Season 4, at the top of their game and living the lives they set out to have as Pierpoint grads, Harper (Myha’la) and Yasmin (Marisa Abela) are drawn into a high stakes, globetrotting cat-and-mouse game when a splashy fintech darling bursts onto the London scene. As Yasmin navigates her relationship with tech founder Sir Henry Muck (Harington) and Harper is pulled into the orbit of enigmatic executive Whitney Halberstram (Minghella), their twisted friendship begins to warp and ignite under the pressure of money, power, and the desire to be on top.
