View From the Peak - Everything Coming to Paramount+ in April 2025

 

Who needs to wait for April showers to bring May flowers when Paramount+ content is in full bloom next month! Whether you’re admiring nature’s breathtaking beauty with our refreshed Earthly Adventures collection in celebration of Earth Month; diving into the intricate web of a powerful crime family in the new Paramount+ original series MobLand from Guy Ritchie; or crowding around the TV to stream the NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Championship games - there’s something new and exciting for the whole household to enjoy in April. For a closer look at all the entertainment coming to Paramount+ next month, check out the latest edition of View from the Peak.

IN THE SPOTLIGHT

Joanne Froggatt and Tom Hardy in MobLand   Before April hits the ground running, March leaves a parting gift in the form of MobLand, a high-stakes crime drama helmed by Guy Ritchie with a powerhouse cast including Tom Hardy, Pierce Brosnan, Helen Mirren and Joanne Froggatt. We sat down with Joanne to talk about her role as Jan Da Souza, wife of the Harrigan family fixer, in the forthcoming series. Take a look. In MobLand, you play Jan Da Souza, the wife of Harry Da Souza, played by Tom Hardy. How ingrained is Jan in the dealings of this sprawling crime empire considering she’s married into this syndicate? Jan is very much on the periphery of Harry’s work. She is complicit but doesn’t like to know too much about it. However, as the season unfolds and the war between the two crime families unfolds, Jan gets dragged deeper into the chaos. You played Anna Smith, lady’s maid for the aristocratic Crawley family on Downton Abbey. Though the two series have dramatically different tones, was there any knowledge about navigating complex family power dynamics that you applied to this performance? I can safely say I drew no comparisons between my character in Downton and my character in MobLand. We filmed a lot of dinner scenes in Downton, I filmed one in MobLand and the two were worlds apart. They would have been shocked at Downton Abbey! Was there a unique perspective or experience you can recall that Guy Ritchie brought to the filming process? I was excited to work with Guy Ritchie and thoroughly enjoyed the process. Guy knows what he wants and knows when he’s got it. I love that decisiveness, as it breeds confidence in everyone on the set. What are you most excited for viewers to see play out in MobLand? I am really excited to see how viewers respond to the unfolding of the series, and the epic storylines that take so many unexpected twists and turns. Don’t miss the premiere of MobLand on Paramount+ this Sunday, March 30
