HBO's financial drama Industry debuts its third season on Sunday, taking over the network's coveted weekend primetime spot for the first time.

It’s a key position previously occupied by some of HBO’s biggest shows, including Euphoria, Succession, Game of Thrones and the prequel series House of the Dragon. Those are pretty big shoes to fill for the modest series that producer Jane Tranter calls “The Little Engine That Could.”

Tranter, through her production company Bad Wolf, has been at the helm of Industry since its humble beginnings, working with showrunners Mickey Down and Konrad Kay on this niche, hard-hitting drama about a group of recent finance grads thrown into the world of investment banking. The series has never been afraid to take big shots or, as Tranter puts it, “tell the truth, even if that truth is sometimes unpalatable.”

That honesty, Tranter argues, is what has attracted the show’s cult following so far. The hope is that on a bigger stage (i.e. Sunday night) it will grow the audience, but even with the potential for increased viewership for the series, there are no plans to slow down any time soon.
