AMC Drops a Brutal New Gangs of London Trailer

AMC is importing the dark British crime drama Gangs of London, and this new short trailer shows us a glimpse at just how brutal a show this is. Not only do we see the powerful London crime boss Finn Wallace (Colm Meaney) getting shot square in the face, creating a power vacuum and setting off a struggle for dominance, but we also see his son Sean (Joe Cole, Peaky Blinders) set a man on fire and throw them off a building, insisting he is "not interested in peace."

Gangs of London premieres April 4 on AMC.
