Harry Lawtey exits HBO's "Industry" before Season 4

Harry Lawtey will not return for the fourth season of HBO's "Industry." The show's creators, Mickey Down and Konrad Kay, cited scheduling conflicts and the completion of Lawtey's character arc as reasons for his exit. Lawtey played Robert Spearing, a banker who evolved throughout the series. His character concluded Season 3 by leaving Pierpoint for Silicon Valley, marking a significant transformation. The creators expressed sadness over Lawtey's departure but noted they would welcome him back if it fit the story. Production for Season 4 begins this week.
