by

Aimee Lou Wood and Marisa Abela were stand-out stars at the HBO Max launch event in London on Wednesday, both looking incredibly stylish.

Aimiee, 32, wowed in a light blue satin mini dress that showed off her sensational figure.

She teamed the look with black stockings and added inches to her frame with black pointed heels.  

Marisa, 29, stunned on the red carpet in a stylish, one-shoulder dress.

She wore a flowing one-shoulder top with a long black skirt that had a high slit, showing off her leg.

She completed the look with black pointed heels and kept her accessories to a minimum.

The pair appeared in great spirits as they posed for stunning snaps at the star-studded event.

Also in attendance were Matt Smith, James Norton, Jordan Firstman and True Whitaker.

This public appearance follows a recent behind-the-scenes glimpse Marisa and her close friend and co-star, Myha’la, gave fans while celebrating the show’s renewal for a fifth season.

The creators of the HBO/BBC financial drama have announced that the upcoming season will be the last, stating they want to finish while the show is still successful.

Marisa was thrilled to hear they were starting filming again and shared some photos with the cast and creators of the show.

Marisa announced the final season of the show with a post saying, ‘Industry hive… Industry five!!! Let’s do this!’ followed by crying face emojis.

Other pictures captured them playfully pretending to be walruses with wooden chopsticks in their mouths, and looking cool while lounging in a car.

Several of the photos included the show’s creators, Mickey Down and Konrad Kay.

The creators shared their excitement online about the show being renewed for a fifth season, saying they were proud to join the select group of HBO dramas that have reached that milestone.

It’s been ten years since we first started developing INDUSTRY, and it wouldn’t exist without the continued support and foresight of our partners – past and present – at HBO, including Casey, Frannie, Kara, Cela, Sam, Kathleen, and Max.

Without Jane Tranter’s vision and support, this show would never have been made. She and her team at Bad Wolf have been incredible guides and advocates for us throughout the entire process. We’re also grateful to the BBC for their collaboration.

We’ve been carefully considering how to conclude the show at its peak. We believe in knowing when it’s time to move on, unlike some of the characters in the series.

We’re incredibly grateful for our loyal evangelical viewers, particularly those who have been with us since the beginning. We also want to thank our amazing cast and dedicated crew – they brought our stories to life and made everything possible.

The actors’ incredible performances will ensure these characters are remembered for years to come. We’re incredibly proud to see our work alongside HBO, and it’s still the ideal environment for creating television. We’re excited to continue working with them for a long time to come.

The group of photos featured the recent cast, including Marisa’s co-star Kit Harington, as well as Ken Leung, Sagar Radia, and Myha’la.

Marisa’s post came shortly after the news of the final series was announced by HBO online.

The announcement included a wedding photo of Yasmin and Henry, along with a suspicious image of five lines of white powder and a rolled-up twenty-pound bill.

The caption, read: ‘All lined up. INDUSTRY is officially returning for its fifth and final series.

It comes after Marisa enjoyed a romantic trip to New York with her husband, Jamie Bogyo.

Thirty-one-year-old actor Jamie, known for his work in London’s West End, was seen with his wife, and the couple were affectionate with each other. He was wearing a black wool coat, a yellow beanie, and a red scarf.

The couple, married in September 2025, celebrated with chocolate cake at the elegant Polo Bar, Ralph Lauren’s restaurant.

The couple first connected in 2016 while students at the renowned RADA acting school. They got engaged in July 2024 during a walk in London’s Primrose Hill.

The couple got married in a beautiful manor house in Sussex in September 2025, and celebrated with a lively reception at Soho House in Brighton.

Marisa recently shared that she was diagnosed with thyroid cancer, and she credits Jamie’s support during that difficult time as the reason she realized he was her soulmate.

The actress received a diagnosis of the illness in 2020 when she was only 23 years old. Surgeons then removed the tumor in an eight-hour operation.

Marisa shared on the How To Fail with Elizabeth Day podcast that Jamie was incredibly supportive, and that moment made her realize she wanted to spend the rest of her life with him.

It’s just as important to have someone who celebrates your successes as it is to have someone who supports you through difficult times.

Jamie is wonderful support, both when I’m celebrating successes and going through tough times. He’s my biggest cheerleader, always quick to praise my work, but he’s also there to take care of me when things are difficult.

‘He is the most supportive person in every way and I’m so lucky.’
