The notable “Heist” title for 2025 is the British docu-series The Diamond Heist, which premiered on Netflix on April 16, 2025. This three-episode documentary, executive produced by Guy Ritchie, explores one of the biggest heists in British history—the audacious 2000 attempt to steal a near-priceless diamond from the Millennium Dome in London. The criminals planned a dramatic ram-raid and escape by speedboat on the Thames, but were under police surveillance. The series features interviews with key figures involved, including Lee Wenham, a central player from a notorious Gypsy family, offering in-depth insights into the heist’s planning and aftermath. It is directed by Jesse Vile and produced by Lightbox Entertainment, known for other high-profile documentaries.
In addition, there is an upcoming heist drama series titled 12 12 12 set to release in 2025 on Apple TV+. Starring Anthony Mackie and Jamie Dornan, this series follows a disgraced FBI agent and an American career criminal engaged in a cat-and-mouse game across Europe centered on a daring bank vault raid beneath Zurich. The story unfolds across three timelines: the 12 months before, the 12 hours during, and the 12 days after the heist. The show is created by Dudi Appleton and Jim Keeble, with Kari Skogland directing the pilot4.
