There is going to be a Peaky Blinders Movie. The continuation of Thomas Shelby’s thrilling saga is now in production. Cillian Murphy is set to reprise his role as the fierce Birmingham gangster, firing up the intense drama fans are familiar with.

The feature film, approved by Netflix in June, is already buzzing with excitement. Here’s who we know is definitely in: Cillian Murphy (as the main character), Rebecca Ferguson (Dune), Barry Keoghan (Saltburn), and Tim Roth (Pulp Fiction). It’s a lineup of talent that’s bound to deepen the story’s themes of morality and redemption.

Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight has shared his excitement, saying, “I’m thrilled to see the cameras rolling on this new chapter of the Peaky Blinders story, set during World War II”. Fans can assume that if the country is at war, the Shelbys certainly are too.

Directed by Tom Harpe, the movie will continue the multi-award-winning, six-season gangster saga. Set in Birmingham, England, from 1919 to 1934, the series followed the Shelby family as they navigated the harsh realities of a post-World War I society.

The last time we saw Thomas Shelby in the season finale, he was on the verge of starting a new life. Fans are left wondering what’s next for him. How will this new movie capture the Shelby Family?
