Peaky Blinders: Casting, Story, Filming… All the information on the sequel to the series

This article will be updated as new information is revealed by the Peaky Blinders film team.

Rated one of the top 10 series of all time by AlloCiné viewers with a rating of 4.5 out of 5, Peaky Blinders is one of the most popular pieces of fiction. Although it will end at the end of its sixth and final season in 2022, the world that Stephen Knight imagined and Cillian Murphy lived in is far from over.

Indeed, the Peaky Blinders feature film, which has been announced for 2021, should see the light of day. The creator of the series has been working on it for quite some time, and this year things are getting a little more concrete. Here’s everything you need to know about the Peaky Blinders movie in the project so far.

Release date: Where and when will the Peaky Blinders movie be released?

Even if we imagine that Stephen Knight’s main intention is to push for a theatrical release of the Peaky Blinders movie, it wouldn’t be surprising if the feature film benefits from a streaming release on Netflix. Indeed, the series is available worldwide on the platform, and it is with the American giant that Stephen Knight has signed two spin-offs that will expand the world of Peaky Blinders.

As for the release date, we shouldn’t expect to see the film until 2025, given that production is set to begin this year, as Stephen Knight explained. Radio Times :

“I’m working on the final details of the script. I’m living a daydream. I’m re-reading everything that’s already been written and I think it’s going to be great. The plan is to start shooting in the middle of ‘2024.’

Movie Description: What is the story of Peaky Blinders movie?

Stephen Knight has shared little about the plot of this long-awaited film, other than that it is “An untold story set during World War II involving the Peaky Blinders”.

It’s interesting how the creator of Peaky Blinders will explore World War II and how the Shelby clan will play into this tragic period of history. Fans are also waiting to know what Tommy Shelby will become after the shocking events at the end of the series and whether he will get the road to redemption mentioned by Steven Knight.

Cast: Who stars in Peaky Blinders?

At this time, none of the actors have officially confirmed their participation in the casting of this Peaky Blinders movie. But the only one who has spoken publicly and positively is Cillian Murphy, Thomas Shelby’s translator.

Without confirming the participation, the actor explained BBC Radio 4 : “If there’s more of a story to tell, and if Stephen Knight delivers a good script like he usually does, then I’ll be there. I mean, if we want to see 50-year-old Tommy Shelby, I’ll be there. We’ll do it.”

All that remains for Stephen Knight is to submit his script and convince Cillian Murphy to take part in the adventure, because it is difficult – but not impossible – to imagine a Peaky Blinders movie without an Irish actor.

Other actors who may also return for this feature include Paul Anderson (Arthur Shelby), Sam Claflin (Oswald Mosley), Sophie Rundle (Ada Shelby), Amber Anderson (Diana Mitford), Stephen Graham (Hayden Stagg) and Tom Hardy (Alfie Solomons).

A certain Tom Holland (Spider-Man) may also be cast. The British actor auditioned for the series at the time, but was not selected. After studying this, Steven Knight invited the star to participate in a feature film. Will Tom Holland answer the call?
