Netflix has unveiled the first trailer for 'Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man,' bringing back Cillian Murphy as the iconic gangster Tommy Shelby. The film continues the story of Birmingham's notorious Shelby family four years after the series finale. It will hit select theaters on March 6 before streaming on Netflix from March 20.
The trailer for 'Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man' marks the return of the Shelby crime syndicate to the screen, four years after the BBC and Netflix series wrapped up its six seasons in 2022. Created by British screenwriter Steven Knight, the original show premiered on the BBC in 2013 and later gained U.S. distribution through Netflix, chronicling the exploits of the Peaky Blinders gang in post-World War I Birmingham.
Cillian Murphy steps back into the role of Tommy Shelby, the cunning leader of the family. In a statement from June 2024, Murphy expressed enthusiasm for the project: “It seems like Tommy Shelby wasn’t finished with me… It is very gratifying to be re-collaborating with Steven Knight and Tom Harper on the film version of ‘Peaky Blinders.’ This is one for the fans.”
Directed by Tom Harper, who helmed several episodes of the series, the movie features returning cast members including Sophie Rundle as Ada Thorne, Tommy's sister; Stephen Graham as ally Hayden Stagg; and Ned Dennehy as Charlie Strong. New additions to the ensemble are Rebecca Ferguson, Barry Keoghan, Tim Roth, and Jay Lycurgo.
The footage promises high-stakes action, with guns blazing as the Shelbys navigate their scandalous world once more. This cinematic extension aims to satisfy longtime viewers eager for more of the gritty crime drama's narrative.
