The long-awaited Peaky Blinders movie, Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man, is coming to theaters this weekend. This is where, when and how to watch the new film, starring Cillian Murphy.
Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man will be released in movie theaters across the country on Friday, March 6th. Season 6 of Peaky Blinders came out in 2022. Since then, there have been strong rumors about a potential follow-up film, rather than another season of the show. Cillian Murphy, who stars as Tommy Shelby in the series, made it clear that he wouldn’t return unless there was a strong idea for a movie, led by the show’s creator, Steven Knight.
There is a decent time jump from the end of Peaky Blinders to Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man. The movie will take place during World War II, when Tommy Shelby is forced to come out of seclusion to help out in recently bombed Birmingham. Shelby will be attempting to help England in the midst of World War II, in addition to returning to his old community to help them through this challenging time.
Which Peaky Blinders characters are returning for Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man?
Fans of the series were delighted to hear that Steven Knight did write a screenplay for the movie that convinced Murphy to return to the character one more time. The movie will be directed by Tom Harper. There will be several key characters returning from the series besides Tommy Shelby, most notably Sophie Rundle as Shelby’s sister, Ada Thorne, Ned Dennehy as Charlie Strong, Ian Peck as Curly, Packy Lee as Johnny Dogs and Stephen Graham as Hayden Stagg.
In addition to the return of some fan-favorite characters, there will be several new characters played by prominent actors. Barry Keoghan, Rebecca Ferguson and Tim Roth will all be playing pivotal roles in the film. It has been confirmed that Keoghan will be playing Tommy Shelby’s son.
Some of the key characters that aren’t expected to be returning are Paul Anderson as Arthur Shelby, Harry Kirton as Finn Shelby, Finn Cole as Michael Gray, Anya Taylor-Joy as Gina Gray, Natasha O’Keeffe as Lizzie Shelby and Tom Hardy as Alfie Solomons. This is a combination of actors that didn’t want to be a part of the project and characters written out intentionally by Steven Knight.
