By order of the Peaky Blinders…” You can watch the full trailer below.
The movie’s cast includes Hollywood stars Rebecca Ferguson, Tim Roth, Barry Keoghan,
and Stephen Graham. From the original regular cast, Sophie Rundle returns as Ada Thorne, née Shelby, while Packy Lee, Ian Peck, and Ned Dennehy return as Tommy’s allies Johnny Dogs, Curly, and Charlie Strong respectively. Graham’s character, Hayden Stagg, appeared in two episodes of the six series of the show.
Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man will release in UK cinemas on March 6, before arriving on Netflix March 20.
Last October, the BBC announced two more series of Peaky Blinders, focusing on a new cast of characters and set in 1953. “I’m thrilled to be announcing this new chapter in the Peaky Blinders story,” Steven Knight said in a press release. “Once again, it will be rooted in Birmingham and will tell the story of a city rising from the ashes of the Birmingham blitz. The new generation of Shelbys have taken the wheel and it will be a hell of a ride.”
