Rebecca Ferguson, known for her roles in Mission Impossible and Dune, has expressed her preference for filming intimate scenes without the assistance of intimacy coordinators. The Swedish-born actress, who stars alongside Cillian Murphy in the upcoming Peaky Blinders film, stated that while she acknowledges the value of such roles, they make her feel uncomfortable due to her own "enormous boundaries" and ability to verbalize them.
Ferguson explained her proactive approach, which involved discussing her methods with Cillian Murphy prior to filming a significant intimate scene. She clarified that her intention was not merely to disrobe but to ensure the scene conveyed a specific moment of release and intimacy, emphasizing the magical quality of such connections.
The film, Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man, is set to be released on Netflix on March 20, 2026, following a limited cinema run starting March 6, 2026. The story picks up four years after the series finale, with Cillian Murphy's character, Thomas Shelby, returning to Birmingham from self-imposed exile during World War II.

New plot details reveal Tommy facing ghosts from his past and confronting adversaries like Hayden Stagg, played by Stephen Graham. Despite being a stranger in his old haunts, loyalties are reaffirmed by characters like Isaiah Jesus. The trailer teases explosive action, suggesting Tommy's return to a world where "nearly doesn't count."
