Summary

Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight has announced the highly anticipated film, 'The Immortal Man,' marking the end of the acclaimed series. Cillian Murphy returns as the formidable Tommy Shelby, stating he "can't wait to get started" on this final chapter.
Knight assures that the movie is a standalone experience, viewable even by those unfamiliar with the previous six seasons. The narrative is set against the backdrop of World War II, with Tommy drawn from his self-imposed retirement to confront a plot threatening the British economy.
Tommy Shelby, weary from past battles, is found in seclusion but is compelled to act when his son, Duke (Barry Keoghan), becomes entangled in a dangerous scheme. The film explores the complex relationship between father and son, hinting at a mirrored destiny.
The movie's origins stem from Knight's personal connection to Birmingham's history, including a bombing raid that tragically impacted his own family. This event is honored within the film's narrative.
Knight is also set to reinvent James Bond for Amazon. "Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man" is currently in cinemas and will stream on Netflix from March 20, 2027.
