What Thrilling News! Cillian Murphy Is Tommy Shelby Once Again As Production Begins On ‘Peaky Blinders’ Film Via Netflix.
"Tommy Shelby is back.
Cillian Murphy has reprised his iconic Peaky Blinders role and reunited with Steven Knight, the mastermind behind the hit British gangster drama, in a first-look photo released Monday.
The Peaky Blinders Netflix film, directed by Tom Harper, is officially in production, the streaming giant announced Monday. The film follows a six-season series met with critical acclaim, with Oscar winner Murphy, Paul Anderson, Helen McCrory, Tom Hardy and Joe Cole leading the cast. So far confirmed for the movie are Saltburn‘s Barry Keoghan and Dune‘s Rebecca Ferguson.
“By order of the Peaky Blinders,” it said, “Tommy Shelby is back. Cillian Murphy and Steven Knight are reunited on set as production officially starts on the upcoming Netflix film.” Murphy and Knight were photographed together for the post.
The series first premiered on BBC Two in 2013, though Netflix later acquired the rights to release the show in the U.S.
Knight was tight-lipped about the film’s plot at the Royal Television Society‘s London Convention earlier this month. The writer told the audience: “It’s set in the Second World War and it’s really good.” When the confirmation of the Peaky Blinders film came through, Murphy said in a statement: “This is one for the fans.”
The show culminated with season six in 2022, shortly before the Irishman went on to star in Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer, nabbing an Academy Award.
Murphy’s latest project, Small Things Like These, depicting the horrors of Ireland’s church’s abusive workhouses for unwed mothers, is set for a Nov. 1 release in the U.K., and Nov. 8 in the U.S." - Hollywoodreporter.com
