The Shelby clan is gearing up for another round of gangster drama, but this time, it's headed to the big screen. Fans of the hit series *Peaky Blinders* can look forward to the return of Cillian Murphy as the indomitable Tommy Shelby in a new film, which will be coming to Netflix in association with BBC Film. The film marks a thrilling continuation of the beloved series, which captivated audiences across six seasons with its gritty portrayal of the Shelby family's rise in post-World War I Birmingham.

Joining Murphy in this highly anticipated film are none other than Barry Keoghan and Rebecca Ferguson, adding even more star power to an already stellar cast. Keoghan, known for his striking performances in *Saltburn* and *The Banshees of Inisherin*, brings his unique intensity to the *Peaky Blinders* universe, promising to add a new layer of intrigue to the story. Ferguson, a fan favorite from *Dune* and the *Mission: Impossible* series, is also set to make her mark on the film, though details about her role remain under wraps.

Cillian Murphy expressed his excitement about returning to the role that has defined much of his career, stating, "It seems like Tommy Shelby wasn’t finished with me. It is very gratifying to be recollaborating with Steven Knight and Tom Harper on the film version of *Peaky Blinders*. This is one for the fans."

The movie will be directed by Tom Harper, who previously directed episodes of the show’s first season back in 2013. Harper expressed his enthusiasm about revisiting the world of *Peaky Blinders*, saying, "When I first directed *Peaky Blinders* over 10 years ago, we didn’t know what the series would become, but we did know that there was something in the alchemy of the cast and the writing that felt explosive. *Peaky* has always been a story about family — and so it’s incredibly exciting to be reuniting with Steve and Cillian to bring the movie to audiences across the world on Netflix."

The film, which will begin production later this year, is expected to be an epic continuation of the multi-award-winning saga. The series, which took place between 1919 and 1934, followed the Shelby family as they navigated the turbulent landscape of post-war Britain, a world full of social, economic, and political upheaval. With the show's signature mix of historical drama, family loyalty, and raw power struggles, the movie is expected to pick up where the series left off, delivering the same explosive storytelling that fans have come to love.

As the Peaky Blinders movie gears up for production, anticipation is building among fans eager to see how the story will continue on the big screen. With Cillian Murphy leading the charge, alongside new additions Barry Keoghan and Rebecca Ferguson, the film promises to be a worthy successor to the beloved series. Keep your flat caps at the ready — the Shelbys are back, and they're set to take Netflix by storm.
