Still in the mood for more Peaky Blinders after season 6? Well, lucky you, as the plan was to make a movie – distributed by Netflix – to wrap everything up. Cillian Murphy is in and was recently joined by Mission: Impossible and Dune’s Rebecca Ferguson. Now, Barry Keoghan is adding even more star power to the ensemble.
The news arrived via Deadline without further details about his role nor Ferguson’s. That said, their inclusion, given how busy they are with big-screen work nowadays, suggests that Tommy Shelby and the Peaky Blinders’ long-running storyline could’ve been saving the best for last.
British director Tom Harper (The Aeronauts, Heart of Stone) is directing the feature, which will be distributed exclusively via Netflix as far as we know. While the idea of making the conclusion to Peaky Blinders a big-screen event could be enticing, the streaming giant has been very adamant about its release strategy, with few movies getting the (limited) theatrical treatment.
