The highly anticipated PEAKY BLINDERS film has completed filming, with Cillian Murphy returning as Tommy Shelby. The movie, titled THE IMMORTAL MAN, brings together both familiar faces and new talent under the direction of Tom Harper, who previously directed episodes in the show’s first season.

The production brings together Cillian Murphy reprising his role as Tommy Shelby, Barry Keoghan joining in an undisclosed role, and Rebecca Ferguson as part of the confirmed cast. Tom Harper takes the helm as director, while series creator Steven Knight pens the screenplay.

The project has strong ties to the original series, with Murphy, Knight, Caryn Mandabach, and Guy Heeley serving as co-producers. Murphy, fresh off his Oscar win, expressed enthusiasm about returning to the role, stating, It seems like Tommy Shelby wasn’t finished with me… This is one for the fans.

Netflix announced the completion of filming by sharing a behind-the-scenes photo featuring Cillian Murphy and Barry Keoghan, wishing the cast and crew a happy festive break.
