With over 6 hours worth of new content, Peaky Blinders released its sixth and final season earlier this year. The season later debuted on Netflix last month which officially marked the end of the TV series. However, as you might already know, even though it is the final season, it’s not the end of Peaky Blinders. It will return one final time as a feature film which will conclude the series. Well, we have some incredible news for the fans who must now patiently wait till the movie arrives.
Peaky Blinders Movie Release Date, Cast, and Filming Locations
It would be this untitled Peaky Blinders film which would act as the finale for our beloved series. In all honestly, a groundbreaking series like Peaky Blinders very well deserves a finale that can be experienced on the big screen. Given the quality of its production, cinematography, soundtrack and what not, it’s something that’s made for theatres not small screen. Anyways, while chatting to British radio station Heart FM, Steven Knight confirmed that he was very close to finishing off the script for the movie.
The movie is set to pick up where we left off at the end of Peaky Blinders season 6 and will enter production “within 18 months”. On the matter Knight said, “We’re going to shoot it at the studios in Digbeth, and on location in Digbeth in Birmingham. Digbeth and Small Heath [are] where the Peaky Blinders actually roamed, so it’s like Peaky’s coming home.”
So, it is quite evident that fans have a long wait ahead of them. ‘Within 18 months’ means that the production of the film will begin earliest by the end of 2023 which means that the film will release sometime towards the end of 2024 (again at the earliest). But the good news is that it is definitely happening, the script is almost ready, and the primary production locations have also been decided upon.
As for the cast, it has been confirmed that most key cast members of the show including Cillian Murphy, Paul Anderson, and Tom Hardy will return for the film. He also stated that he is planning to add “some new faces that will hopefully be quite surprising.” Could one of these new faces be Tom Holland as hinted earlier? That remains to be seen but for now fans will have to settle with this information and brace themselves for a long wait ahead.
