First Look at PEAKY BLINDERS Movie Features the Return of Cillian Murphy as Tommy Shelby

Here’s our first look at Steven Knight’s Peaky Blinders movie. One photo features Cillian Murphy back in the role of Tommy Shelby, and the other photo features Knight and Murphy together on the set of the film.

The photo have been released as production in the film has started. Tom Harper is directing the movie from a script written by Knight.

There are still no plot details, but Knight did say at one point that the story would be set during World War II. We’ll just have to wait and see what the story will entail.

Knight talked about the film in the past, saying: “The film, I know exactly what it’s about. And I know what two stories it’s going to tell. What will happen after that, I want that to depend on the film. For all we know somebody is going to pop out – I think I know who it’s going to be.”

Murphy previously said: “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 also stars Rebecca Ferguson, Tim Roth, and Barry Keoghan.
