The Peaky Blinders Movie: The Immortal Man Set for Release
The highly anticipated Peaky Blinders movie, titled ‘The Immortal Man’, is set to hit theaters on March 6, 2026, before becoming available on Netflix starting March 20, 2026. This film marks a significant return to the world of the Peaky Blinders, bringing back familiar faces and introducing new characters against the tumultuous backdrop of Birmingham in 1940 during the Second World War.
In this new installment, Tommy Shelby, portrayed by Cillian Murphy, has been living in self-imposed exile following the events of the show’s finale. As the war unfolds, the narrative explores his struggles and the impact of his absence on the Peaky Blinders gang. Murphy notes, “When you meet him at the beginning of the Second World War, he’s retreated from society.” This sets the stage for a dramatic exploration of his character’s journey.
While Tommy is away, his son, Duke Shelby, played by Barry Keoghan, steps into a leadership role within the gang.
