As The Peaky Blinders Movie The Immortal Man Arrives On Netflix, What's Next For The Franchise?

For the first Peaky Blinders movie, The Immortal Man, Netflix went suitably large for Cillian Murphy’s first feature-length outing as Tommy Shelby. 

The big-budget movie, which picks up the story in the Birmingham Blitz of World War Two, seems to have paid off, with the film picking up an increasingly rare box office success as well as critical acclaim. 

After a short run in cinemas, the film has landed on Netflix, with new legions of fans streaming the next chapter.

With six seasons and a film now part of the Peaky Blinders’ legacy, you might be wondering where that leaves the franchise and what’s next for the gang (if anything).

Here’s a quick guide to everything we know so far…

Will there be another Peaky Blinders film after The Immortal Man?

So far, there’s been no confirmation of a The Immortal Man sequel, or indeed another film set in the Peaky Blinders universe. 

Back in 2021 show creator Steven Knight told Deadline the “plan from the beginning” had been to “end Peaky with a movie”. 

Based on how the movie ended, fans can probably agree it’s the last we’ll see of Tommy Shelby – so it would be a surprise if we did see another Peaky Blinders film, at least for the time being. 

What about a new series of Peaky Blinders in the future?

That’s where the good news starts.

In October 2025, Netflix and the BBC confirmed two new six-part sequel series of Peaky Blinders, with original writer and creator Steven Knight behind the wheel once again.

What will the new Peaky Blinders sequel series be about?

Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man acts as a bridge between the initial six series of the show and the new ones.

The sequel series will jump further forward in time and take place after the events of the film, picking the story up in the 1950s.

An official synopsis for the follow-up reads: “Britain, 1953. After being heavily bombed in World War II, Birmingham is building a better future out of concrete and steel.

“In a new era of Steven Knight’s Peaky Blinders, the race to own Birmingham’s massive reconstruction project becomes a brutal contest of mythical dimensions. This is a city of unprecedented opportunity and danger, with the Shelby family right at its blood-soaked heart.”

Meanwhile Knight has promised new characters and adventures, teasing: “The new generation of Shelbys have taken the wheel, and it will be a hell of a ride.” 

When can we see the new episodes of Peaky Blinders?

Netflix hasn’t confirmed a release date yet, however we might not have to wait too long according to What’s On Netflix. 

The online outlet has reported that filming began in Stoke-on-Trent in early March 2026, suggesting a possible mid-to-late 2027 release date.

Who will star in the new Peaky Blinders seasons?

So far, Netflix and the BBC haven’t officially announced any cast members.

We do know that Cillian Murphy is on board as a producer, so perhaps we could see Tommy Shelby in some flashback scenes. 

Reports have suggested that it could be a cast of relative newcomers, with Video Nasty starCal O’Driscoll spotted on set along with How To Get To Heaven From Belfast star Fintan Shevlin and Atomic actor Jacob Wright.

The first six seasons of Peaky Blinders are now streaming on BBC iPlayer, with the film The Immortal Man available to watch on Netflix.
