#The Shelby Gang Returns For One Last Fight

To this point, almost everything we knew about the upcoming season of “Peaky Blinders” came from an all-too-brief teaser reuniting Tommy Shelby with longtime frenemy, Alfie Solomons (Tom Hardy), who made a shocking return from the dead late last season. A team-up may once again be in the cards, reflecting the seriousness of the threat posed by Oswald Mosley’s unhinged political movement, bringing Nazism to the shores of England. Believe it or not, even Tommy Shelby has his limits. He may have gotten in bed with the fascist leader (pulled straight from the annals of history, no less) in order to further his own interests and that of his family, but the patriarch has finally met his match and reached his limits. The results, well, speak for themselves. Expect plenty of explosive developments to come.

Created and written by Steven Knight (“Locke,” “See,” “Spencer”), “Peaky Blinders” stars Murphy and Tommy Shelby, Paul Anderson as his brother Arthur, Sophie Rundle as his sister Ada, Finn Cole as half-brother Michael, Anya Taylor-Joy as Michael’s girlfriend, and many more. Tragically, Helen McCrory passed away from cancer earlier in 2021, leaving an unfillable gap in the production as the matriarch of the Shelbys, Aunt Polly.

Though this will be the final season of “Peaky Blinders,” fans can look forward to the story continuing on as a feature film, set to release sometime in 2023 or 2024. In the meantime, Season 6 will premiere in early 2022.
