The Shelbys are back as BBC has released the first trailer for the sixth and final season of Peaky Blinders. The series, created by Steven Knight and starring Cillian Murphy as Thomas Shelby, promises an epic conclusion as Thomas’ line up against him in the changing times. Watch the trailer below…
Peaky Blinders season six sees returning cast members Paul Anderson as Arthur Shelby, Sophie Rundle as Ada Thorne, Finn Cole as Michael Gray, Anya Taylor-Joy (The Witch) as Gina Gray and Tom Hardy as Alfie Solomons. Also starring is Brian Gleeson as Jimmy McCavern, Neil Maskell as Winston Churchill and Sam Claflin as Oswald Mosley. New cast members include James Frecheville (Animal Kingdom), Conrad Khan (The Hunstman: Winter’s War) and Amber Anderson (Emma.).
Despite the release of the trailer, there is still no indication as to whether Helen McCrory’s Aunt Polly Gray will be featured in the final series after the actor sadly passed away earlier this year. Creator Steven Knight has previously stated that there will be a tribute to McCrory but didn’t clarify as to whether she had filmed any scenes before her death.
The award-winning series began in 2013 and follows the rise and growth of the Peaky Blinders gang led by Tommy Shelby (Cillian Murphy) during the first half of the 20th Century in Birmingham, England. While the series is set to end, Knight has confirmed that the story of the Peaky Blinders will continue in film form.
Peaky Blinders will premiere in early 2022.
