Disney+ has released a new batch of promotional images for A Thousand Blows, the hotly-anticipated new series from Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight which takes place in the seedy criminal underbelly of Victorian London and its underground bareknuckle boxing scene and stars Malachi Kirby (Small Axe), Erin Doherty (The Crown) and Stephen Graham (Boiling Point). Check out the new images below, or watch the latest trailer here…
“BAFTA award-winning actor Malachi Kirby (“Small Axe”) stars as Hezekiah Moscow, who finds himself thrust into the vibrant and violent melting pot of post-industrial revolution London’s East End from Jamaica. Drawn into the criminal underbelly of the thriving boxing scene, he meets Mary Carr, played by Erin Doherty (“The Crown”), leader of The Forty Elephants – the notorious all-female London gang – as they battle for survival on the streets. As Hezekiah sharpens his new skills, he comes up against Sugar Goodson, played by Stephen Graham (“Boiling Point”, “Boardwalk Empire”), a seasoned and dangerous boxer and the two are soon locked into an intense rivalry that spills out way beyond the ring.”
