The razor-sharp legacy of the Shelby family continues as Cillian Murphy reprises his iconic role in Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man, the long-awaited cinematic continuation of the beloved British crime saga. The film is set to premiere in select theaters on March 6, 2026, before landing on Netflix globally on March 20.

Netflix unveiled the official trailer this week, reigniting global excitement for the return of Tommy Shelby. The film picks up years after the explosive finale of Season 6, plunging viewers into a post-war Birmingham haunted by ghosts of the past and the looming specter of a new generation of power players.

“He’s just medicating and living in this purgatory that he’s created for himself in this big old house,” Murphy told Netflix, describing Tommy’s fragile state in the film.

The trailer teases a darker, more introspective chapter for the once-unstoppable gangster. Set against the backdrop of World War II, The Immortal Man introduces new characters, including a formidable rival played by Barry Keoghan, whose presence signals a shift in the criminal underworld’s balance of power.

Directed by series creator Steven Knight, the film promises to be a fitting conclusion to the Peaky Blinders saga, blending the show’s signature grit, style, and psychological depth with the cinematic scale fans have long craved.

The trailer’s release has already sparked a frenzy across social media, with fans dissecting every frame for clues about Tommy’s fate. Is he truly immortal, or is this his final reckoning?

One thing is certain: the Peaky Blinders are back, and they’re not going quietly.
