Peaky Blinders Season 7 & Movie Connection, Explained
Rumor has it that The Immortal Man is not going to be Peaky Blinders' last installment, season 7 of the series may also come out. How are the two parts of the saga connected? Let's find out.
Even though it was previously said that the iconic mob show Peaky Blinders will come to its end after the new movie, The Immortal Man, airs on Netflix later this year, the latest rumors hinted on the fact that there might be a new season still coming out.
The Sun reported earlier that the show’s writers are eager to capitalize on the franchise with another season that will probably start filming this summer. The sources of the magazine stated that the new chapter will even be ready to premiere in 2026.
An insider stated, “Steven Knight couldn't resist coming back to the story – his most famous creation – and he's been dropping hints he wanted to return to do more.”
But how are the two new installments going to share the Peaky Blinders universe?
How Are Peaky Blinders Season 7 and The Immortal Man Connected?
According to the latest reports, the new season will shift the timeline and be set in the 1950s. Frankly, it's only logical that the latest installment will take place after the events of the movie. As we know, The Immortal Man will be set during World War II, so any continuation would have to take place after the war.
This also fits in with Knight's previous comments, which suggest that the story could continue sooner than expected, although nothing has been officially confirmed yet.
How Can Cillian Murphy Be a Part of Season 7?
With rumors swirling about the show's comeback, one of the most important questions is whether the main mobster, Thomas Shelby, will be in it. He is definitely starring in The Immortal Man, but nothing is clear on the series yet. However, there are already many speculations about that, but only one thing sounds like the best way out.
“Perhaps the movie title alludes to the idea that Tommy is immortal because no enemy can kill him. I could see him guiding a new generation of Peaky Blinders before old age gets him…” Redditor No-Show-9560 said.
Where to Stream Peaky Blinders?
While we are still waiting for season 7 to be confirmed and the full feature Peaky Blinders movie to come out later this year, you can stream seasons 1-6 of the show on Netflix.
