Tommy Shelby is headed to the big screen.
Cillian Murphy is reportedly set to reprise his role as the Irish-Romani gang leader in a “Peaky Blinders” movie, according to Steven Knight, who created the hit British crime drama.
“He definitely is returning for it,” Knight, 64, told Birmingham World of Murphy, 47, at the premiere of “The Town,” his new drama series for BBC. “We’re shooting it in September just down the road in Digbeth [England].”
The Post has contacted reps for Murphy for comment.
“Peaky Blinders” ran for six seasons from 2013 to 2022 overseas on BBC Two (then BBC One for its last two seasons) but gained worldwide fame when it hit Netflix in 2014.
The series won the Best Drama Series award at the 2018 BAFTAs.
