The iconic TV series Peaky Blinders has been transformed into a feature film, with production now underway in the UK. The movie, set during World War II, will bring back Oscar-winning actor Cillian Murphy as Tommy Shelby, the leader of the Birmingham gangster family. This new chapter in the story has been written by Peaky Blinders' creator, Steven Knight, who has shared some details about the plot.

The Peaky Blinders gang is known for their rough and tumble ways, but their story takes a dramatic turn as they navigate the challenges of World War II. The war has a profound effect on the characters, and it will be interesting to see how they adapt to these new circumstances.

Knight has revealed that the story will explore the tensions and struggles that come with living during a time of war. He believes that the country's conflicts will mirror the conflicts within the Shelby family, and that the story will be a thrilling ride for viewers. "I'm thrilled to see the cameras rolling on this new chapter of the Peaky Blinders story, set during World War II," he said. "The country is at war, and so, of course, are our Peaky Blinders."

The film will be directed by Tom Harper, who has worked on several episodes of the TV series. He has expressed his excitement about the project, saying that there's a great feeling of anticipation and excitement amongst the cast and crew. The movie will be a collaboration between Netflix, the BBC, and BBC Film, and it's expected to be a thrilling and action-packed ride.
