Netflix has released a first look at Cillian Murphy as Tommy Shelby in the upcoming Peaky Blinders movie.

The final season of Peaky Blinders may have come to a divisive climax back in April 2022 - however fans are well aware that the story of notorious Birmingham gangster-turned-businessman Tommy Shelby was far from over.

Following the finale it was confirmed by series creator and writer Steven Knight that he would finish the Shelby story in a feature length format - with the project later being picked up by Netflix.

Two years on and it seems there is finally movement on the project, with Netflix sharing images of Murphy and Knight together as well as one of the Irish actor in character.

Taking to X, the streamer wrote: "By order of the Peaky Blinders... Tommy Shelby is back. Cillian Murphy and Steven Knight are reunited on set as production officially starts on the upcoming Netflix film."

Our first look at Tommy Shelby back in action gives very little of away in terms of what to expect from the upcoming film, with the character donning his signature suit and looking pensive while facing the camera side on.

Check out the photos below:

Eagle-eyed fans were able to notice one difference from the photo, as a now greying Shelby appears to have finally ditched his 'short back and sides' haircut for a less drastic look.

"Rip to the tommy shelby cut you will be missed by everyone but cillian murphy," one person replied, while a second simply added: "TOMMY’S HAIR????"

What do we know about the Peaky Blinders film?

Other than the return of Tommy Shelby and World War II, very little is known about the upcoming film as cast and crew understandably want to keep their cards close to their chest.

It's currently reported, as per Deadline, that Rebecca Ferguson, Barry Keoghan and Tim Roth will be joining Murphy, however any details about their characters are yet to be revealed.

As for a release date, nothing has been confirmed yet. However, as production has only just got underway it's likely that we won't see the film until late 2025 at the earliest.

"I'm thrilled to see the cameras rolling on this new chapter of the Peaky Blinders story, set during World War II. The country is at war, and so, of course, are our Peaky Blinders," Knight said of the project in a statement.

Director Tom Harper added: "There’s a great feeling of anticipation and excitement amongst our outstanding cast and crew. We’re grateful to the fans for getting us to this point and believe this next chapter is going to deliver something extraordinary."
