Here’s the latest on the Peaky Blinders universe:

  • Spin-off title (working): Peaky 1954

  • Setting: Birmingham, 1954 — post-WWII, during the city’s industrial reconstruction

  • Premise: Focuses on the Shelby family’s involvement in the race to control Birmingham’s massive rebuilding projects. The logline promises “a brutal contest of mythical dimensions” in a city full of opportunity and danger.

  • Cast glimpses: Actors like Cal O’Driscoll, Fintan Shevlin, and Jacob Wright were spotted on set wearing fedoras, likely portraying press or non-Shelby characters.

  • Production: Started March 4, 2026, in Stoke-on-Trent and Birmingham; filming mostly at Queen’s Theatre and Digbeth Loc. Studios.

  • Timeline: Spin-off reportedly planned for two seasons, with a likely release in late 2026 or early 2027.

Meanwhile, the feature-length follow-up, Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man, continues Tommy Shelby’s story in 1940:

  • Stars: Cillian Murphy, Barry Keoghan, Rebecca Ferguson, Sophie Rundle, Stephen Graham

  • Release: Select theaters now, Netflix streaming March 20, 2026

Basically, fans are getting both a prelude movie and a 1950s-era spin-off, so the Shelby saga isn’t slowing down anytime soon.
