Peaky Blinders Movie Cast Guide: Every New & Returning Character Confirmed So Far

The Peaky Blinders movie has revealed some of the actors set to reprise their roles from the show, as well as a handful of new actors who will be taking on previously unseen characters. The Peaky Blinders movie, which is rumored to be titled "The Immortal Man," is set to pick up the story of Tommy Shelby and his infamous family years after the ending of Peaky Blinders season 6, during World War II. Both Tommy and the Peaky Blinders have grown quite a bit since then, and the new cast members set to appear in the movie indicate they'll have new friends and foes to interact with.

The Peaky Blinders movie is still a long way off, so there aren't many confirmed details about it, even though it's the first of several upcoming Peaky Blinders spinoffs. As the Peaky Blinders universe begins to expand, however, it makes sense that the film's cast would be similarly larger than the show. There are a few very notable names that are already confirmed to appear in the upcoming movie, and they should be able to mesh extremely well with the returning actors who will star in the film.

Cillian Murphy As Tommy Shelby

Close

Active Since: 1997

Actor: Cillan Murphy was born in Douglas, County Cork, Ireland. Murphy's first major role came in the 2002 film 28 Days Later, where he played a survivor of the zombie apocalypse. Since then, Murphy has gone on to have an extremely successful acting career. He's starred in several acclaimed movies like Inception and Batman Begins, and he won his first Academy Award for Best Actor in 2023 after starring in Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer.

Character: In Peaky Blinders, Cillian Murphy plays Tommy Shelby, the middle brother and leader of the Peaky Blinders from Birmingham. Tommy is known for his incredible intelligence, his strategic brilliance, and his willingness to do anything to gain power for himself and his family. Based on images from the Peaky Blinders movie, Tommy seems to be reaching old age in the film, which may change how he approaches delicate situations.

Sophie Rundle As Ada Shelby-Thorne

Active Since: 2011

Actor: Sophie Rundle was born in England. Rundle's breakthrough role came in 2013, when she began playing Ada Shelby in Peaky Blinders. Since then, Rundle has starred in several acclaimed British shows, such as Bodyguard, Gentleman Jack, and The Nest.

Character: Sophie Rundle is reprising her role as Ada Shelby-Thorne in the Peaky Blinders movie. Ada is one of the most prominent members of the Shelby family aside from Tommy himself, though her relationship with the Peaky Blinders has fluctuated over the years. Since she'll be in the film, however, it's safe to say that Ada was still an integral part of Tommy's life for years after his rise to political power.

Rebecca Ferguson In An Unknown Role

Active Since: 2000

Actor: Rebecca Ferguson was born in Stockholm, Sweden. Ferguson's breakthrough role was in 2015's Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation, where she starred opposite Tom Cruise as Ilsa Faust. Though Ferguson has only recently received international acclaim, the actor has had a long and impressive career before stepping into the limelight. She has also grown into a true star since 2015, as she has taken on roles in massively successful films like Dune and shows like Silo.

Character: Rebecca Ferguson's role in the Peaky Blinders movie is currently unknown. Given how far forward the film will jump in the Peaky Blinders timeline, it makes sense that several new characters will be introduced. For now, however, only Ferguson's involvement is known.

Barry Keoghan In An Unknown Role

Active Since: 2010

Actor: Barry Keoghan was born in Dublin, Ireland. Keoghan's breakthrough role came in 2017's The Killing of a Sacred Deer, where he played Martin. Keoghan had gained quite a bit of prominence within Ireland prior to that movie, though 2017 introduced him to international fame. Since then, Keoghan has quickly become one of the most popular young actors in the film industry. He earned an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor from his role in The Banshees of Inisherin, and he enjoyed quite a bit of fame from his leading role in Saltburn.

Character: Barry Keoghan's role in the Peaky Blinders movie is currently unknown. Like Ferguson, only Keoghan's involvement has been confirmed at this point, and details about his character are yet to be released. No matter who Keoghan plays, however, the film will serve as a reunion between him and Cillian Murphy, as both actors appeared in 2017's Dunkirk together.

Tim Roth In An Unknown Role

Active Since: 1983

Actor: Tim Roth was born in Lambeth, London, England. Roth's breakthrough role in Quentin Tarantino's 1992 film Reservoir Dogs, where he played Mr. Orange.

Roth has starred in several other Tarantino films, such as Pulp Fiction and The Hateful Eight. Beyond that particular director, Roth has made a name for himself in both movies and shows, and he recently starred in the MCU through She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, where he played Abomination.

Character: It is currently unknown what character Tim Roth will be portraying in the Peaky Blinders movie. Like Ferguson and Keoghan, Roth's character is being kept secretive for the time being. Given his fame and past projects, however, it is safe to assume that Roth will have a fairly important part to play in the film.
