Cillian Murphy is arriving with another exciting story of his infamous character Tommy Shelby in Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man, which continues the story of the Peaky Blinders series.
Set in 1940, it follows a weary, self-exiled Tommy played by Cillian as he confronts his past and a new conflict involving his son.
For those unaware, the series consists of six seasons, and the first series premiered on September 12, 2013 while the last season was premiered on BBC on February 27, 2022.
But before watching the new film, you must be aware of the following top characters to watch in film, The Immortal Man.
Thomas "Tommy" Shelby:
The Irish actor reprised the role of Birmingham gangster Thomas "Tommy" Shelby, leader of the Peaky Blinders gang, now ageing and stepping out of retirement to foil a Nazi conspiracy in the central Birmingham, an English city.
Speaking about his upcoming movie, Cillian teased, "I was always up for it, the idea… We were developing the script for years just trying to get it right, see if we could justify its existence because it’s a different beast, like a two-hour story as opposed to a six-hour story."
Duke Shelby
Portrayed by Barry Keoghan, Duke Shelby is Tommy's estranged son—and arguably the emotional core of the story.
The two shared fractured relationship that drives much of the narrative, especially as Duke becomes entangled in dangerous criminal and political forces.

Returning fan-favorite Ada, played by Sophie Rundle, continues to be a strong political and emotional anchor for the Shelby family.
With Tommy increasingly isolated, Ada’s role as strategist and voice of reason may prove more vital than ever in navigating wartime chaos.
