Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man – Tommy Shelby Returns as Netflix Confirms March 2026 Release

“Whatever happened to Tommy Shelby?”

That haunting question finally has an answer.

Netflix has officially unveiled the teaser for Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man, the long-awaited continuation of the global phenomenon Peaky Blinders. Four years after the series finale, Tommy Shelby is back — and his story is far from over.

The film will premiere March 6, 2026, in select cinemas, before arriving globally on Netflix on March 20, 2026.

By order of the Peaky Blinders, this is one return fans cannot miss.

The Immortal Man Brings Tommy Shelby Back From the Shadows

The teaser opens with the question fans have obsessed over since the final episode: “Whatever happened to Tommy Shelby?”

The answer?

He survived.

But he is not the same man.

Played once again by Cillian Murphy, Tommy Shelby steps into a new era, older, heavier with guilt, and shaped by the wars — both personal and political — that defined his life.

“I’m not that man anymore,” Tommy says in the teaser.

And yet… the past refuses to stay buried.

What Is Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man About?

Written by series creator Steven Knight and directed by Tom Harper, The Immortal Man continues the Shelby saga beyond the events of the original BBC series.

Set after the fall of fascism-era politics and the closing chapter of the show, the film explores:

• Tommy Shelby’s fate after cheating death

• The cost of power, legacy, and survival

• A Britain reshaped by war, crime, and shifting empires

• Whether the Peaky Blinders can truly escape their past

This is not a reboot.

This is the final evolution of the Peaky Blinders myth.

A Stacked Cast Old and New

The film reunites beloved characters while introducing powerful new faces:

Returning Cast

• Stephen Graham as Hayden Stagg

• Ned Dennehy as Charlie Strong

When and Where to Watch The Immortal Man

Why This Film Matters to Peaky Blinders Fans

Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man isn’t just fan service — it’s a proper cinematic farewell.

It promises:

• Closure for Tommy Shelby’s arc

• A darker, more reflective tone

• Bigger stakes than the TV series could deliver

• A story shaped by time, trauma, and consequence

As Murphy himself put it:

“It seems like Tommy Shelby wasn’t finished with me.”

And honestly?

He wasn’t finished with us either.

Final Verdict: The King of Birmingham Rises Again

Few TV characters have left a cultural footprint like Tommy Shelby.

Few series earned a return like Peaky Blinders.

With The Immortal Man, Netflix isn’t reviving a brand — it’s finishing a legend.

By order of the Peaky Blinders, March 2026 just became unmissable.
