Fresh off his Oscar-winning performance as J. Robert Oppenheimer, Murphy is also aiding in the production of the film, which is a collaboration between Netflix and the BBC. Still without an official title, the movie will be directed by Tom Harper, who also directed the finale of the first season of the series.

In March, Steven Knight, the series’ creator, had already revealed that the film would move forward with Murphy included, but fans were still awaiting confirmation from the studio.

Further details about the cast and plot are still a mystery, although there are rumors that the movie’s story will take place during World War II.

“It seems Tommy Shelby isn’t done with me yet,” said Murphy in a statement to Deadline last Tuesday (4). “It’s very gratifying to collaborate with Steven Knight and Tom Harper on the cinematic version of Peaky Blinders. This one’s for the fans.”
