Date: 30th August 2024
Oscar nominee Barry Keoghan has joined the cast of Netflix’s Peaky Blinders feature.
The 31-year-old actor is the latest name to join the cast, which includes Oscar winner Cillian Murphy reprising his role from the famed series. Rebecca Ferguson also just recently joined in an unknown role.
Barry's role is being kept under wraps for the time being, as plot details for the film have also not been disclosed, though creator Stephen Knight previously said it would be set during World War II.
In the wake of the movie announcement, Cillian Murphy told Deadline: "It seems like Tommy Shelby wasn't finished with me... It is very gratifying to be recollaborating with Steven Knight and Tom Harper on the film version of 'Peaky Blinders'. This is one for the fans."
Director Tom Harper added: "When I first directed 'Peaky Blinders' over 10 years ago, we didn't know what the series would become, but we did know that there was something in the alchemy of the cast and the writing that felt explosive."
"'Peaky' has always been a story about family - and so it's incredibly exciting to be reuniting with Steve and Cillian to bring the movie to audiences across the world on Netflix."
