Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man Set for Theatrical Release

Netflix has officially announced that the anticipated film Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man will arrive in theaters on March 6, 2026, just two weeks before its streaming release on March 20, 2026. This film continues the gripping saga of the Shelby family, with star Cillian Murphy returning as Tommy Shelby.

The Storyline

The film is set in Birmingham, 1940, amid the turmoil of World War II. Tommy Shelby, facing his own inner demons, is drawn back into action from a self-imposed exile. The official synopsis states:

"Amidst the chaos of WWII, Tommy must confront his legacy or risk everything. By order of the Peaky Blinders."

Cast and Crew

Alongside Murphy, the film features notable actors such as Rebecca Ferguson, Tim Roth, Sophie Rundle, Barry Keoghan, and Stephen Graham. Directed by Tom Harper, the screenplay is penned by Steven Knight, who has expressed excitement about returning to the Peaky Blinders world.

Murphy commented, “It’s very gratifying to be recollaborating with Steven Knight and Tom Harper… This is one for the fans.” Knight also indicated his enthusiasm, calling it “an explosive chapter in the Peaky Blinders story.”

Netflix's Theatrical Strategy

Following its recent $82.7 billion acquisition of Warner Bros., Netflix is altering its theatrical release strategy. In future, the company hopes to implement shorter theatrical windows for films, allowing audiences quicker access to their favorite titles. In an investor call, CEO Ted Sarandos hinted at these upcoming changes while reassuring fans of continued theatrical releases.
