It’s time to take ‘Peaky Blinders’ to stranger places. The new orders suggest that the renowned actor Charlie Heaton will be joining the violence from the era of World War II. While the sequel remains untitled as of now, the series is set to bring a new generation into force.
Charlie Heaton as Charles Shelby in ‘Peaky Blinders’ sequel
Charlie Heaton, who recently wrapped up his role as Jonathan Byers in the acclaimed series ‘Stranger Things,’ will play Charles Shelby, who tried to cut his ties from the gang lifestyle – but the chaos follows wherever the Shelby blood goes. The first look was released on the official handle of the series on social media. “Charles Shelby is embracing normality and hasn’t seen his half-brother Duke in years,” the plot synopsis written in the caption states, before adding, “He’s severed all ties to the Peaky Blinders, and the hedonistic Shelby lifestyle. But can you ever escape your own blood?” Meanwhile, Charles Shelby’s half-brother, Duke, will be played by none other than Jamie Bell. The six-episode series, currently in production in Birmingham, will focus on the next patriarch after Thomas Shelby, according to Variety. Focusing on the critical decade, the show will see the rebuilding and harmonizing of Birmingham, which was destroyed during the Blitz. The other cast members include Jessica Brown Findlay, Lashana Lynch, and Lucy Karczewski. While the release date has not been announced, the show can be watched on Netflix all over the world, except in the UK.
About ‘The Immortal Man’
Earlier this year, Thomas Shelby (Cillian Murphy) bid goodbye to the world of Peaky Blinders through the film, ‘The Immortal Man.’ With no peace in sight, the film focused on the power struggles and Birmingham getting bombed, with Thomas choosing to fight for his family after coming out of his isolation shell. Now, the chaos continues.
