The new show will take place 10 years after the events of 'The Immortal Man' and follow the next generation of the Shelby family in the 1950s, reported Variety.
"In this new era of Peaky Blinders, a decade after World War Two, the race to rebuild Birmingham becomes a brutal contest of mythical dimensions. This is a city of unprecedented opportunity and jeopardy. At its blood-soaked heart is Duke Shelby: older, wiser, more ambitious, and most certainly more dangerous," reads the official logline, as quoted by Variety.
Two six-episode seasons of the sequel series, now filming in Birmingham, will arrive on Netflix and BBC. The show is produced by Banijay U.K.'s Kudos and Garrison Drama.
"I am thrilled that we are announcing a new era of Peaky Blinders, moving the story to post-war Birmingham in the early '50s," said "Peaky Blinders" creator and writer Steven Knight. "We are incredibly fortunate to have Jamie Bell taking the role of Tommy Shelby's oldest son, Duke, and to have the incredible Charlie Heaton also leading the cast. There are more exciting cast announcements to come, and Peaky is on the road again," reported Variety. (ANI)
