Peaky Blinders: Rebecca Ferguson Joins Cillian Murphy for Netflix Film
Steven Knight's Cillian Murphy-starring Peaky Blinders film has tapped Rebecca Ferguson (Dune, Silo) to join the cast in an undisclosed role.
Last month, the rumblings became a reality for fans of Steven Knight's Cillian Murphy-starring series Peaky Blinders. That's when they learned that the Academy Award-winning actor would be reprising his role as Thomas Shelby for a Tom Harper (Heart of Stone, Wild Rose)-directed Netflix film. Now, we're getting our first major casting news – with the streamer confirming that Rebecca Ferguson (Dune, Silo) has joined the cast – though details on her role were not released. Knight has written the script for the film and is set to co-produce alongside Murphy, Caryn Mandabach, and Guy Heeley. Harper, David Kosse, Jamie Glazebrook, Andrew Warren, and David Mason are set as executive producers.
Here's a look at the announcement that went out back at the beginning of June, showing off the cover of the film's script – followed by comments from Murphy, Harper, and Knight:
"It seems like Tommy Shelby wasn't finished with me… It is very gratifying to be re-collaborating with Steven Knight and Tom Harper on the film version of 'Peaky Blinders.' This is one for the fans," Murphy shared. "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," Harper added. "I'm genuinely thrilled that this movie is about to happen," Knight shared. "It will be an explosive chapter in the 'Peaky Blinders' story. No holds barred. Full on 'Peaky Blinders' at war."
