Since its inception, Peaky Blinders has solidified itself as one of the most in-demand, beloved shows of the 21st century, partly due to its protagonist and Shelby family leader Tommy, played by Cillian Murphy.

However, as the sixth and final season of the series approaches, with a Peaky Blinders film becoming near-certain, creator Steven Knight stated that he does not exclude a future without Murphy.

While stating that the series, in its current form, is nearly impossible to carry on without Murphy, Knight revealed that the show may be taking another form, potentially surrounding the Shelby family and history of Small Heath, going on to compliment Murphy for his dramatic prowess.
