Netflix dropped the first full trailer for Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man today, and it makes one thing clear fast: Tommy Shelby is not getting a quiet ending.
The film jumps forward to Birmingham in 1940, with World War II already in motion. Tommy (Cillian Murphy) is shown living in a self-imposed exile, worn down and haunted, trying to stay out of the fight. That “retired” version of him does not last long. The trailer frames his return as personal as much as it is political, pulling him back to Small Heath when his son Duke (Barry Keoghan) starts running the Peaky Blinders with the kind of reckless confidence that looks like history repeating itself.
A big new wrinkle is the threat angle. The trailer leans into rising fascism, with Tim Roth appearing as a well-dressed, unnerving figure circling Duke and the gang. It’s the kind of danger Tommy understands better than most, and the preview suggests he’s forced to choose between staying out of it or stepping back in before his family gets swallowed by something bigger than street wars.
There’s also a more mysterious edge in the footage, thanks to Rebecca Ferguson’s character, who seems positioned as both a mirror and a warning for Tommy. If the series always had one foot in grit and the other in fate, the trailer looks like it’s doubling down on that vibe while still delivering the familiar ingredients: the Garrison, the cap, the stare-downs, and the sense that violence is never far away.
Music is doing a lot of heavy lifting here too. The trailer is set to “Puppet,” an original track credited to Grian Chatten (Fontaines D.C.) along with Antony Genn and Martin Slattery, who are also tied to the film’s score. If you’re a “Red Right Hand” person, you’ll probably want to keep an ear out for the soundtrack rollout as the release gets closer.
Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man hits select cinemas on March 6, 2026, then streams on Netflix March 20, 2026.
