Apple TV+ ha dado el pistoletazo de salida al rodaje de Lucky, su nueva miniserie original, basada en la novela superventas homónima de Marissa Stapley.

Anya Taylor-Joy vuelve a la televisión después de haber interpretado a Gina Gray en Peaky Blinders y a Beth Harmon en Gambito de dama, el que fue el papel que le dio la fama, para meterse en la piel de una joven, Lucky, que dejó atrás la vida criminal en la que se crio, pero que ahora debe abrazar su lado más oscuro y criminal por última vez en un intento desesperado por escapar de su pasado.

Además de Taylor-Joy , la serie también está protagonizada por Drew Starkey (Queer), Annette Bening (Nyad), Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor (Los chicos de la Nickel) y Timothy Olyphant (Terminator Zero).

Por su parte, detrás del proyecto están Jonathan Tropper (Vicios ocultos), que firma el guion,...

Anya Taylor-Joy's star has been steadily rising for a while now and her increasingly important parts in increasingly significant movies and TV shows have garnered the young actress an impressive net worth. Born in the United States but raised in Argentina and London, it was a long road back to Hollywood for Anya Taylor-Joy, who began her professional acting career in 2014, when she appeared on the TV show Endeavour as Philippa Collins-Davidson for one episode. More movie and TV roles quickly followed, and Taylor-Joy steadily built up an impressive resume with Peaky Blinders and The Witch as early hits.

It was Queen's Gambit that really rocketed Taylor-Joy into stardom, however, and the success of that miniseries seemed to somehow revive, or perhaps even kickstart, a wave of prestige Netflix television shows. Since then, Taylor-Joy has been a part of some of the biggest blockbusters in the industry. As far as her personal life goes,...

Cillian Murphy will return to his role of Tommy Shelby in a Peaky Blinders film with several notable other cast members attached to the project.

The six-season BBC drama series came to a close in April 2022, but that was not the end of Tommy’s story.

Read on for news, updates and everything we know about the Peaky Blinders movie in the works.

When will the Peaky Blinders movie come out?

It’s too early to tell. The feature film’s announcement and greenlighting earlier this year have led to multiple big-name castings as the project develops.

Has the Peaky Blinders movie started production?

Yes, production started Sept. 30.

Who will be in the Peaky Blinders movie?

Aside from Murphy, who won an Oscar for his role in Oppenheimer (2023), Rebecca Ferguson, Barry Keoghan and Tim Roth have boarded the film.

Tom Hardy reveals that he wants to return as Alfie in the Peaky Blinders movie, but it's not confirmed yet. So far, Cillian Murphy's Tommy Shelby is the only character confirmed to be returning. Peaky Blinders season 6 sets up several crucial character returns, including Arthur, Lizzie, and Gina Gray, among others.

Alfie Solomons actor Tom Hardy addresses whether he will return in the Peaky Blinders movie. Created by Steven Knight, the hit crime drama follows crime boss Tommy Shelby (Cillian Murphy) and his eponymous gang in early 20th century England. After 6 popular seasons, a Peaky Blinders movie is now confirmed to be moving forward, with filming expected to begin this September and Murphy reprising his role.

During a recent interview with Sky News, Hardy is asked whether he will be reprising his role as Alfie in the Peaky Blinders movie. While nothing is yet set in stone, the actor...

The Peaky Blinders movie has officially been greenlit with Cillian Murphy returning as Tommy Shelby after Netflix's confirmation. Isiah Jesus could have a bigger role in the movie with potentially new motivations, elevating his importance. Characters like Alfie Solomons and Gina Gray must return for the film to tie into the Boston spinoff and maintain continuity.

The Peaky Blinders movie has been officially greenlit with Cillian Murphy reprising his role as Tommy Shelby, but the protagonist isn't the only character who needs to return. Netflix officially confirmed that The Peaky Blinders movie is happening and that Murphy will be part of the project, meaning the hit drama series can finally appear on the big screen. Peaky Blinders first debuted in 2013 and concluded almost a decade later. The gritty British crime show became popular all around the world and received incredible reviews, leading to rumors about a potential movie.

While the show's creator,...

2023 was a dream year for Cillian Murphy as the actor bagged every award of the season, including the coveted Oscar for his unforgettable performance in Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer. While the film is definitely a landmark in his career, the actor also gained a lot of fame for his role as the dangerous gang leader in the popular British drama Peaky Blinders.

The show, which ran for 6 successful seasons, saw the introduction of one of Hollywood’s rapidly rising superstars, Anya Taylor-Joy, in season 5, who shared a great onscreen chemistry with the Oscar winner. Joy, in an interview, revealed an unknown fact about Murphy that was quite contrary to his character, Thomas Shelby.

Ready, steady, go! But be warned, this article contains spoilers for "Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga."

Long before 2015's "Mad Max: Fury Road" and its particular brand of vehicular mayhem peeled into theaters, promptly changing the action genre forever, director and mastermind George Miller had already mapped out an origin story for what would turn out to be the blockbuster's scene-stealing star: Charlize Theron's Imperator Furiosa. It only took the better part of a decade to finally see that vision realized on the big screen with this year's utterly epic "Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga," but the lengthy hiatus wasn't the biggest obstacle standing in Miller's way. Since the prequel was always meant to depict the earlier years of Furiosa's life, a new actor would have to face the daunting — if not impossible — challenge of stepping into Theron's shoes.

Who else among this current crop of performers could've...

It's rare to watch an actor's star rise in real-time, but that is precisely what is happening with Anya Taylor-Joy.

The actress has nary a single project in her resume that wasn't loved by critics and audiences alike, save for a big-budget script or two.

With barely an entire decade under her belt, Anya Taylor-Joy already has thirty-nine nominations, including fifteen wins, three of which are a Golden Globe, a Critic's Choice Aware, and a Screen Actor's Guild award.

Not too bad, considering she's not even thirty yet. She's made some significant moves and has quickly solidified herself as one of Hollywood's most talented young actors.

From protecting the Mushroom Kingdom to questionable fine dining, Anya Taylor-Joy has embarked on various roles. Whether it's just her voice or a full view of her stealing every scene with her piercing gaze, the actress has the skill of someone with decades of experience.

Anya Taylor-Joy's recent box office hits make her a must-have for the Peaky Blinders sequel, boosting its commercial success. While Gina Gray may not have a major role in the upcoming Peaky Blinders film, Anya Taylor-Joy's return is essential for its popularity. Anya Taylor-Joy's character, Gina Gray, could play a crucial part in future Peaky Blinders shows, especially in the Boston spin-off.

Anya Taylor-Joy's recent box office hits make her an essential piece in the upcoming Peaky Blinders sequel. The actress joined Peaky Blinders in its fifth season, taking on the role of the compelling Gina Grey. While she never plays an instrumental part in the show's conflict, the Peaky Blinders sequel film could feature her as a prevalent character, bringing one of the most exciting stars in the series to center stage and ultimately increasing its chances of commercial success. Combining Anya Taylor-Joy with Cillian Murphy could bring...

Anya Taylor-Joy is a versatile actress and has proven herself to be a bona fide movie star throughout her short career, impressing in movies like The Witch, Last Night in Soho, and The Menu

In the span of less than a decade, Anya Taylor-Joy movies have become frequently talked-about pieces of cinema. Technically, her first acting role was in the 2014 horror-comedy Vampire Academy, but it was a minor character that was removed from the film's final cut. Taylor-Joy's career truly started off with small television roles: a one-episode guest spot in the British detective drama Endeavour and a multi-episode arc of Atlantis, a fantasy drama. However, the actress had her breakthrough with The Witch, Robert Eggers' 2015 period supernatural horror film. After The Witch, Anya Taylor-Joy became a rising young actress, with more success and acclaim to come.

Anya Taylor-Joy has starred in many horror movies, but she has shown her range in many film genres.

We may have just been gifted with Cillian Murphy's presence in the recently released "Oppenheimer", but fans of "Peaky Blinders" might not have too long to wait for another dose of Thomas Shelby. Murphy has given an update into the workings of the potential upcoming gangster film as the Irish actor revealed that he'd love to work with Tom Hardy again if a "Peaky Blinders" movie was to come to fruition.

In a recent interview with GQ Magazine, Murphy was asked about whether he has plans to work with Hardy – whom he teamed up with in the drama series, as well as in "The Dark Knight Rises," "Inception," and "Dunkirk" – once again. "He's one of the best actors in the business," Murphy began. "And we've developed this great trust and shorthand and there's a nice kind of chemistry, I think, between the two of us. I'd love to work with him again.

Princess Peach soars down Rainbow Road in a new poster for The Super Mario Bros. Movie. The new film, directed by Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic, with a screenplay by Matthew Fogel, comes out April 7. Starring alongside Anya Taylor-Joy as Princess Peach are Chris Pratt as Mario, Charlie Day as Luigi, Jack Black as Bowser, Keegan-Michael Key as Toad, and Seth Rogen as Donkey Kong.

On her Instagram, Taylor-Joy shared a new character poster for The Super Mario Bros. Movie that features Princess Peach riding down the iconic Rainbow Road. Check out the poster below:

2022 is truly a special year for Anya Taylor-Joy fans, as she takes over the lead role alongside Ralph Fiennes in her latest film The Menu, a horror comedy that takes the "Earth The Rich" expression to unexpected extremes. Anya also had crucial roles in other 2022 movies such as The Northman and Amsterdam.

With a versatile career that ranges from superhero movies to elevated horror films, Anya Taylor-Joy has played many exciting characters, some more likable than others.

Lily - Thoroughbreds (2017)

The problem with Lily is that Amanda, her new best friend and the character that co-leads Thoroughbreds, is much more interesting than her. The film follows the unlikely friendship between Amanda, who's unable to feel genuine emotions, and Lily, a run-of-mill teenager with dark intentions.

In the sixth and final season of "Peaky Blinders," Boston gang leader Jack Nelson is spoken of before he's ever seen. It's not until the end of the second episode that he shows up onscreen inside a cathedral, where series protagonist Tommy Shelby (Cillian Murphy) goes to meet him. James Frecheville, known for his role in the 2010 Australian crime drama "Animal Kingdom," turns around and says in a Boston accent, "Mr. Shelby," finally giving the elusive "Uncle Jack" a face, though the actor playing him is only five years older than the one playing his supposed niece, Gina Gray (Ana...

Warning: contains spoilers for the Peaky Blinders finale ‘Lock and Key’.

Towards the end of the Peaky Blinders finale, when all the ‘black cat’ traitors had been killed or ousted from the Shelby family, the gang gathered in the woods of the recently dynamited Arrow House for a farewell banquet. Ada and Karl, Linda, Arthur, Charles, Charlie, Curly, Johnny Dogs, Duke, and housekeeper Frances… everybody but Lizzie, who’d left Tommy after he slept with Diana Mitford, and the newly disowned Finn, raised a glass to “family” as Tommy said his goodbyes. Tommy believed he was travelling to his death, but had a surprise on the way. We break that down, along with other questions fans may have after ‘Lock and Key’.

Why Was Finn Banished From the Family?

Because he failed the test set for him at Arrow House and chose his friend over his family. Ever since Arthur...

The Shelby family is returning for one last ride as the final season of Peaky Blinders is set to land on Netflix on June 10. Created by Steven Knight and starring Cillian Murphy, the hit series is set in Birmingham, England, and follows the exploits of the Peaky Blinders crime gang in the fallout of the First World War. While the upcoming sixth season will be the show’s last, a spinoff film adaptation is in development and expected to go into production in 2023. Murphy reprises his role as family patriarch Tommy Shelby, alongside Paul Anderson as Arthur Shelby Jr., Sophie Rundle as Ada Shelby, Finn Cole as Michael Gray, Anya Taylor-Joy as Gina Gray, Natasha O’Keeffe as Lizzie Shelby, and Tom Hardy as Alfie Solomons. However, one key character missing from Season 6 is Aunt Polly, played by Helen McCrory, who tragically passed away from cancer last April. “I think this...

Who is Gina Gray? Ever since Anya Taylor-Joy’s character slunk into the Garrison Tavern, all fox fur coat and Betty Boop eyes, Peaky Blinders viewers have been asking that question. Michael Gray’s new American wife dropped like a bomb into series five. Her every appearance sparked fan theories: her pregnancy was a lie, she was Mosley’s co-conspirator, she was an assassin sent by a rival gang out for Tommy’s blood… When Michael boasted of Gina’s family connections in the illegal supply trade during his attempted coup, we pegged her as a gangster.

“Like everything else in this city, it’s in the hand of your Uncle Jack”

After the series six opener, it’s clear that ‘gangster’ is an oversimplification. Gina’s family is connected, but not just in the criminal world. The so-far unseen...

An intricately crafted drama that rewards digging through the details (as our exploration of the hidden messages in the season five sets shows), here’s our weekly accompaniment to every Peaky Blinders season six episode, including references, locations, real history and more. Read our spoiler-filled episode one review here.

Episode One: Black Day Charlie Chaplin, William Blake, and The Shining

– The Romani gypsy words spoken by Ruby in her fevered state appear to be “Tikno mora o beng o beng”. In this English/Romani dictionary, ‘tikno’ means child or small, ‘mora’ or ‘maura’ means to slay or kill, and ‘o beng’ means ‘the devil’. Tommy takes those words extremely seriously and instructs Lizzie to keep Ruby away from horses and water, and to have Johnny Dogs’ eldest wife Esmeralda put a Black Madonna pendant around Ruby’s neck for protection from curses.

Warning: this Peaky Blinders review contains spoilers.

What better tribute could Peaky Blinders pay to the character of Aunt Polly – and to the equally redoubtable Helen McCrory – than birdsong and fire and a portrait titled “Fuck Them All”? A portrait the eyes of which lingered in the sky at the funeral of the gypsy queen, watching over the sorry lot of them. The untimely death of McCrory from illness during the Covid-rescheduled production period necessitated a rewrite in which her character became a casualty of Tommy’s ambition. That deep loss was confronted head-on this episode, with a music-free funeral pyre and a vow of vengeance spoken into the flames.

This show’s always lived side-by-side with ghosts, omens and dreams. It’s set in a world where the walls between life and death run thin. So Polly’s gone and yet not gone. Tommy still talks to her. And...

Since Peaky Blinders broke through on Netflix in the US, its creators have dropped hints about the Hollywood superstars lobbying for roles in the Birmingham-based gangster drama. Brad Pitt, Julia Roberts, Snoop Dogg, Samuel L. Jackson and more are all fans of the show, and apparently keen to come aboard. Those names don’t appear among the series six cast announced below (though who knows about the planned follow-up feature film), but it’s obvious that Peaky Blinders has no trouble attracting serious talent. Series six welcomes acclaimed This is England, Boardwalk Empire, The Virtues and Line of Duty‘s Stephen Graham, and welcomes back Tom Hardy once again as the apparently unkillable Alfie Solomons. Both will appear in Peaky Blinders’ final TV series, alongside one of the finest British regular casts around. We’ll update this list as more details are confirmed.

Steven Knight’s period drama “Peaky Blinders” is set to return for a final season, and the BBC has released the first trailer of the gang getting back together.

Cillian Murphy is front and center as seasoned criminal Tommy Shelby, with an extended appearance in the spot from Anya Taylor-Joy, reviving her role as Gina Gray.

Knight spoke with Variety last year about what fans can expect from the sixth season.

“What I’m doing with series six is continuing that struggle Tommy Shelby has in his opposition to fascism,” he said. “What I wanted to do is that when Tommy Shelby came back from WWI, he was emotionally dead. He was switched off because of his experiences and he was a nihilist, amoral and would do anything. He had one goal which was to accumulate money, but when he encounters fascism, something is brought back to life and he...

Season five of Peaky Blinders - which hit Netflix in the Us on Oct. 4 - is a wild ride, and the good news for fans is that season six of the show is definitely happening. The show's creator, Steven Knight, confirmed that at least one, if not two new seasons are on their way, and scripts for season six have already been written. Speaking to the Birmingham Press Club, he said, "We are definitely doing six, and we will probably do seven. After series four, it went mad." So what can we expect from the Shelby family in the future?

Who's In the Cast for Peaky Blinders Season 6?

Don't worry - Tommy Shelby isn't going anywhere. According to Knight, "We've talked to Cillian Murphy, and he's all for it, and the rest of the principal cast are in for it." That means we can safely expect the return of Paul Anderson as Arthur Shelby,...

Netflix is bringing back Peaky Blinders for a fifth season and we’ve got a fantastic new trailer to share with you for it that is sure to get the fans pumped up for what this next season will entail. In the next chapter of the story, the Shelbys grapple with the 1929 stock market crash, and Tommy “confronts new threats to his power from younger family members and fascist rivals.”

It’s been two freakin’ years since Peaky Blinders Season 4 was released on Netflix and I’m so happy that we’ve got six more episodes coming our way soon! It’s been promised by series creator Steven Knight that this season will be filled with “shocks and surprises.”

Here’s the synopsis:

With just two weeks to go until the Oct. 4 launch date, Netflix has released a brand new trailer for the fifth season of “Peaky Blinders” — and it’s full of real and imagined violence, and one unfortunate scarecrow.

If you want to see Tommy Shelby use a Tommy gun to murder a scarecrow hung on a cross, watch the video above now.

Before it gets blasted to smithereens, the straw effigy of Cillian Murphy’s character delivers a sinister note telling him: “Look down on earth, and see the seeds you have sown.”

I love this show and it’s about damn time Season 5 gets a release date! Series creator Steven Knight talked about the upcoming chapter of the story saying that it begins with the Wall Street crash of 1929 and the Shelby family “seriously affected because they’ve invested their legitimate money and are going to have to fall back on the illegitimate money.” He also promised “shocks and surprises to come.”

Here’s the official description for the Steven Knight-created series’ fifth season:

An epic, gangster family series set in the lawless streets of Birmingham, UK and beyond, Peaky Blinders follows the evolution of leader Tommy Shelby (Cillian Murphy) from backstreet crime lord to legitimate businessman and member of parliament. It explores the notions that violence destroys lives, empires rise and fall over time, and class divisions are corrosive. Season 5, returning Friday, October 4th, finds the world thrown into turmoil by the financial crash of 1929.
