Bad news for Peaky Blinders fans :the series will not have the right to a seventh season!
Since 2013, viewers have been following the adventures of the Shelby family who reign supreme over a district of Birmingham. And if the series had to have seven seasons , this will ultimately not be the case. Indeed, the sixth season, which should not be released before the end of 2021, or even the beginning of 2022, will definitely be the last!
COVID-19 has something to do with this story. The global pandemic has indeed stopped many productions, forcing producers to take drastic decisions . This is the case for Peaky Blinders , whose entire filming of the sixth season has been delayed since the first confinement in March 2020. The showrunner from the Steven Knight series, explained to Variety :
Steven Knight does not completely close the door to a sequel for the series. It may be in the form of a film, or even a spin-off could emerge. He explained:
In 2018, Otto Bathurst, one of the directors of the series broadcast on Netflix had already expressed the idea that a film could one day be in preparation . He confided in Yahoo Movies UK:
Before having the answer to this question, the fans of the series are impatient to find their favorite heroes on their screens. And that's good, the shooting of season 6 has finally started.
