Steven Knight, the creator of the globally acclaimed series *Peaky Blinders*, has weighed in on whether fans can expect more stories from the Shelby family beyond the highly anticipated Cillian Murphy-led film.
Speaking in a recent interview, Knight hinted that the upcoming movie will mark a pivotal moment in the franchise, but left the door open for further explorations in the gritty world of Birmingham’s infamous gangsters.
According to Knight, the film, which is set to begin production soon, will serve as the culmination of the series’ overarching narrative while also laying the groundwork for potential new stories. “The movie will be a finale of sorts, but it’s not necessarily the end,” Knight teased.
“There’s so much richness in this world and these characters that there’s always room for more, provided the right story comes along.
” This statement has reignited excitement among fans who have long speculated about spin-offs or prequels featuring other members of the Shelby clan.
The potential for expanding the *Peaky Blinders* universe is vast, and Knight has expressed interest in exploring different formats and timelines.
He has previously hinted at the possibility of delving into the origins of the Shelby family or introducing entirely new characters within the same gritty backdrop. While no official announcements have been made, Knight’s comments suggest that the franchise’s creative team is actively considering ways to keep the *Peaky Blinders* legacy alive.
For now, all eyes are on the forthcoming film, which will reunite Cillian Murphy as Tommy Shelby with other familiar faces from the series. Fans are eager to see how the movie will wrap up the storylines left open in the show’s dramatic finale, and whether it will set the stage for new chapters. With Knight at the helm, one thing is certain: the *Peaky Blinders* world remains as compelling and unpredictable as ever.
