Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man — Movie Quiz Guide
Tommy Shelby is back. Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man arrived on Netflix on March 20, 2026, bringing Cillian Murphy back for one final chapter as the most magnetic anti-hero in television history. If you have already watched the film (or even if you haven't), this guide covers everything you need to know — and our trivia quiz will test whether you were really paying attention.
The Plot: Tommy Returns to the Shadows
The Immortal Man is set during the London Blitz in November 1940 — several years after the end of Season 6. Tommy Shelby has retreated from public life following the death of his brother Arthur, who supposedly committed suicide in December 1938. Living in isolation with only his loyal assistant Johnny Dogs for company, Tommy is writing his autobiography and is haunted by visions of his deceased daughter Ruby.
But retirement does not last. A Nazi plot to destabilize Britain by flooding the economy with counterfeit currency — manufactured by inmates in concentration camps — draws Tommy back into the shadows. The scheme involves pro-Nazi agents within Britain and threatens to trigger hyperinflation that would cripple the war effort.
This is Tommy at his most dangerous: a man with nothing left to lose and everything to fight for.

Director and Writer
Tom Harper directed the film, while series creator Steven Knight wrote the screenplay — ensuring the voice that defined all six seasons carries through to the final chapter. The film premiered at Birmingham's Symphony Hall on March 2 before its worldwide Netflix release, a fitting homecoming for a story born in the streets of Small Heath.
What It Means for the Saga
The Immortal Man is positioned as the definitive ending to Tommy Shelby's story. Where Season 6 left threads deliberately loose, the film ties them together against the backdrop of World War II — the conflict that had been looming over the series since Season 5.
Steven Knight has described the film as the story he always wanted to tell: Tommy Shelby confronting the ultimate evil — fascism — with the same ruthless intelligence he used to rise from the streets of Birmingham to the halls of Parliament.
