Tim Roth Joins Peaky Blinders Movie Cast

Highly anticipated, the sequel to the series in feature film for Netflix continues to expand its distribution.

If the project is still nebulous, the film Peaky Blinders in any case sees its cast filling out. After Cillian Murphy -who will reprise his role as Tommy Shelby- Rebecca Ferguson And Barry KeoghanIt is Tim Roth which has just been announced. A real event, the film should be set during the Second World War and promises, according to Barry Keoghan, to be “epic”. The screenwriter is none other than the showrunner Steven Knightand the director, Tom Harperis the same as for the series, signifying a sort of continuity both in the story but also in the setting.

Tim Roth, nominated for an Oscar in 1995 for his role in Rob Roy alongside Liam Neeson is the latest brand name to join the cast of Peaky Blinders. While filming on the film will begin at the end of the year, no details on his role have yet filtered out. Steven Knight recently spoke about the casting “breathtaking” at the RTS convention in London, emphasizing that the film “takes place during World War II and is really good.”

Of Little Odessahas Reservoir Dogs, pulp Fiction or the TV series Lie to MeTim Roth has always known how to develop characters on the edge of mystery, great silencers with perfect mastery. We inevitably wonder if his character in the Netflix film Peaky Blinders will be in this vein.
