Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man: How Tommy Shelby’s Hat Ended Up With David Bowie | Set Stories

Описание: Cillian Murphy and Rebecca Ferguson break down how the Peaky Blinders movie elevates the series’ scale, from a visceral pig pen fight to fully built practical sets with no CGI. In this exclusive Collider interview, Murphy reflects on returning as Tommy Shelby, while Ferguson shares what it was like stepping into such an established world.

Murphy details filming a brutal, “grim” fight sequence with Barry Keoghan that sets the tone for the film, describing it as both physically intense and thematically loaded. He also explains how the move from BBC series to feature film allowed the team to expand production—building entire Birmingham streets rather than relying on visual effects.

Ferguson offers insight into her process, from developing her character’s backstory to collaborating with creator Steven Knight, whom Murphy calls an “oracle” of the Peaky world. The conversation also touches on practical filmmaking choices, including period-accurate sets, the challenges of constant smoking on screen, and the importance of maintaining a light atmosphere on set.

Plus, Murphy shares a memorable story about David Bowie’s connection to the show, highlighting the cultural impact Peaky Blinders has had over the years.
