The streamer is supposedly entering its ‘franchise era’. <\/p>
Peaky Blinders fans, you may want to try and remain calm.<\/p>\n
While we\u2019ve been teased with news of a film for a while now, it seems as though the hit Birmingham-based drama may be getting its own spin-off series too.<\/p>\n
And we\u2019re not talking about just one show, oh no. According to reports by Bloomberg<\/a>, Peaky Blinders is set to get a spin-off set in Boston in the middle of the 20th century, taking place 20 years after the original series.<\/p>\n The other series is reportedly going to focus on Polly Gray, the formidable matriarch at the heart of the Shelby family, who was played by the late Helen McCrory<\/a>.<\/p>\n RadioTimes.com<\/a> has reached out to Netflix for comment.<\/p> While these rumours will surely excite Peaky fans, it all remains unconfirmed for now \u2013 but if the reports are true, the Cillian Murphy-led drama is not the only show getting the spin-off treatment.<\/p>\n According to the same report, Netflix could be looking at franchising other series, including building off of the success of Wednesday<\/a> with other Addams Family stories.<\/p>\n Additionally, Bloomberg reports that \u201ca potential TV show set in the world of the action movie franchise Extraction<\/a>\u201d could be on the cards.<\/p>\n Read more:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n It was most recently reported that Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight<\/a> is hard at work on the script for the anticipated film sequel, and that it should begin shooting in the middle of 2024.<\/p>\n Speaking in the Christmas double issue of Radio Times magazine<\/strong>\u00a0about the\u00a0Peaky Blinders ballet The Redemption of Thomas Shelby<\/a>, Knight said: \u201cI\u2019m just working on the final bits of it at the moment. I just sit down at the keyboard and start.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s a bit like having a dream, for me. You sit there and all this stuff comes, and then you read it back and think, \u2018That\u2019s pretty good \u2013 but where did it come from?\u2019<\/p>\n \u201cThe plan is to start shooting that in the middle of next year.\u201d<\/p>\n Oppenheimer and Peaky Blinders star Cillian Murphy also said earlier this year<\/a>: \u201cI would love to do a movie if there\u2019s more story to tell. I\u2019ll wait and see, but I have no update for you on that.\u201d<\/p> \n
