ScreenRant : You’ve describedThe Immortal Manas a meet end to the first chapter ofPeaky Blinders . How does this new chapter evolve Tommy Shelby ’s level , and what does the cinematic scale add to the Peaky Blinders experience ?
Steven Knight : Yeah , it ’s countersink during 1940 , when Birmingham was being carpet - bomb every night by the German Air Force . So , obviously the stakes are in high spirits . People do n’t have sex if they ’re going to live until tomorrow sunrise . There ’s a lot of hedonism , there ’s a lot of fatalism , and you ’re throw into that Tommy Shelby who was having his own existential crisis . The stakes are all much higher .
The budget ’s bigger , and let ’s be honest , that helps . I would say this , but the cast I consider is the estimable British cast that we could mayhap have get into one spot . They are all at the top of their game . I ’ve seen rushes and assemblies , and I ’m determine the first baseball swing in a couple of weeks . It is phenomenally good .
