Sophie Rundle Who Played Cillian Murphy’s Sister in Series to Reprise Her Role in Peaky Blinders Netflix Spin-Off Movie; Jay Lycurgo Also Joins Cast

As a dedicated follower and ardent fan of Peaky Blinders, I can hardly contain my excitement as we delve back into the gritty world of the Shelby clan with this upcoming spin-off movie. The return of Ada Shelby, Tommy’s resilient sister, signals a new chapter in the family’s crime saga, and I can hardly wait to see how she navigates the treacherous waters of Birmingham’s underworld.


The upcoming Netflix film based on Peaky Blinders will see a few beloved characters from the show making a comeback. Besides Cillian Murphy returning as the Birmingham gang leader, Thomas Shelby, Sophie Rundle is also set to appear once more, having portrayed his screen sister, Ada Shelby. In the final episode of the series, Tommy Shelby passes control of the Shelby dynasty to Ada.

Ada’s re-entry into Birmingham’s criminal underworld suggests she’ll have a significant part in expanding the family enterprise. According to Steven Knight, the series creator, the film’s narrative will delve into an untold tale from World War II that will draw the Peaky Blinders into its events, as revealed in an interview with Radio Times.

As a lifestyle expert looking back on the captivating finale of our beloved series, it’s clear that Tommy’s journey towards guilt and redemption left an indelible mark. The upcoming film promises to bring this franchise full circle, offering us a satisfying conclusion with Tommy finally atoning for his past transgressions. Joining him in this new chapter are familiar faces such as Ned Dennehy, who breathed life into the character of Charlie Strong, Packy Lee (Johnny Dogs), and Ian Peck (Curly).

Jay Lycurgo is a fresh face in this franchise. He completed filming for a movie led by an Academy Award-winning actor during the summer, but we don’t know yet what role he will play. According to Deadline, new actors joining the franchise include Rebecca Ferguson, Barry Keoghan, Tim Roth, and Stephen Graham.

It appears that Tommy Shelby isn’t done working with me yet, as indicated by the actor’s statement. He expressed his pleasure to be teaming up once more with Steven Knight and Tom Harper on the movie adaptation of ‘Peaky Blinders.’ This project is certainly for the fans, he concluded.

As a lifestyle expert, I’m thrilled to share an intriguing tidbit about the upcoming chapter of Peaky Blinders. In a recent chat with Esquire, our creator Steven Knight hinted that this new installment will welcome a fresh wave of talents into the captivating world of the Shelby family. These actors are not just any faces; they’re the ones you watch and instantly know, “There you go. There’s the future.” They are set to play pivotal roles in shaping the narrative, making this season a must-watch for fans and newcomers alike.

As a dedicated follower who was part of the six-season long blockbuster BBC drama that wrapped up in April 2022, I’m thrilled to announce my role as the scriptwriter and co-producer for an upcoming film. This cinematic endeavor will be a joint production with BBC Film, and I’ll be working alongside Murphy, Patrick Holland, and Guy Heeley. Anticipate the release of this movie on Netflix sometime between late 2025 and early 2026.
