Netflix Peaky Blinders Movie Trailer: Tommy returns to battle
The trailer, released "by order of the people at Netflix, " runs slightly more than two minutes and opens with an older, greying Tommy Shelby driven back from a self-imposed exile, the film's press notes say. The notes set the stakes plainly: "With the future of the family and the country at stake, Tommy must face his own demons, and choose whether to confront his legacy, or burn it to the ground. "
New faces, old wounds on Small Heath
The cast additions visible in the trailer include Rebecca Ferguson and Tim Roth, while Barry Keoghan appears as Duke Shelby, Tommy's illegitimate firstborn son who is now running the Peaky Blinders. The trailer shows Ferguson warning Tommy: "You abandoned your kingdom and you abandoned your son, " and Sophie Rundle's Ada telling him: "Your gypsy son is running the Peaky Blinders like it's 1919, all over again. "
