Will there be a season 6 of Peaky Blinders?

The director Anthony Byrne mentioned that it would be great to be prepping again towards the end of 2020, intending to start shooting the early next year, 2021.

He also mentioned that if we start filming in January, we will not be able to finish until May or June. Then its another six months of editing will begin.

All this information concluded that we might not see season 6 Peaky Blinders until the end of 2021 or perhaps early 2022.

What is going to happen in Peaky Blinder season 6?

Every Peak Blinder’s fan has a question in their mind. What will happen in the next season? Byre mentioned that Tommy, with a gun in his hand, will be back in the field in the first image.

Tommy will be the deputy leader of the British Union of Fascists. However, he tried to make a failed assassination attempt on Oswald. But a person betrayed him.

They bully him, threaten him psychologically and physically. Now, the question arises who would you blame for this. Peaky Blinders season 5 episode 6 was described as part one of two.

Therefore, we can imagine that massive cliffhanger who say Tommy fall apart. The upcoming sixth season of Peaky Blinders will be introducing Gina’s family and the people surrounding Oswald.

Gina is an American and comes from an influential American family. However, they are not overtly a crime family. But there is a teed up to be delved into the upcoming season.

Byrne also mentioned that black and gold would be the massive themes of Peaky Blinder season 6. There are some rumors that Mr. Bean himself, Rowan Atkinson, will be the upcoming season’s cast.

Some peaky Blinders season 5 deleted scenes reveal that Polly wants to resign due to Tommy’s work with fascists. As a result, Tommy decided to set up a charity to help soldiers with shell shock.

The show’s creator, Steven Knight, mentioned that he wants to turn Tommy into a good man by the end of the show. So you will get to see a new side of Tommy in season 6. A reasonable person is doing good things.

He also mentioned that the story of season 6 would walk through the second world war.
