By order of the Peaky Blinders, presenting the first look of OG Cillian Murphy as Tommy Shelby in the upcoming movie. Cillian Murphy famously starred as the Birmingham gangland boss Tommy Shelby in the insanely popular television drama Peaky Blinders. Cillian Murphy is a social media recluse so the makers shared some BTS photos from the film set. “By order of the Peaky Blinders… Tommy Shelby is back. Cillian Murphy and Steven Knight are reunited on set as production officially starts on the upcoming Netflix film,” read the caption on it.
Keeping calm is not an option for the Internet. An excited fan wrote in the comments section of the post, “Oh we are so back.” Another one added, “Thomas Shelby is back by order of the peaky blinders.” Another one wrote, “Can we get Arthur too.” A series of Peaky Blinders-related GIFs dominated the comments section of the post.
