Is Brad Pitt about to start in the new Peaky Blinders film alongside Cillian Murphy?
That’s the rumor that’s going around, and if I had the power to make that happen I would!
Steven Knight, the creator of the Netflix series Peaky Blinders, announced that the Peaky Blinders movie will start shooting in September, with a release date in 2025.
The Peaky Blinders story was supposed to be told over the course of 7 seasons, but due to Covid they had to cut it down to 6 seasons. This new movie will continue telling the story in the place of the 7th season, with Cillian Murphy reprise his role as Thomas Shelby.
It’s understood that Brad Pitt pitched himself to become part of the Peaky Blinders series years before the announcement of the upcoming movie.
So could we see Brad Putt wearing a Baker Boy Cap delivering his lines standing next to Cillian Murphy?
There’s nothing official, but there have been a number of other celebrities, including Snoop Dogg and A$AP Rocky, who’ve also tried to get a role in the Peaky Blinders series.
I personally think Brad Pitt could definitely rock one of those Baker Boy Caps that Peaky Blinders has helped make popular again.
The Baker Boy Caps, which are often confused for flat caps, but gangs adapted them by sewing razor blades into the peak of their flat caps for use as a weapon to blind their enemies.
That’s just the sort of ruthlessness that Brad Pitt’s character would crush if he were cast in the new Peaky Blinders movie!
