"It is set in World War Two, it's brilliant, it's great. It's got Barry Keoghan who is wonderful, and Cillian (Murphy), and Rebecca Ferguson and Tim Roth and it is immense."

Called The Immortal Man, the picture will serve as a follow-up to the beloved programme which spanned six series until 2022.

When asked if he believed House of Guinness would match Peaky Blinders' triumph, he continued: "I think it's got the same buzz as Peaky.

"It has happened more quickly than Peaky, but it's got the same feel.

"I'm very optimistic that it's going to have the same international appeal that Peaky did."

In a 2023 interview with Rolling Stone, Tommy Shelby star Murphy revealed he'd be prepared to return to the character "if there's more story there".

"But it has to be right," he added. "Steve Knight wrote 36 hours of television, and we left on such a high.

"I'm really proud of that last series. So, it would have to feel legitimate and justified to do more."

The film is also expected to see the return of Stephen Graham, Sophie Rundle, Ned Dennehy, Packy Lee, and Ian Peck.

Filming wrapped in December and it took place in St Helens, Merseyside.
