Peaky Blinders movie: Cillian Murphy spotted filming Peaky Blinders movie along West Midlands canal

Cillian Murphy has been spotted again as Tommy Shelby as the latest scenes for the Peaky Blinders film took place against a wintry backdrop in the Black Country.

The Irish actor was pictured looking relaxed on a towpath wearing the gangster's trademark flatcap and three-piece suit along the Dudley Canal earlier today (Wednesday, November 20).

The 48-year-old braved subzero conditions as filming continued for the hotly anticipated movie at the freezing beauty spot in Netherton.

The area around Bumble Hole was closed off to the public and mooring for narrowboats suspended as filming took place in the nature reserve.

But fans still clamoured to try and get a glimpse of Cillian as he shot scenes on a barge as it travelled along the canal at Warrens Hall Nature Reserve.

One onlooker said: "Despite the freezing conditions, he looked pretty relaxed and was laughing and joking with the cast and crew.

"They shot scenes on a narrowboat which went up and down the canal and a fair number of fans had gathered to try and get a look at him.

"If they wanted some atmospheric wintry shots for the film, they've picked the perfect day for it."

The nature reserve and the Dudley Canal that passes through it was used as an outdoor film set by Oblik Productions Ltd for the second time in a number of weeks.

A large quantity of props, including coal sacks, barrels and carts, could also be seen gathered on site alongside canal boats.

The Peaky Blinders film, named "The Immortal Man", will appear on Netflix and is set to be released either late 2025 or early 2026.

The gritty BBC series ran from 2013 to 2022 and followed the rise of the Shelby family from after the First World War.

The film is now expected to pick up the family's fortunes a few years later entering the Second World War years.
