Peaky Blinders Season 6 does not have an official premiere date but we have good idea what to expect in the new episodes. There are many things that need to be discussed. The Anthropoid actor, Cillian Murphy is set to reprise his role as Thomas Shelby aka Tommy in the imminent sixth season following the drama’s latest cliffhanger.

The filming for Peaky Blinders Season 6 already began in November 2018. Creator Steven Knight says it is ready for the viewers of Peaky Blinders. “I’ve just finished writing series six, and it’s the best yet, but we always say that,” Steven Knight said.

The series viewers were introduced real-life politician Oswald Mosley (played by Sam Claflin) in Peaky Blinders Season 5. He squared up against Tommy across the previous season and has been confirmed for returning, Express noted. Fans are passionately eager to know what he will be doing in Season 6.

Will Oswald Mosley meet Adolf Hitler in Peaky Blinders Season 6? The fictional character Oswald Mosley is based on real politician Sir Oswald Ernald Mosley, a British politician who rose to fame in the 1920s as a Member of Parliament and later in the 1930s became leader of the British Union of Fascists. He inherited the title ‘Sir’ by virtue of his baronetcy.

After Oswald Mosley’s first wife, Cynthia Curzon’s death in 1933, he married his mistress Diana Guinness. They married in secret in Germany on October 6, 1936 in the Berlin home of Germany’s Minister of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda Joseph Goebbels. Adolf Hitler was their guest of honour. He spent large amount of his private fortune on the British Union of Fascists and gave his endeavor to establish it on a firm financial footing by various means including an attempt to negotiate, through Diana, with Adolf Hitler for permission to broadcast commercial radio to Britain from Germany.

Mosley was also given the task of pleading for the British to accept Adolf Hitler’s peace offer of March. However, he was detained in May, 1940 just after Winston Churchill became the Prime Minister.

As far as Sam Clafin’s returning in Peaky Blinders Season 6 is concerned, he already gave some hints to UPROXX in October last year. “Not long after the 30s, he married Lady Diana Mitford, who herself was quite a notorious human being,” he said.

“Their wedding was at Joseph Goebbels’ summer house, one of the nastiest Nazis ever, and Adolf Hitler was in attendance, so that is a life event I would like to portray on Peaky Blinders. Tommy Shelby and Hitler in a room together would be quite eventful,” he added while commenting on Peaky Blinders Season 6.

If that’s the case, Adolf Hitler is likely to make an appearance given the new series will be set in 1934. However, Steven Knight earlier said he did not have plan to include Hitler as a character in the show. “No, I wouldn’t want to portray Hitler. It’s too horrible,” Knight said to Express.

On the other hand, in Peaky Blinders Season 6, Cillian Murphy is expected to be joined by Paul Anderson, Harry Kirton and Sophie Rundle, who played the roles of Arthur Shelby, Finn Shelby and Ada Thorne respectively. Natasha O'Keeffe is highly expected as her character Lizzie Stark's relationship with Tommy is likely to be focused in Peaky Blinders Season 6. Season 5 exposed them as a married couple after she announced her pregnancy to him at the end of Season 4. Many fans believe their love tale will be continued in the upcoming season and Tommy will be in love with her while raising their kids.

Peaky Blinders Season 6 does not have an official release date. Stay tuned to Devdiscourse to get the latest updates on the television series.
