Academy Award Winner Adrian Brody has been cast in the fourth season of British period crime drama, Peaky Blinders. 

As Season Three left us on an appropriate knife edge – with one betrayal set to turn the status quo for the Shelby Family on its head – Brody will join the likes of Cillian Murphy, Tom Hardy, Helen McCrory, Paul Anderson, Joe Cole, Sophie Rundle, Finn Cole, Aimee-Ffion Edwards and Kate Phillips. 

So far, just who Brody will play has been kept under wraps but Creator Steven Knight says: 

“He genuinely was the actor in my head when I wrote the part. I’m sure he will be a formidable presence in the world of the Peaky Blinders.”

BBC Drama Controller Piers Wenger said of the casting:

“[He is] a world class actor famous for producing mesmerizing performances. I cannot wait to see him in action alongside the rest of Peaky Blinders‘ superb cast bringing Steven Knight’s extraordinary writing to life on BBC Two.”

Hopefully, he’ll have mastered the brummie accent as shooting is underway now with Spring 2018 the likely air date on BBC Two in the UK and then Netflix after the season has aired.
