In this sense, fans are intrigued wanting to know what will be the character that Stephen Graham will play in Season 6 of Peaky Blinders. Speaking on the matter exclusively with the Digital Spy medium, Steven Knight referred to the character played by the actor in season 6. This he told the medium:
“I always wanted him to be in [the character]. A character was starting to develop in the Liverpool docks. And you just think, well, there can’t be anyone else for this character.”
“So he’s someone who’s up against Tommy, who isn’t really an enemy.”
According to Knight’s statements, who will face Tommy Shelby in season 6 of Peaky Blinders is the character of Stephen Graham, about which he did not reveal further details. And although he is not his enemy, it would be interesting to see what will be the reasons that will motivate him to confront the dangerous criminal businessman played by Cillian Murphy.
