Nick Cave’s “Red Right Hand,” the theme song for the original television adaptation of Peaky Blinders, returns with a haunting orchestral version. Amy Taylor of Amyl and The Sniffers takes the lead on the dynamic track “Nobody’s Son.”
Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man marks the first cinematic adaptation of the acclaimed British television series that aired on the BBC from 2013 to 2022. The film stars Cillian Murphy as Tommy Shelby, joined by Barry Keoghan, Tom Roth, and Stephen Graham in key roles.
Created and directed by Steven Knight, the series chronicles the criminal organization in Birmingham, England, following World War I, while Immortal Man explores the Shelby family’s activities during World War II.
Opening in U.K. cinemas on Friday for a limited engagement, the film is set to stream on Netflix beginning March 20.
In a discussion with NME, Genn and Slattery elaborated on their vision for the soundtrack, emphasizing a desire to create “dirty, gritty music.” Genn remarked, “This isn’t meant to sound derogatory to any of the brilliant film composers out there working, but even this isn’t just big, grand Hollywood music. Far from it. It’s got a lot of guts and the feeling of the human hand, brought to you by a lot of brilliant human hearts, minds and souls.”
