Fans of Peaky Blinders are in for a treat as Steven Knight, the creator behind the hit period drama, unveils his latest project, A Thousand Blows. The series, which has just dropped its official trailer, is set to make waves when it premieres on February 21 on Hulu in the U.S. and Disney+ internationally.
In the trailer, actor Stephen Graham delivers a chilling performance, this time portraying a criminal kingpin and notorious boxer. Known for his unforgettable role as Hayden Stagg in Peaky Blinders, Graham’s portrayal promises another standout role. Based on the trailer alone, viewers can expect an intense, gritty experience, and, frankly, it looks like he’s one character to be feared.
The series is set in the criminal underworld of 1880s London’s East End and follows the journey of two Jamaican friends as they navigate a violent and dangerous environment. True to Knight’s signature style, A Thousand Blows appears packed with high-octane action and suspense.
The show features a diverse cast, including a Black Mirror actor who appears nearly unrecognizable in his new role, alongside notable talent such as Erin Doherty (who portrayed Princess Anne in The Crown) and Francis Lovehall, known for his role in Masters of the Air on Apple TV+.
While it’s still too early to make predictions, the trailer alone hints that A Thousand Blows could be a strong contender for spots in the best Hulu shows and best Disney+ shows roundups for 2025.
