Peaky Blinders favourite Tom Hardy will make a dramatic return in scenes to come, but it wasn’t always on the cards for him to come back for the finale.
Peaky Blinders returned last weekend after more than two years away from screens, with the explosive opener fans had been waiting for, ever since.
However, one person who was missing was Tom Hardy’s character Alfie Solomons, who had an important role to play in the season five finale.
But, with it confirmed he will definitely be back at some point in this series., show creator Steven Knight previously revealed to Metro.co.uk that Tom Hardy had input on the decision for the character to return.
Asked whether the plan was ‘always’ for Solomons to return in the final season, he told us: ‘The plan changed, let me put it that way – because Tom does love this character.’
It was thought Alfie was dead after being shot by Tommy in season four, following multiple betrayals from the Jewish gang leader.
