In an interview with Radio Times, Byrne said: "It's such a 'Peaky' thing to do for the last hurrah. It's the 10:22 news for one night only.”

He said: "It feels very, very different to the rest of the season. It feels very, very different to anything we've done before. It's very epic in scope. It feels like a film – it's a kind of dry run for the feature film."
Details of who will be starring in the upcoming remain a secret, likely to be determined by the series’ two remaining episodes.
In an interview with Radio Times, the show’s creator Steven Knight said that the film would start shooting sometime in 2023. Knight added that the film would serve as an: "Untold story that happened in the Second World War, which the Peakys are going to be involved in.”
