LONDON: Mr Bean famed actor Rowan Atkinson is rumoured to be playing Adolf Hitler in the sixth season of Netflix’s Peaky Blinders.
Peaky Blinders season six has faced significant delays due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. The new series is expected to air in 2021 or 2022 and fans are eager to more about the plot and cast of series six.
The actor’s name had been repeatedly coming up in the series wherever Hitler has been mentioned. However, nothing has been confirmed by the makers or the cast of the show.
At the end of Peaky Blinders season five, Tommy’s plan to assassinate fascist politician Oswald Mosley (Sam Claflin) was sabotaged. The new series will most likely follow Oswald as he seeks revenge and will hopefully see Tommy get to the bottom of who sabotaged his plans.
The real Mosley was also a friend of Hitler and had met Italy’s fascist dictator, Benito Mussolini. As a result of Mosley and Hitler’s friendship, Peaky fans think Hitler may make an appearance in the new series.
In an interview, the director of the hit Netflix series Peaky Blinders said, “It picks up directly. So, the very first image you will see will be back in that field.” He added, “Tommy, with a gun to his head. Then, we will move on from there, we resolve that amazing moment – it’s great.”
