Brian Gleeson and Charlene McKenna are set to join the cast of Peaky Blinders.
The pair were announced as the latest additions to the gangster series, alongside Hollyoaks star, Emmett J. Scanlan, former Fair City actor, Daryl McCormack, The Hunger Games star, Sam Claflin and The Witch‘s Anya Taylor-Joy.
Speaking of his new role in the programme, Brian released a statement that said he is “looking forward to kicking around in the mud of Northern England with an exceptional cast and crew. The scripts are wild and pertinent – a classic Peaky brew.”
Also showing his excitement for the show, Sam said: “From Steven Knight’s writing to the consistently brilliant production, I couldn’t feel more privileged to be invited to join this iconic show.”
The new additions to the programme are set to make their Peaky Blinders debut in the upcoming fifth season, which is currently being filmed in Manchester.
The new season is set to be aired on BBC Two next year.
