The exact plot hasn’t been released at the time of writing, but the sequel will be set in World War II.

Knight has commented that the story will integrate “three true stories” from the war, including “unknown stories” from the era. Knight has also commented earlier that Tommy Shelby will have a redemption arc of sorts in the film.

“My intention has always been to redeem him so that, in the end, he’s genuinely a good man doing good things,” he commented in an interview. While the character has performed, and ordered, morally suspect actions, Season 6 sees the character in increasing opposition to rising fascist forces building into World War II.
