Peaky Blinders released a first Season 5 trailer in July that shows Tommy meeting Oswald Mosley (Sam Claflin), a charismatic politician. Mosley was a real-life Parliament member who became the leader of the British Union of Fascists.
Murphy and Claflin discussed Tommy and Mosley's dynamic at the Season 5 premiere in July.
"[Tommy's] playing a big boys' game -- playing chess if you will -- and Mosley is someone who's grown up playing chess," Murphy said.
"[They] try to outwit one another using each other to try and better themselves and get ahead," Claflin added.
Peaky Blinders is created by Steven Knight and co-stars Helen McCrory and Paul Anderson.
