Barry Keoghan was recently announced for the new Peaky Blinders film, and it seems he'll be taking things literally.
The Saltburn star will be joining Cillian Murphy and Rebecca Ferguson for the new film, and he has some ideas in mind of how to achieve the perfect role, and it involves less screen time.
He's 'excited and nervous' about joining the franchise, and Keoghan wants it to be authentic.

He told Entertainment Weekly: “Yes, yes, yes – I can’t wait for that. [I’m a] massive, massive fan of the show, and Cillian [Murphy]’s a good friend and I f****** admire him as an actor as well.
"So just looking to get into that and getting my process now – I have a process I do, and I’ve not done it for a long while, so I’m excited and nervous at the same time.”
Keoghan continued: “Just being on set, that rusty feeling again. Just shaking off all the cobwebs. I’ve been doing a lot of promotion and I’ve been chilling, and I think people get scared when they find themselves having free time.
“I think sometimes it’s the best thing to grow as an actor and as a person, and so I’ve had that time and I’m looking forward now to getting in and doing the creative, method-y thing.”
“They had no phones back then, so I’m going to be off my phone,” he joked. “Going to have to write letters.”
We have to be patient to find out which character Barry will be playing on the show.
Creator of the show, Steven Knight said: “I think the film is gonna be a step up again, and it’s gonna be great that Peaky fans can meet in one place and watch it.
“The budget will be bigger, but also because we know we’re ending this chapter, we’re all going to try to do our best. Cillian [Murphy] is really up for it. So I can’t wait for it to start shooting.”
