A Thousand Blows: Underground boxing from the creator of Peaky Blinders

While we are impatiently waiting for the Peaky Blinders film directed by Tom Harper (Agent Stone) for Netflix, Steven Knight, the creator of the saga about Thomas Shelby, has not been twiddling his thumbs. He has just signed a series for Hulu (in the USA) and Disney+ (in France): A Thousand Blows. The first trailer has just been released.

A Thousand Blows, written by Steven Knight (Peaky Blinders), will tell in 6 episodes how the Jamaican Hezekiah (Malachi Kirby) finds himself plunged into the violence of the post-industrial revolution of the Victorian era.

Fascinated by the underground boxing matches in London, he meets Mary Carr (Erin Doherty), the leader of the Forty Elephants, a famous female gang who fights daily for its survival…

For the moment, A Thousand Blows does not yet have a release date on Disney+ but judging by the images, we can't wait.
