Peaky Blinders Creator's Hit Netflix Drama Finally Has Future Confirmed – 9 Months After Series Release

The renewal follows strong reviews and an 89% audience approval on Rotten Tomatoes after the first season ended on a major cliffhanger.

  • Netflix has greenlit a second season of House of Guinness, the period drama created by Stephen Knight, with production scheduled to begin in early 2027.
  • Set in 1860s Ireland, the eight-part first season followed heirs of brewing mogul Sir Benjamin Guinness vying for control, earning an 89% audience approval on Rotten Tomatoes.
  • Led by actors Anthony Boyle and Louis Partridge, the ensemble cast starred in a drama critics likened to Succession-meets-Peaky Blinders, though the show faced criticism in Ireland for historical inaccuracies.
  • Creator Knight told the Irish Mirror he plans a Peaky Blinders-style expansion, aiming to produce seasons leading into the 1960s, though his James Bond film work leaves his involvement uncertain.
  • Produced by Banijay-owned Kudos, the series ended on a major cliffhanger that left fans anticipating resolution when production begins in 2027.
