Stephen Graham is threatening in thrilling trailer for Peaky Blinders creator's new drama
The Victorian boxing drama will arrive on Disney Plus next month.
The full-length trailer has been unveiled for A Thousand Blows, the new series from Peaky Blinders and SAS Rogue Heroes creator Steven Knight.
The trailer sees Malachi Kirby's Hezekiah Moscow arrive with his friend Alec Munroe (Francis Lovehall) in 1880s London from Jamaica, and meet Erin Doherty's Mary Carr, the queen of all-female gang the Forty Elephants.
Mary sets about exploiting Hezekiah's talent for boxing in the underground criminal fighting scene, but the menacing self-declared emperor of that world, Stephen Graham's Sugar Goodson, vows to destroy him.
