The actor, who is nominated for the EE Rising Star award at this year’s Baftas, will be joining the BBC drama for its final series.
Speaking to NME, Khan said that joining the show had been a “dream come true”.
“The script is amazing,” he said. “When I had my first audition, I was like ‘This is so cool that I get to read this’, I couldn’t believe it and then when I got the part, it really was a dream come true.”

“It’s always, you know, really rock and roll,” she told Digital Spy. “But it’s the last series, [so] everyone’s going to be really going for it. It feels exciting and sad. We’re all really pleased that we’re getting to make it and tell more of the story.”
In January, the BBC confirmed that Peaky Blinders was coming to an end after its forthcoming series.
However, it was reported that the story would continue in “another form”, with creator Steven Knight confirming that a film adaptation was “going to happen”.
