Recently, Peaky Blinders star Finn Cole (Michael Gray) revealed that he’s comfortable if Steven kills him in season 6. He said: “I’m fully ready with it because I know that is what best for the character. Since he will have exhausted all of that character’s opportunities.” Further, Anthony explained: “Yeah, it’s certainly set up that way, and that’s very much at the forefront of what you’re heading into.”
It’s pretty evident that Micheal Grey tries to take Shelby Company Ltd, but all his attempts failed. Even his mother Polly resigns from the company. So he followed another path to take the lead on that company. As of now, Micheal is enemy in season 6, but how far his story continues that only Steven Knight knows.
