Ahead of the film's Netflix release this week, we spoke with Harper about returning to the franchise now it's a major global hit, and asking Nick Cave to record a new version of his iconic track – and Peaky theme tune – Red Right Hand.
We didn’t know what it would become, obviously, but we had real cinematic aspirations for it and to be able to realise that was too good an opportunity to miss.
Yes, when we put that scene together in the edit it immediately felt wrong with the original Red Right Hand, which feels like Tommy’s a young man, full of bravado and swagger and cool. Of course, Tommy still has some of those things, but he’s broken and he’s cracked.
So, we went back to Nick and he re-recorded it for us and I think it works perfectly. Tommy and Nick match each other a little bit. Nick’s older, wiser and sadder maybe. There’s tragedy in his voice, it’s more cracked, more broken. It’s beautiful and human.
