In the gritty period drama 'A Thousand Blows,' Stephen Graham plays Sugar Goodson, an undefeated illegal boxing champion in Victorian London facing new rivals. His co-stars, Malachi Kirby and Erin Doherty, highlight the extensive physical training they underwent for their roles. The series intertwines themes of rivalry and empowerment, as Doherty's character leads an all-female gang seeking liberation in a way reminiscent of the suffragettes. As anticipation builds, Graham's performance is expected to deliver a menacing portrayal that fans of his previous work will find compelling.
"If you thought Graham was menacing as Combo in This Is England or as Al Capone in Boardwalk Empire, just wait until you see A Thousand Blows."
"Doherty sees the Forty Elephants as akin to the suffragettes. Like their more famous sisters, the Elephants are also seeking emancipation but using different methods."
