Easter Eggs
Charlie Chaplin makes a cameo appearance in Season 2.
In Season 2, the Shelbys meet a silent film star who is revealed to be Charlie Chaplin. This is a nod to the real historical figure, who was of Romani heritage and was born in Birmingham, grounding the fictional Shelby family in a tangible, real-world context. It adds a layer of glamour and historical texture to the Shelbys' rising influence.
