Cillian Murphy on Christopher Nolan, Oppenheimer, Peaky Blinders Movie

Cillian Murphy, the guest on this episode of The Hollywood Reporter’s Awards Chatter podcast, is a terrific Irish actor who The New York Times has said is “known for his electrifying, typecast-defying turns in a range of movies, big and small.” Backstage has called him “a chameleonic performer, a character actor trapped in a leading man’s bone structure.” Interview magazine has noted he has had a tremendously impressive career but “is still somehow cruelly underrated, and only getting better.” Murphy’s standout film credits include 2002’s 28 Days Later; 2005’s Breakfast on Pluto, for which he received a best musical/comedy actor Golden Globe nom; and 2021’s A Quiet Place, Part II. He also anchored, between 2013 and 2022, Peaky Blinders, the massively acclaimed drama series about a Birmingham gang during the years between World War I and World War II. It aired on BBC2 in the U.K. and streamed to massive numbers on Netflix. But he is most associated with the films by Christopher Nolan, who describes him as “one of the great actors of his …

Do not miss In a surprise move, Cillian was joined by his wife Yvonne and his lookalike son Aran at the Golden Globes where he picked up the Leading Actor award thanks to his role as J. Robert Oppenheimer in Christopher Nolan’s epic film. At the end of his acceptance speech, Cillian paid tribute to his loved ones, saying: “To my family, I’m the luckiest man. I love you. Thanks so much.” Cillian Murphy with his wife Yvonne and Robert …

People Are Just Realising This Fool Me Once And Peaky Blinders Link

Viewers who’ve been tuning in to Netflix’s new drama Fool Me Once may have felt a bit of déjà vu while they were binge-watching, and we don’t just mean because of the drama’s all-star cast. While watching the eight-part series, which is the latest collaboration between the streaming service and mystery writer Harlan Coben, many viewers couldn’t help feeling a little distracted as they tried to place where they’d seen Joanna Lumley’s character’s elaborate stately home before. And then… the penny finally dropped that the location was previously the home of Tommy Shelby, the character played by Cillian Murphy in Peaky Blinders. Loving ‘Fool me once’ on Netflix but aren’t they using Tommy Shelby’s house? ???? — Charlie Murphy (@CharlieMurphy50) January 2, 2024 Haha. Tbh I knew I recognised it from somewhere but couldn’t place it and it was bugging me. So I looked it up & yeah, Tommy fooking Shelby’s house! It’s Arley Hall in Cheshire. It’s used a lot as a filming location. — Marci Jay she/her (@Darthritis2013) January 2, 2024 Joanna Lumleys …
