Cillian Murphy

Cillian at ‘The Party’ UK Premiere, 61st BFI London Film Festival 

Part of my desire to do my job well means not being a celebrity. I would just be crap at it anyway—red carpets just make me nervous. But even if I could handle all that, I don’t think I want to be popping up in the morning papers, waving to the crowd at some premiere. The less people know about Cillian Murphy the easier it is for me to do my job. — Cillian Murphy, Event Guide April 6 2007

Cillian has had a blinder of a year. He hit the big screen all-guns-blazing in Free Fire, won hearts and minds as the shell-shocked soldier in Christopher Nolan’s magnificent Dunkirk and, this autumn, he returns in a role that he has made his own – as everyone’s favourite Brummy bad-man, Tommy Shelby, in the fourth series of one of the most deliciously British dramas ever made, Peaky Blinders. No wonder it counts the likes of Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt as super fans. — Cillian Murphy is GQ Television Actor of the Year
