, Cillian Murphy
Born on the 25th May 1976 in Douglas, County Cork, Ireland, Cillian is an accomplished actor and musician, with over 50 roles in films and TV titles since the start of his career. He is the oldest child and has two younger sisters and a younger brother. Cillian studied law, but quit before the first year ended, as he became much more focused on music than on academics. Before he became a famed musician, Cillian performed with several rock ‘n’ roll bands, most notably The Sons of Mr. Greengenes, and it was during one of his many gigs across the UK that he met Yvonne. However, once his acting career got going, he stopped performing musically, but has continued to play with friends and family. He came to prominence in 2013 with the part of Thomas Shelby in the crime-drama series “Peaky Blinders”, and since then has made a number of successful appearances, including as Josef Gabcik in the film “Anthropoid” (2016). He has also been active on stage, with the most prominent role as Konstantine in the play “Seagull” in 2003. His wealth is estimated at $15 million, as of mid- 2018.

Quotes
#Quote1[Asked whether he finds himself drawn to dark characters] For me, drama is conflict. I'm not interested in a good man's life. I'm interested in contradiction. I'm interested in pressure, I'm interested in duress. All the great works of art, or film or literature, in my opinion, have elements of those in them. Because who wants to write about happy people?2I've always felt that the less the public knows about you, the more effective you can be when you go to portray someone else.3I think there's such a thing as a performance gene. If it's in your DNA it needs to come out. For me it originally came out through music, then segued into acting and came out through there. I always needed to get up and perform.4I'm not worried about being pegged, but it's important for me to knock down any perceptions of me that are out there.5"To me, someone's sexuality is usually the least interesting thing about them. It's secondary. The only reason it becomes a source for dramatic storytelling is because people have made such an issue out of it." - About his character in (2005)6Too many filmmakers today are trying to put their work into a box. I can't stand that! Making movies is a lot of work. Let's take some risks.7But you can make wonderful films within a small, independent environment and you can make wonderful films in Los Angeles, within the studio system. You hear a lot of actors saying, 'I'd never go to Hollywood and sell out.' But, if it's a good script and a good director, why not? To shut oneself off completely is, I think, very limiting.8Today I pick and choose my films very carefully. There's nothing I've done so far that I can't talk about with commitment and passion.9If you behave like a celebrity, then people will treat you like a celebrity, and if you don't, they won't. There's not much to write about me in the tabloids.10Journalists have a myopic view of your versatility. They're like 'You only play the creep'.11"I don't know if anyone will ever sit beside me on a plane again." - On his role as a terrorist in (2005).12I've a very, very close-knit group of friends from Ireland. They and my family are the most important things to me.13It's easy to take the check, you know, but if you want to have any longevity, just take things that have artistic merit in them. I want to do quality. If it's good telly, I'll do it. If it's good theater, I'll do it.14If there's an opportunity to work with , you can't really turn that down. He's made some of the finest films of the past 25 years. Whether you like or dislike his movies, there's never a bad performance in them, ever. There's none of the bullshit. There's no trailers, no nonsense, no pampering. It's a breath of fresh air.15"Well, we are doppelgangers." - On that nearly played Scarecrow, Cillian's role in (2005), in an early attempted adaptation.16"I can have a bit of fun with it, too, because my only motivation really is being bad. I love doing proper dramatic character studies, but it's also good to have a bit of fun, dress up and stuff". - On accepting the role of the Scarecrow in (2005).17"Well, the first part of the question, I think if you ask any male if you really want to get into a real suit, that was a dream come true, obviously, and then just to get to work with Chris, even for that little test, was amazing as well; and then, I don't know, he saw something in it that he thought maybe he could use for the other characters" - On auditioning for (2005).18"You're an actor who's Irish, not an Irish actor. And you shouldn't be limited by your extraction." - On breaking the Irish type cast.19It's basically lazy journalism if they say I'm the new . This thing about heat, it's all just hot air.20I'd probably have been wealthier if I had stayed with law, but pretty miserable doing it.
