'If there’s more story there, I’d love to do it. But it has to be right...we left on such a high...it would have to feel legitimate and justified to do more.' — Cillian Murphy tells RollingStoneUK about a potential Peaky Blinders movie Interview:
“But I always hoped I could play a lead in a Chris Nolan movie. What actor wouldn’t want to do that?”
Such is the case with his near-decade of playing Tommy Shelby, the World War I veteran turned criminal kingpin ofa monosyllabic working man who is nevertheless constantly lost in a web of thought and memory. And inhe plays the complicated scientist who became a symbol for our collective ambivalence about nuclear weapons and the American deployment of them in Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945.
“They’re really good boys,” he says, affectionately. “We don’t do ‘Dad’s Movie Night,’ but they like some of my films. They say all my films are really intense.”Murphy has become something more than an actor with a recognizable face: He’s synonymous with his character Tommy Shelby, which is an uneasy negotiation for Murphy. “It can ruin experiences, because it fetishizes everything: You can be walking down the street and someone takes a picture, like this is a fucking event.
Later, he sighs while relating how “interviews are like commuting. You have to commute to get to your destination. I don’t really partake.” He adds, “I don’t go out. I’m just at home mostly, or with my friends, unless I have a film to promote. I don’t like being photographed by people.”
