Cillian Murphy: There’s a blurring of lines between me and Tommy in Peaky Blinders film
Cillian Murphy and new co-stars discuss the big-screen return of Peaky Blinders, with Murphy teasing a blur between Tommy Shelby and himself in The Immortal Man.
From the moment Cillian Murphy’s Tommy Shelby first rode into a Birmingham slum in 2013, the series carved out a cultural moment with its moody visuals and a razor-sharp, post-war world. Now, as Peaky Blinders heads to cinema screens with The Immortal Man, Murphy hints at something different: there’s a blurring of lines between him and Tommy as the actor navigates a story that threads grief, power, and a city on the edge. Set in 1940, the film invites audiences into a chapter that feels both familiar and newly expansive, carrying the show’s signature cool into a broader, cinematic cadence.
