Cillian Murphy & Steven Knight Peaky Blinders Exclusive Interview

[@england655]

Sometimes I forget that Tommy is just a character, great actor

[@burrenmagic]

So true. Very real guy/actor.

[@luguy8347]

England I know, just worshiped him in Peaky Blinders, spell binding.

[@elleshort7727]

I wish he wasn’t just a character I want him as tommy with the hair,hat,suits and especially the accent

[@dawnmason9558]

Cillian Murphy has said that when he is Tommy he IS Tommy. He becomes him to the point that when he goes home he just learns his lines & goes to bed cos he is not sociable as Tommy.

[@elleshort7727]

Dawn Mason I know

[@juliajohansson7058]

Cillian Murphy looks like he just wants to go home, yet he’s not recognized as the brilliant actor he truly is. The Hollywood style isn’t appealing to him which makes him even more respectable because he’s a straight personality and his passion for acting can be seen in his roles.

[@agentofchaos4437]

he's completely underrated. He is relatively laid back compared to most interviews you see him in.

[@kelseyk530]

He's like Christian Bale in that way. Hating Paparazzi and press and interviews. Maybe it's a more method, British thing.

[@Minqueable]

The Peaky Blinders was one of the most mind blowing series I've seen. But what can't escape my mind is, that Caillan is so ridiculously handsome. Like a statue, just perfect.

[@luguy8347]

Peaky Blinders my most favourite show of all time, on any size screen. Richly developed, action packed, character driven, visually beautiful and written exquisitely. Cillian is a powerful actor. Stunning, sharp and addictive. Nothing compares.

[@dominiqueratefy4317]

exactly, exactly , that's why very addictive

[@Al_562]

Just finished the series and I need a whiskey and a smoke by order of the PEAKY FOOKING BLINDERS!

[@ettabrooke6098]

I'd be so damn intimated to speak to Cillian just because of his normal expression😂 Hahaha love him though!

[@gaylecividino593]

My husband and I started watching Peaky Blinders and the first thing I said during the first episode was "what an absolutely brilliant mind wrote this"! Then the music! Now a huge fan of Nick Cave, Joy Division and so many others. Made it a mission to see as many works as possible that cast members have been involved with and have not been disappointed! We are anxiously waiting for season six!

[@abhisikta6904]

Oh my god you and me both. I too discovered Nick Cave and Joy Division through this series and I'm such a fan of their music now. And now I'm on a Cillian Murphy spree again because I re-watched the series while yearning for S6.

[@NaomiBarocsi]

There is no one who looks more like a mysterious brooding badboy than Cillian Murphy and that gets me weak af 😫🤤😍

[@danielhurley2894]

At the end, Steven Knight says "I'd love to take Tommy to the start of the 2nd World War." He pretty much got his wish, didn't he? I loved this program. Now that the last season is over, I'm going to start watching it from the beginning again. It's the 3rd best series I have ever watched - - after Breaking Bad and The Sopranos.

[@reklamedamereloaded]

I sometimes wonder, whether Cillian understands how much he - as an actor - influenced this period...

Clearly Cillian is a highly intelligent chap, and is a superb actor, who should go far. One of 'our' best. The Brummy accent is not that authentic, but what he does he does it brilliantly.

[@queenmav21]

I was surprised at first with Steven Knight's reaction to the question about Boardwalk Empire(B.E.), it was a wonderful opportunity to promote how unique a perspective his own show really has to that particular time period's genre. He did say that he purposely doesn't watch B.E. because he feels like it might end up influencing his work. I'm hoping that once he is done with the Peaky Blinders series, he might watch an episode of B.E. and realize that his show holds up much more both in entertainment value and complexity of story, all within a 6 episode first season. I liked B.E. for the first few seasons, but it seemed to eventually be limited and almost stagnated by the stereotypical 'American 1920's' that Hollywood seems to heavily adhere to. However, Peaky Blinders and its intriguing focus on a particular ethnic/cultural niche of the working class people of the industrial Birmingham society (post WWI) creates a new interest in that place, time, and perspective in history.

[@darkmistress1980]

Megan Vassar i loved watching boardwalk empire thats what originally got me in to this show. i agree that it does have a very similar feel to it

[@GaelinW]

I recently read an interview where he said he doesn't watch much tv or movies because he doesn't want to be influenced by others. Shame but I can understand where he's coming from.

[@gaylecividino593]

Watched BE after Peaky Blinders and I must agree that after the first few episodes, BE became trashy. Friends who have also watched Peaky Blinders agree that the show is of quality that that has not been seen for years coming out of the US. Great writing by Steven Knight, work by the entire production crew and especially the cast!

[@AnnaLVajda]

I thought Boardwalk was a really beautifully shot show also. I liked Deadwood as well though the setting was more lewd but the language and writing excellent disappointed there was only about 3 seasons of it.

[@chelsVlogsaround0699]

So if every series is 2 years later we had 1919. 1921, 1923 so we would need 8 more series or bigger jumps. I am up to watch 8 more series and l hope they get a chance so to do that. We we are gonna get to 1927 at least as we know there is series 4 and 5. Omg are we gonna see little Charlie becoming part of the gang? 😂😂😂

[@GaelinW]

Season 4 is 1925 but season 5 jumps to 1929 and the writer wants the series to end at the beginning of WWII so in about 10 yrs after season 5. Also say they want to do season 6 and 7 if allowed.
