'Peaky Blinders': Meet Cillian Murphy, the blue-eyed Irish lad who brought us Thomas Shelby, among other diverse roles

He has been the scarecrow, a post-apocalyptic survivor, and a villain with a traumatic past, Cillian Murphy is truly an actor in every sense
PUBLISHED FEB 13, 2019

When it comes to portraying a villain with an extremely sensitive face, no one can be a better fit than Irish actor Cillian Murphy. Known to be Christopher Nolan's go-to-guy, this 42-year-old actor is in demand by every director when it comes to playing cold-hearted and oddly-proffered villains or anti-heroes.

Murphy plays the role of the cunning yet admirable gangster, Thomas Shelby, in BBC One's show, 'Peaky Blinders'. Coming from creator Steven Knight, the show, which follows the Shelby family as they lead the notorious Birmingham gang Peaky Blinders, is all set to return with its fifth season in late Spring.
