Cillian Murphy Opens Up About Relationship With Peaky Blinders Co-Stars

In a surprising revelation, Cillian Murphy, the star of the hit show “Peaky Blinders,” shared some insight into his off-screen relationships with his co-stars. Despite the on-screen chemistry shared by the cast, Murphy disclosed to Variety that they didn’t actually spend much time together outside of filming.

Reflecting on the 10th anniversary of “Peaky Blinders” in 2022, Murphy admitted that due to the intense nature of the shoot, which often required long hours for months on end, the cast didn’t socialize much off-set. “It’s been an adventure!” Murphy exclaimed when discussing his experience working with his co-stars. “Throughout ‘Peaky,’ there’s been a lot of different cast members, and we’ve had other directors,” he added. “Because it is such an intense shoot due to the nature of the material, and because we are working about 16 hours a day for about five months, we don’t tend to hang out socially when we aren’t shooting. … I think that’s only because we see so much of each other when we work.”
