Under The Radar

As the tortured creator of the atomic bomb in Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer, the unassuming Irish actor Cillian Murphy is shortly to embark on his starriest film role to date. But first, there is the bruising business of bidding farewell—perhaps forever (perhaps, tantalisingly, not?)—to another tormented man of violence: the terrifying Tommy Shelby, of Peaky Blinders. At home in Dublin, on the eve of the final series, Murphy reflects on his years as one of TV’s greatest-ever gangsters and the tragic loss of his co-star, the ‘magnificent’ Helen McCrory.
