One Co-Star Cillian Murphy Would Be Thrilled To Work With Again (And It Might Happen Soon)

Although Cillian Murphy may have just gained newfound fame after the release of Oppenheimer, his longtime fans are currently waiting for another, arguably even more exciting project for him to take part in. Peaky Blinders has been on the minds of viewers for as long as it has been teased by creator Steven Knight.

As it turns out, it's not just the fans who are patiently waiting for the return of their favorite story. Cillian Murphy himself would be just as excited to return to the Peaky Blinders universe if only he had the chance.

The actor opened up about his hopes for the upcoming movie during an interview with GQ magazine. When asked about Tom Hardy and any plans to work together again, Murphy admitted that he'd be thrilled to get the chance to share the screen with his former co-star:

"He's one of the best actors in the business. And we've developed this great trust and shorthand and there's a nice kind of chemistry, I think, between the two of us. I'd love to work with him again. Maybe there'll be a Peaky Blinders film. Maybe we'll get to do it there. I'm not sure," the actor said.

But that doesn't mean that Peaky Blinders fans should get their hopes up just yet. Unfortunately, there have been no updates on the status of the movie even for the cast and crew, so there is no way to confirm any information for the general public.

Besides, no project would be able to go into production even if it was greenlit by a studio in the midst of the WGA and SAG AFTRA writers and actors strikes. Especially considering the fact that Steven Knight is aiming for a pretty high budget that would be impossible for an independent filmmaker.

Keep an eye out for news and behind-the-scenes updates on the Peaky Blinders movie. In the meantime, you can watch all 6 seasons of the series on Netflix, Apple TV Plus, or Amazon Prime Video.
