In an age where celebrity selfies are the norm, Cillian Murphy (47) is flipping the script!

"Once I started doing that, it changed my life," he admits, sparking a buzz across fan forums!
The 'Peaky Blinders' icon is all about making each fan encounter count. "I just think it’s better to say hello and have a little conversation," he says, setting a new celeb trend. His actor pals are baffled, but Murphy's stance is clear: Who needs a photo when you've got memories?

While his star-studded peers navigate the relentless Hollywood hustle, Murphy cherishes the off-camera life. "A lot of research as an actor is just f---ing living," he tells 'GQ', advocating for a return to the "lovely flow of humanity." From his early days in London to his current seaside sanctuary in Dublin with wife Yvonne McGuinness and their two sons, Murphy's life is a testament to the joy of normalcy.
Murphy's fame may ebb and flow, but his feet remain firmly planted. "It seems to be like that, and you sort of ride that, and then things go back to normal,” he reflects on his fluctuating celebrity status. With a Golden Globe now under his belt, Murphy navigates the spotlight with the same ease as his character Tommy Shelby handles the streets of Birmingham.
