At the event, Cillian Murphy and Snoop Dogg crossed paths and quickly greeted each other with an embrace while Christopher Nolan, Florence Pugh, Robert Downey Jr, and other stars were also in attendance. Murphy and Snoop met for the first time in the public eye, which make their union appear random and surprising on the surface level.
However, Snoop Dogg is a massive fan of the Cillian Murphy-led British crime-drama series Peaky Blinders. Snoop has previously shared his affection for the series through an Instagram post made in 2014. The 16-time Grammy Award-nominated rapper also covered the show’s theme song in 2019. Hence, Snoop Dogg meeting the Thomas Shelby actor in real life was a heartfelt and endearing moment.
