Perhaps everyone is guilty of binge-watching Peaky Blinders. But it is obvious to obsess over its classic plotline, thrilling scenes, and amazing star cast. The series has been a part of our lives since 2013. Ever since the show aired, it has created a buzz among the audience. What’s most interesting about the series is the chemistry between the characters.
The bond between Tommy Shelby, played by Cillian Murphy, and Alfie Solomons, played by Tom Hardy, is something, any Peaky Blinders fan can vouch for. The two actors do not just look great on screen; their bond behind the camera is also fixating. Previously, during an interview, Murphy talked highly of his co-star, Hardy, and appreciated his acting skills. Praising Hardy, Murphy said,
“You never quite know what to expect with Tom but he absolutely, I mean that character came fully formed.”
Further, the actor shared that since their characters’ energies oppose each other, they had to cross-shoot their scenes. The actor said,
“It’s like a piece of theatre, sometimes you have 20 minutes takes cause traditionally or conventionally you would shoot over the shoulder but yeah that’s hard to do when you’re in these big big big scenes.”
Peaky Blinders isn’t the only series where Murphy and Hardy have appeared together. The duo has also collaborated on films like The Dark Knight Rises, Inception, and Dunkirk.
What are Tom Hardy and Cillian Murphy currently doing?
Irish actor Cillian Murphy is currently in the spotlight for his upcoming film Oppenheimer. The much-anticipated film clashes with Margot Robbie’s Barbie. Oppenheimer is an anti-hero-based biography of theoretical physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer, who was known as the father of the atomic bomb. Looking at the hype for the film, it would be interesting to witness the performance.
Tom Hardy, for his part, is all set to have a blast with the third installment of the Venom series, Untitled Venom: Let There Be Carnage Sequel. The film is set to release next year. Hardy recently appeared in the action-thriller film Furiosa.
Oppenheimer is set to hit theaters on July 21, 2023.
