Imagine him calming down his children during an argument between them.
“No fighting. No fighting. No fighting. No Fockin fightin’!”
U fooking Arthur 😆🤗
Hahaha, I can hear it!
Even i can imagine him holding their faces looking directly into their eyes "NO FU*KING FIGHTING"
omg Im dying of laughter
And then he just f**kin' pushes one of them lmfao
I don’t see Thomas Shelby at all. That’s the mark of a great actor, unbelievable. Totally different vibe.
@Kevin Tross - Agreed.
Yeah good point
Foking biblical man
@@bansheewhiskey hes a legend but hes really not that good an actor
Guarantee if he cut his hair you’d think differently
Just wait till his kids see Peaky Blinders, he’ll be the coolest fookin dad of all time
They already have seen it.
theres too much sex scenes there i dont think he will let them see it
andruu hardly, it’s more about the violence.
*fookin
Coolest fookin dad*
He seemed very comfortable, because normally when he’s on interviews he looks like he want to die
Underrated comment
Aryan Edits haha thanks, it’s totally true though!
that's why i enjoy seth!!! he likes putting his guests first imo
Spot on. This is one of the rare times Cillian looked and sounded like he is having fun in an interview.
True..xDD
Cillian Murphy: Super hot. Kinda scary.
seems perfect to me
sya _pen_
which somehow makes him hotter
Super duper sexy guy, 🤪
Scarecrow
He said he's NOT cool? Is he insane? His character in Peaky Blinders is one of the coolest ever and his legacy throughout the rest of his filmography is legendary I can't wait to see him in A Quiet Place II
Ben Jauncey took the words out of my mouth👏👏
He said he not considered by his sons as a cool dad or even an uncool dad.
I agree , but Paul Anderson's character is my favorite . Love Arthur :)
Ben Jauncey hear hear
Not that cool for his own kids, which is not weird because they are teenagers I think
Why is Cillian so underrated? He’s one of the best actors in this world!!!!
@@johnnybravo-ir3ev simp
Carny what a dumb comment.
@@bbybee thats cute keeping it formal with a period on youtube
I do not think he is underrated, he is just not usually mainstream and I hope he stays like that.
I loved him in ‘28 Days Later’!
An advertisement for a pregnancy test popped up while I was watching this. Obviously.
@Energy Guy Dafuq are you talking about bro? 😅
@@ObitoUchiha10089 he hit his head in his childhood. leave the poor guy alone 😂😂
@@TheHungerGame3 what do you mean?
@Energy Guy actually, it is possible for a woman to get another woman pregnant
@Energy Guy u r so weird
Is it just me or does the Thomas Shelby haircut looks reeeeaallyy good on him?
anuja sarkar yes it does he should keep that haircut
He extremely hates it though
Yes, I am aware, Fatima
But intha hair cut um suit aguthu
no. it looks good on thomas
“We have something in common” lol I thought Seth was going to admit he auditioned to play batman
Ω me too, oh my god 😂😂
That idea was coming close to my mind 😅
Me to! HAHAHAHA
OMG same 😂😂
😂😂🤦♂️
Imagine Cillian's children after watching peaky blinders asking : "does that means im a Shelby?"
Don’t know why I read that with a cockney accent
You are peaky blinder too now son
😂😂😂😂
@@haulin_cube me too lmfao
😂😂😂😂
“You can’t do the Batman voice without the B A T M A N” - Cillian Murphy
Chills man
5:45
Foking biblical man
Now I’m interested to see how he would play Batman based solely off his voice there.
I mean he kinda did Batman voice in Peaky Blinders when he's speak-whispers.
If you’re a peaky blinders fan, you’ve already been here more than twice
Yyp
focking ell
nope just a cillian murphy fan 😂
U 2c
YES
This is the most I've ever seen Cillian ever speak in any interview
Check out his with Craig Ferguson. That is his best. They really get going together and it is fourteen minutes long. Love Ferguson anyway but both their accents together!OMG
Cillian must be one of the least self-entitled actors out there and that's so refreshing to see. He doesn't want to be a celebrity or Hollywood star (and even gets uncomfortable or surprised when he's treated as such), he's just an actor doing his job, and it's nice seeing such a talented guy being so down-to-earth as well. Many could learn from him.
@Clayton Barker exactly, it just proves how good of an actor he is :)
endIesstars And has the most delightful Irish lilt.
@endIesstars He has that manner, but make no mistake Cillian must know he's one of THE most sought after actors out there. He'll never be out of work!
By order of the Peaky Blinders.
People see a 6 min video And think they know everything about someone
He’s another level of good looking
His mother's double... What a lady.... Great teacher
He speaks in a classy & elegant way.
Agreed! He's so charming too, and that accent!
I don’t see it but I’m guessing I’m blind
Can't get Thomas Shelby out of my mind.
Fun fact:
Gary Oldman, Michael Caine, Christian Bale, Morgan Freeman, and Cillian Murphy are the only 5 actors to appear in all 3 Nolanverse Batman films.
Pretty damn good company, I think.
@Marshmello he does.for a couple of minutes
@Marshmello yes he did. did you even watch the movie?
@Marshmello You haven't really watched the movie, have you? That's explains why you're so sure.
Look up "Crane's Court cases in the Dark Knight Rises" on TH-cam. You can even search "Death or Exile scene".
Cillian Murphy was in all three films.
@Marshmello He sentences gordon and his men to exile. No im not putting a spoiler alert, the movie's been out quite long enough for people to have seen it by now.
@Marshmello He was the "judge" in the "court" after Bane let the criminals take over. He was the one to sentenced good people like Gordon to die or be exiled (or more specifically, exile by death).
“ how obsessed the fans are.... loyal the fans are... LOYAL LOYAL!! “ 😂 3:20
Read this comment just as he was saying it
@@aysharahman4274 same wtf
Is there anything wrong with being an obsessive fan? Cillian doesn’t like it?
@@brendaorieta2330 Didn’t want to be offensive to the fans calling them obsessive that’s all I guess
@@brendaorieta2330 even though there’s nothing offensive in that in my opinion
This actor has aged beautifully. Remember seeing him in 2003 Red Eye......20 years later he hasnt aged.......beautiful man.
Red Eye was unreally good 👍
Yep!!!!
Cillian is such a brilliant and charming actor. And he has this magnetic screen presence which made all his roles memorable.
Well said
Jo Hana Yes. And only on Seth’s show is a brilliant actor like Cillian Murphy the second guest behind an online blogger.
Loved him as scarecrow in batman begins...
And well I love watching doraemon too..😁😁😁
except there are countless stories about him being a complete asshole to crew members.
EmpireSun do u believe anything u hear? Cus if u do thats a big problem
I’m so glad Cillian is being interviewed by a host that actually lets his guests talk and doesn’t interrupt them every 15 seconds. Seth is brilliant at what he does and Cillian makes me proud to be Irish 🇮🇪
Ur right he does and same here!☘️
Fallon is the worst
Jaime Mendez 100%. His fake laughing ruins the interviews too.
I love watching him on American chat shows and how much he tones down his irish accent. Its so faint.
I know right. Fallon needs to stay away!
This is the most relaxed I've seen of Cillian.. he's more fun n comfortable than in other talk shows...
Anyone else who hasn't seen peaky blinders needs to see it NOW!
Not for me, i know a lot of people that watch it just not into it...cant wait for Quiet Place 2 though..
@@garydodd2837 It requires full attention.. so Its better to watch on the computer w headphones on and bury your phone away to get whats going on. . It gets better w season 2.. season 3 being the best one
He hasn't been on graham norton yet
Seth makes his guests comfortable
Yes,I watch it peaky blinders, it's brilliant,😄👍
He jumps between American and Irish accents seamlessly and often!
.... but only one is own authentic accent.
No, that's just the Irish accent
And Birmingham, England (for peaky blinders), which is a difficult accent, he does it well
“That (haircut) is coming in about 10 days”
*In comes COVID
I wonder if he got the cut and then it was cancelled lol
Chris Nolan, please make him the lead in one of your future films
👍 Ur 💯 right!
You should try incepting Chris Nolan...
He was one of the main characters in Dunkirk but I guess it’d be nice to see him in a true lead role
unrelated but tony leung is a legend
Inception
He’s so beautiful, his features are so unique
Not really.. He looks just like Tom Welling
Crazy how hes nearly 44
Also Tom Cruise and Ashton Kutcher dont age
What are they taking?
His eyes😍
@@Xighor and Paul Rudd
I love how relaxed and chatty Cillian was with Seth. Never seen him like this on other chat shows. Seth has to be the best interviewer on all these chat shows.
I know, its really nice
Seth and Conan are the most considerate and natural. They also don't interrupt like crazy.
He took opium before this interview
Do know Conan o'Brien
Conan
Red Eye is such an underrated film. He was legitimately terrifying in it
Straight up, watched that movie when I was a kid and was forever scared of Cillian Murphy lol.
@Zach Rizzo - Agreed.
I remember the scene with the Pin down his throat 😣
That was my movie!!!
Nice, I’ll have to check that movie out!
His accent is so different from peaky blinder. He nailed that character.
He is a good Irish man.
I'm calling it. In Peaky Blinders, Michael's wife is Al Capones daughter.
I second this
Thirded
I'm calling it. In Peaky Blinders, Michael's wife is Lucky Lucianos daughter.
Nah her father is that slot from ice age
Wait I thought Al Capone had a son not a daughter
Cillian is a gem. He's unforgettable in all his films especially The Wind That Shakes the Barley!
Oh man, that movie was beautiful and intense and heartbreaking, all at the same time
28 Days later he is excellent in that.
Anthropoid was my introduction to him and alls I gots to say is this boi know how to hit you in the feels with his acting
Breakfast on Pluto is my favorite.
Peaky Blinders
cillian is a legend. especially after peaky blinders, no one can underestimate his acting now.
he is a legend ! He's so irresistibly attractive
@Martesa Deutschland you're blind.
i agree
This man is so talented he could play a scientist flawlessly
Ikr
@@constanzaavila9439 He has played a physicist in THREE MOVIES-
SUNSHINE, RED LIGHTS AND WON THE OSCAR FOR OPPENHEIMER.
This is probably THE most interesting and wholesome interview of Cillian's. He is comfortable and clearly enjoying it, which is vital in an interview, especially with a person as shy and as reserved as Cillian. Love him and the the interview.
He wasn't disappointed in this one...
Yeah, I feel this is the first interview he really felt comftarble
@@ianlongo9037 😂👍
Cillian Murphy is the most underrated actor of all time.period.fact.
Agreed
Agreed
April Rawls agreed
Mechoel Hayum Of all time? 😂 Overreact much?
He’s not underrated, just overlooked. Everyone that knows him knows he talented, he just doesn’t get the recognition he deserves in the mainstream.
Cillian Murphy is humble, talented and just lovely. Love his Irish accent. He's a badass by order of the Peaky F@#$ing Blinders🔥👍
The peaky FOOKIN blinders!
Oh, those cheekbones....
Jess Hart and eyes ☺️
Oh, those lips...
oh his jawline ...
when he shift this voice OMG i love his lower tone
Screamed internally
dude, Christian Bale was great as Batman, but Cilian Murphy's 10 second screen test for batman is amazing. I think he would've done a superb job. His Batman voice is absolutely insane. Such an underrated actor
He earned more fans with peaky blinders than bale ever did with all his career
he's so hot. and him being so down to earth makes him even hotter.
Omg yes I agree with you HOT
Yessss
He doesn’t do interviews often I’m so glad this video exists
5:45 .. Holy hell that short little Batman voice was amazing !!!
Yes!
“how obses- *realizes* -ive the fan- and loyal the fans are” HE KNOWS
I can tell he was so comfortable in this interview, he was less introverted than usual and actually engaged with the host :) loved it
I think the more famous and idolized you become, the harder it must be on your private life. Its like the public is sucking the hell out of you...grabbing at your soul, wanted more and more...it must be one way for him, to protect himself, he is so lovely and humble ...I am sure her gets a lot of attention from women, a lot of them are flirting with him, irrelevant of his long marriage...just watched " Variety " on TH-cam, with him and Margot Robbie, she is so into him... its cute but must be a bit uncomfortable for him..just my thoughts. 💖
Most teenage boys in Ireland have that haircut! 😂 😂 😂
Creator it’s called a 90s “doing” haircut.
So many in Ireland have it, think they all have lice maybe, i dont know..
Gary Dodd we don’t
Gary Dodd there talking about the peaky blinders haircut
One of the better talk show interviews with Cillian. I think Cillian prefers to just act and go home and usually seems to appear uncomfortable in interviews so it was nice to see him a little bit more relaxed.
This man looks a bit like me. A little uglier, but still a quite handsome fockin lad
Momma didn't teach you to be bit modest
@@zackbrown5201 aunti Pol mate. She raised him.
@@aadrath1236 That’s right son!
Ugly? Are you fucking kidding me,? He is soooooo handsome 😍😍😍😍😍
HAA kill anyone lately?
5:45 I actually love his Batman voice
It’s so ✨ sexy ✨
THANK you for the time stamp 😌
YES YES YES
Totally! 😻
I thought the same
im 8 years late. i just started watching peaky blinders
You're not alone
enjoy :)
same here. season 4 rn this show is amazing
same!!
ME TOO
I'll say it again.... Seth Meyers has a gift. They way he interacts and engages his guests is amazing. He makes them feel so comfortable.
Idk he seemed just a bit obnoxious to me. But thats just my observation
he was terrible in this interview
It felt like he had a crush on Cillian... he was giggling like a school girl.
this is a delicious interview of Cillian. he was so chatty. and peaky blinders being highlighted a lot.
He's a 10 out of a possible 10, Good Man All Around!
Top 3 Actors right now
1. Christian Bale
2. Cillian Murphy
3. Tom Hardy
Chris Nolan knows how to pick ‘em! 🙌
@@divineinterruption9816 yeah😅
Don't forget leo.
@@9False Leo is a legend right know.😍
@@binarakr along with Christian bale. Both are equal for me. Legends
He went from so smooth and unthreatening to total evil in Red Eye. Sealed the deal for me. Beautiful, talented man; we will be seeing more of him.
Is this the first time I see Cillian really relaxed in a talk show or I don't watch enough Cillian Murphy in talk shows?
agree
Seth is such an underrated talk show host. He's the only one out there who doesn't hold cue cards to feed him topics to talk about. And no matter how engaged or reserved his guests are, he keeps the conversation going at a perfect pace without it ever feeling awkward or rushed. He's really phenomenal.
Graham Norton!
Conan?!
His so fake what you talking about.Like a male version of Ellen D
@@mohammadminhazuddinbhuiyan6539 Graham uses cue cards. They're purple with the show's gold star logo on the back. He uses them all the time.
@@EricCrispRealEstate Conan used cue cards his whole career up until he recently revamped the show without a desk.
imagine this guy being your opponent on a debate..he looks super intimidating and hot at the same time..id be a mess
Cilian is THE most elegant and classic actor ever Hands down
He’s seriously been my crush ever since I saw him in 28 Days Later.
CheesecakeLasagna same
So sexy in red eye. Omg
That’s the pain... knowing you will never even get close to the person yet being in love with said person...
Same! He is so good in every film and so attractive. ♡
Same here..he too hot and sexy..😘
A peaky foookin blinder as the Bats? I can dig it.
You can watch his audition on TH-cam. It's kinda funny. Bale was the obvious choice.
Apparently Chris Nolan wasn't convinced when Cillian had put on the cowl during the audition and felt that he wasn't the right fit for the part however Cillian's audition as Bruce Wayne was so enjoyable that he wanted him in the movie anyhow so that's how he got the scarecrow role.
I will literally always watch anything he’s apart of. This guy elevates every scene he is involved in! Love Cillian
The way he is saying that peaky blinders is such a small show, shows how much humility this man has.
He's not saying it's a small show, lmao. He knows it's a big show, they even mention it's a big show. They're talking about how it started as a small show, and how it then grew big. It would make no sense for him to pretend it's 'small' and it wouldn't show humility at all, as it would just be him denying facts... what a strange comment.
Jeroen G I find your comment very strange though. Like you thought something and pushing that on me.
he said it started as a small show, not that it still is
they are talking about the budget, which compared to US shows is small, even now.
seriesaddict probably bc they do more great acting without all the over the top bs that we have in our movies in the US honestly
So weird hearing him speak in an accent that ain't Birmingham.
This man is so gorgeous what am I doing he’s literally 44
Cillian Murphy: aka Scarecrow (the most underrated villain of all time). Such a great actor.
My favorite villain in the trilogy.
@@16thChemical not joker eh?
@@ajmalabdulla2147 Not Joker.
Peaky Blinders is one of the best shows to watch. It’s so good and this man is one of the main reasons, such a good actor.
He looks like the Squidward when he was made beautiful
Great to see Cillian Murphy comfortable in an interview, Seth’s a great host.
He’s learned to adapt through out the years ..
CILLIAN'S ON A LATE NIGHT SHOW?! Is this real?
Ikr I clicked so fast too lol
He's been on Craig Ferguson and Colbert
@@hugonongbri8100 those were ages ago and kind of uncomfortable to watch. Especially Colbert
i really want him to go on graham norton!! graham's such a good host
Great interview, relaxed, given time to actually give an answer, zero bullshit about Irish accents and stereotypes. Well played Seth.
He seems like he is a nice guy in real life but he scared me in Batman begins as scarecrow.
That character was sexy as hell for me. That's when I first checked out who he was.
then don‘t watch peaky blinders lol
When you hear Cillian Murphy's original accent after watching Peaky Blinders.
😯
Fun fact: Jason Statham was showrunner Steven Knight's original choice for the role of Thomas Shelby, but a persistent Cillian Murphy convinced him that he was the man for the role, and the rest is history . . .
invink Maybe I missed that interview, but this is the article I read related to the casting of Murphy over Statham 🤔www.bbcamerica.com/anglophenia/2020/06/jason-statham-almost-landed-cillian-murphys-role-on-peaky-blinders
@@inwinkable no that's not what he says in that interview. Wired Weird is right.
Bull. That story was made up by press not paying attention.
Peaky was ALWAYS Cill's.
The confusion started when Statham and Cillian were being considered for Knight's BEEKEEPER movie 2 years earlier and Statham got the role.
The press are incompetent.
I learned who he was when he was in Red Eye alongside Rachel McAdams. Great film! And fantastic performance from him! I also just realized he was in 28 days later lol!
I first saw him in an Irish film called Disco Pigs wen i was a kid, he was so good in that but yeah Red Eye was so good, he was such a great psychopath in that...
He has a small part in Cold Mountain. Which I had to re watch to find him in.❤
His pp is in that movie
@@popurm Horace i believe they call that a Brad Pitt! (Fight Club)

I hate when people don't turn off the click click click click sound , it's so annoying!
Just proud to be a one of the greatest “loyal” fan of Peaky Blinders...!
okay hitesh
Seth is so painfully awkward in this interview, why is he acting so nervous. Like a proper fangirl. lol
Cillian is generally intimidating *AF*
Looks wise & otherwise Lol
U should see the cillian murphy awkward interview,if u've seen that,then you can probably guess why seth was nervous af to do this
I thought it was just me who thought so! 😂
What a beautiful man! 🙌
God took his time making him.
5:45 he is killing me with his voice...
영 5:44
영 my husband knows that if I could get a hall pass, it would be him.
He's one of those actors that if he's in something, I'm going to watch it.
He's so pretty
Truly is😭😭😭
Yesss
Seriously, the most gorgeous human on the planet 🥰
Cillian Murphy is one of the best actors of this generation.
In the league of Brando & Niro
Cillian was into discussing deep topics and things, but his buddy was more focused on cracking lame jokes. Too bad he missed the chance
the host can't stay on one topic too long, he has to cycle through a lot of different topics
*When I first saw "Red Eye" long time ago, I remember thinking*
"Wow, this man is so prettyyyyy"
Yess!!!
The man in your profile is also very pretty
@@Sharifah99 The prettiest of all.
the Fujoshi loves Yaoi with Hot Seme & cute Uke you speak fact.
Cillian Murphy is the best Actor ever, like how the hell he is so underrated, this man talks and i melt immediately.
I don't understand why he is so hot, but he is, in the strange way
Unconventionally handsome plus his jawline is very classic. He's a genetic lottery.
Peaky Blinders is the best name and his hair is phenomenal ❤
I saw his batman audition tape, and he wasn't half bad. He got the voice, and act down, but not the bruce wayne part
His Bruce was wayyyyy too dark for us mortals ( omg but so hot )
Where did you watch it??
nolan the next victim on the orders of peaky blinders
Check him out in Sunshine...under appreciated Danny Boyle sci-film from 2007 👍 👍
*28 Days Later*
Such a great film. The atmosphere in that film is second to none.
I finally saw that movie a few days ago. It was fucking brilliant. Easily the second best zombie film that takes place in England.
Second to Shaun of the Dead, of course.
I agree.
and that opening chase scene to 28 WEEKS Later... is one of the best scenes in all zombie cinema imo.
If you haven't seen it, watch the first 20 minutes.
My favourite zombie film ever.
I love watching him speak. Man is so elegant. Each and every word of his is measured.
Cillian Murphy is the epitome of great acting and great looks.
Born to be a star and yet he seems so detached from stardom. He has such a down to earth and relaxed vibe. Makes him totally irresistible !!!
Can't wait for Peaky Blinders season 6!! Tommy Shelby is my dream man!!😍
Why'd Seth think it'd be cool to call him out for not getting batman? 😩There wasn't even an interesting story to go with it, he was just like "did you really think you'd get it?" and poor Cillian was just like "no, but I got to try on the suit." 😭😂
I love how he's coming back to his horror roots. From 28 Days Later, which was his big break, to A Quiet Place 2 with a full and diverse career behind him.
"By the order of Peaking Fooking Blinderrrr!"
I’m glad Christopher Nolan chose him as Scarecrow. He would’ve been a good Batman, but not a good Bruce Wayne. But he was an awesome Scarecrow!
For me its the opposite he could pull off bruce wayne but hes just too pretty to be batman..but he was a great scarecrow
It’s not The Batman, it’s The Botxman
You know it's weird, it's been 16 years since they shot Batman Begins, and the guy only looks like he aged about 5 years.
