Cillian Murphy not a fan of Peaky Blinders hair cut
He said it is “crazy” that people like the style.
Peaky Blinders star Cillian Murphy is no fan of the trademark haircut his character sports in the hit series.
The actor, who has starred as Tommy Shelby since 2013, thinks it is “crazy” that people like the style.
He told Shortlist Magazine: “But people like the undercut thing; people go to the barber and ask for a ‘peaky cut’.
“It’s crazy that people like it, it’s not grown on me in four years now. I normally keep my hair long.”
“But they do realise the people in turtlenecks in Hackney with this haircut, do they realise it was styled this way to prevent lice? Tell em they have got the lice cut, see what they say then,” he said.
Murphy’s latest role is in Christopher Nolan’s war thriller Dunkirk.
Despite the film expected to be a roaring success, the 41-year-old admits he will only watch it once.
“When you look at your work from 10 years ago and think that was the apotheosis, well, you’re f***** really. It’s got to be forward thinking.”
