'After appearing in blockbuster films like "Batman Begins" and "Inception," Cillian Murphy became most well-known for his role as Thomas Shelby on "Peaky Blinders." The Irish actor starred in the crime drama from its premiere in 2013 to its finale in 2022. Following the show's end, Murphy took on another iconic role by playing the lead in Christopher Nolan's "Oppenheimer." At the film's London premiere on 13 July, Murphy posed with all of his castmates on the red carpet, however, he didn't take photos with any of his family members. His wife, Yvonne McGuinness, and their teenage sons appeared to be noticeably absent at the event. While this may come as a surprise to new fans, those who've been keeping up with Murphy for years would know the actor has always kept his personal life away from the cameras.
Murphy doesn't have any public social media accounts, so fans only get a glimpse of his life behind the scenes whenever he does interviews. He's also able to frequently dodge the paparazzi since he lives far away from Hollywood. According to People, Murphy lives a quiet life with his family in Ireland. Although he and his wife have been together for nearly 30 years, only a handful of photos exist of them together online. Since the couple have successfully been able to stay out of the headlines, you may be curious to know more about their longtime marriage. Keep reading for a timeline of Murphy and McGuinness's relationship
1 1996: Cillian Murphy and Yvonne McGuinness Meet
Years before Murphy made a name for himself as an actor, he was a law student at University College Cork who performed rock gigs in his free time. According to Marie Claire, Murphy met McGuinness after one of his band's shows in 1996. At the time, Murphy was just beginning his acting career by performing in a play called "Disco Dogs." The production became such a huge hit that it toured around the world for 18 months.
In a 2016 interview with The Guardian, Murphy recalled the tour as "the most important period" of his life not only because he met his "closest friends" through it, but because it played a big part in his relationship with McGuinness as well. "It was around the same time I met my wife. She came on tour with us. It was so exciting," he said. "20 years ago or whatever it was — we were all just kids, trying to find our way — but such a special, special time."
2 2004: Cillian Murphy and Yvonne McGuinness Get Married
Murphy and McGuinness were together for eight years before they officially tied the knot in August 2004, according to Irish Central. The couple reportedly exchanged their vows at McGuinness's father's vineyard in Provence, France.
3 2005: Cillian Murphy and Yvonne McGuinness Welcome Their First Child
According to People, Murphy and McGuinness welcomed their first child — a son named Malachy — in 2005. The "Dunkirk" actor opened up about his growing family in a 2006 interview with The Guardian, during which he revealed his wife was pregnant while he was filming "The Wind That Shakes the Barley." Since the movie was shot in the Cork countryside, he was able to remain close to McGuinness in the months leading up to his son's birth.
"Easily my best experience in terms of the process of acting. Plus, it was during the summer months," he said. "I was living at home with my folks; my wife was pregnant with our son; and we were running around the hills of west Cork shooting up Black and Tans. Fantastic!"
4 2007: Cillian Murphy and Yvonne McGuinness Welcome Their Second Child
Murphy and McGuinness's second son, Aran, was born in 2007. Although not much is known about the couple's kids, Aran is following in his father's footsteps by becoming an actor as well. In 2019, Aran starred in the play "Hamnet" as Shakespeare's son. According to Broadway World, Aran first gained acting experience by performing in school plays before going on to further his craft at the Brooklyn Academy of Music.
Murphy talked about his son's performance in a 2021 interview with The Guardian. "He was so chilled about it, you know? He would come off stage and ask what the score was in the Liverpool game. And, again, you're slightly jealous of that!" Murphy said. "There's the danger that overanalysing everything can erode the simplicity."
5 2015: Cillian Murphy and Yvonne McGuinness Move Their Family to Dublin
After living in London for decades, Murphy and McGuinness moved their family to Dublin in 2015. While talking to The Guardian in 2016, Murphy explained there were a few reasons that inspired the family to relocate, including craving a change of scenery. "I loved living in London in my 20s and 30s, but after a while you kind of go, 'Right, is this it? Is this it for the rest of my days? Or is there some other possibility?'" Murphy said, adding that the family longed to live near the sea.
Another reason for the move was that Murphy and McGuinness wanted their kids to be closer to their grandparents. "We wanted them to be Irish, I suppose," he said. "It's amazing how quickly their accents have adapted. Even within a year of moving back, they are fading into this rakish west Brit kind of thing. Which I think, hopefully, will get them lots of girls when they're 15."
6 2016: Cillian Murphy and Yvonne McGuinness Are Seen Together in New York
Despite having been married for nearly 20 years, Murphy and McGuinness are rarely seen together out in public. In August 2016, they were spotted taking a stroll around New York City while the actor was in the United States to promote his film "Anthropoid." Although the two haven't been seen together in public since, they remain happily married.
In a 2019 interview with GQ, Murphy said it's "hard" being away from his wife and kids due to work obligations. "I have an amazing wife and I couldn't do this without her and her understanding. But it is a struggle. I think it is for any dad whose work takes him away, which it generally does, and which consumes him, which my work does," he explained.
To combat this, Murphy said he tries to spend at least six months per year at home. "I make sure that I try not to go from job to job to job, because that means you live in a bubble of set, hotel, set, hotel, plane, film festivals — which, to me, is not reality," he said.'

ST MALACHY'S CHURCH IN BELFAST
In the beginning Saint Malachy's was served by priests from St Mary's Church, Belfast until the Parish of Saint Malachy was created in 1866 and Fr Geoffrey Brennan, a native of Kilkenny, was appointed Administrator.

your nathan posting got me googling abt tew btw. ALSO wanted to ask - how do you pick your ocs' names, based on their meaning or do you just pick random names? 👀
HEHEHE i'm dragging everyone with me into tew hell it's so fun in here. highly recommend checking out the games or at least a playthrough it's genuinely so so fun
generally i pick ocs' names on vibes tbh! i usually get a visual for a new guy first and then choose a name that fits with that appearance / aesthetic or the theme(s) i'm going for. occasionally i'll also look up meanings if i'm feeling fancy or when i can't choose between a few names, and then i pick the one with the meaning that would work best :D
i like using "unconventional" names for my ocs, so for example aubrey and james valentine with aubrey mainly using he/him pronouns and james mainly using she/her pronouns (though they swap pronoun sets whenever they feel like it), and mackenzie and isabel valiente who are both men :] or just more rare names in general, like gaige, ryder, maverick, nestor, and huxley. i tend to take ethnicity into account as well when picking names; kaida was born to japanese parents despite being born in night city and thus has a japanese name, and back at arasaka xe would always write xyr last name before the first name (so akiyama kaida)
some ocs are created in pairs (aubrey and james as twins, maverick and monroe as twins, daphne and morrigan as sisters, jin and suki as "twins", mack and murphy (the latter belongs to @mojaves but they're a package deal) or entire families in general (vitali with his siblings daniil and roksana, and his parents matvey and nadya; vincent and his siblings robert, phoebe, jason, and riley, and his parents richard and elise) in which case i also make sure the names sound nice together! again most of this is just based on vibes and me saying the names out loud to myself in my bedroom to check if they all match LMAO
then there's also ocs where i need them to have like, a dramatic name if that makes sense?? like ambrose hawthorne, malachi daneiros, rowdy mccain, etc etc are all names that once you have them in your system they're very easy to remember because they stand out if that makes sense. especially when i need a character to be powerful or radiate authority or stand out from their surroundings through being extra or bold or whatever i tend to give them a name to match :]
for my vampires story specifically i went with VERY over the top names because it fits the aesthetic i have in mind for the universe. the names are very big and dramatic like heavenly rowinski, andromache and mirage bellevere, aloysius "doc" goodman, etc etc. so yeah it really depends on the rest of the context for the oc i'm making where i get their name from!! i always love coming up with names for guys it's one of my favorite parts of character creation :]

For archive purposes: October, 2012
A lean, slight, tousled figure in a sailor-striped T-shirt and buckle-back trousers, Cillian Murphy walks into an upscale Japanese restaurant in downtown Manhattan. As he says hello, sits down, and looks around the room with his extraordinary ultramarine blue eyes, I form my first impressions: kind, gentle, sensitive, good-humoured, with no visible traces of the villains, psychopaths and other tortured souls he has played so convincingly on stage and screen. He also looks a little weary, and there is good reason for this.
“I’ve had kind of a crazy week this week,” he says in a mellifluous Irish accent with a rich grainy timbre. “I was in the Ukraine for a film festival. I’ve been all over America promoting a film called Red Lights, which I’m in with Robert De Niro. Yesterday was The Dark Knight Rises premiere here in New York, and this afternoon we fly to London for the next premiere. It’s all part of the job, I suppose, but it’s certainly not the reason why you do it.”
The waiter arrives with water and menus, and after some study, Cillian (pronounced Killian) decides on a salad of shitakes and market greens, followed by the sashimi. “I’m a vegetarian who occasionally eats meat and fish,” he says. “I like a drink too, but I won’t just now. I’ll stick with water.” I order the Kobe beef and ask the waiter to bring out a glass of red wine with it.
Some actors enjoy talking about themselves and their films, and they do it well. Cillian does not count himself among them. “I’m getting less hung about it, but when I started, the whole promotion aspect was an ordeal to be endured,” he says. “I just don’t have a great facility for it. I try to be interesting and spontaneous but it’s so hard when you get asked the question fifty or a hundred times over. You hear your little anecdotes going stale. Yes, it was fantastic to work with Robert De Niro, but you can only say it so many times, you know? I’ve always thought, just judge me on the work. What else matters? I’m an actor and that’s what I do.”
There’s an assumption in the media that actors are all competing in the same horse race for A-list stardom, and that an actor like Cillian Murphy, who seems poised on the very brink of it, with the perfect combination of looks and talent, must surely be yearning to get there. Journalists find it hard to accept when he tells them that that the only thing he cares about is the work, and the rest of it is to be endured. But this is why he avoids celebrity parties and keeps himself out of the gossip pages. He attends his own premieres, because he has to, but he won’t go to anyone else’s and he dreads the four-minute television interview on the red carpet.
Off screen, he lives a quiet, normal life that he likes to keep as private as possible. He’s married to Yvonne McGuinness, a visual artist, and they’ve been together since he was 20. They have two sons, Malachy and Aran, and shuttle between their house in North West London and the ancestral sod of County Cork.
“I’ve always felt that the less the public knows about you, the more effective you can be when you go to portray someone else,” he says.“For actors to reveal so much about themselves, and allow their personal selves to be owned by the media and the public, I find at odds with trying to lose yourself in a character. And that’s the thing I’m after. That’s what drives me. I’m 36 now, and I still have a real hunger for it.”
He thinks the desire to perform for an audience is something genetic, a personality trait that lives in the DNA, and it first expressed itself in his youthful attempts to be a rock star.“Of all the arts, music is still the one that affects me on the deepest level,” he says. “My parents were teachers, not artistic types, but there was always music in the house, and all four of us kids learned to play music. I was in a few different bands, playing guitar, singing and songwriting.”
One of those bands was called The Sons of Mr Greengenes, after the Frank Zappa song. They were offered a five-album deal by Acid Jazz records, but turned it down, because the deal was a swindle and Cillian’s parents disapproved of the music business. At the same time, Cillian recognised that he’d reached the ceiling of his musical talent, and would never be as good as he wanted to be. He went to law school in Cork “for no good reason,” and then one day he wandered into a production of Clockwork Orange staged in local nightclub.
“If your first theatre experience is a bad one, it’s unlikely you’ll go back,” he says. “But my first theatre experience was an extraordinary one. It was dangerous and sexy and electric, and just astonishing. I’ll always love music, but here was another form of live performance, just as exciting.”He pestered the theatre company, and after some starter roles, he was cast in the lead of Disco Pigs, a strange and brilliant play by Enda Walsh about a sick, twisted, obsessive relationship between a deranged boy and a slightly less deranged girl next door. The play was a huge success, touring for several years, reaching as far afield as Toronto and Copenhagen, and in 2001 it was made into a film. Pale, beautiful and androgenous, with outsized lips and impossibly blue eyes, Cillian Murphy looks as though he drifted down to earth from some other galaxy, or floated up from a cave kingdom beneath the Irish Sea. This ethereal, otherworldly quality has been a great asset to him as an actor, and many of his films have taken place in imaginary realms or the future.
His big breakthrough came in 2002 when he was cast as the lead in Danny Boyle’s 28 Days Later, and required to fight his way through a post-apocalyptic London full of zombies. He went to outer space in Boyle’s Sunshine, and Gotham City for Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy, in which he plays the sinister psychologist Scarerow. Nolan cast him again in Inception, as the target man for Leonardo DiCaprio’s team of dream-jackers.He’s also played a transvestite for Neil Jordan in Breakfast On Pluto, a creepy villain for Wes Craven in Red Eye, and a reluctant freedom fighter turned zealot for Ken Loach in The Wind Shakes The Barley, an epic about the Irish war of independence set in his native Cork. In all, he’s done 26 feature films, and while some of them haven’t turned out as well as he hoped, there are no bad or stupid films in his biography.
“You have to go in with good faith, and believe that this is best performance you’re ever going to give,” he says. “I’ve never done a film I didn’t believe in. I’ve never done a film for the money. Fortunately, I’ve been in some big budget films that were smart, and the money has given me the freedom to do small budget films and theatre that I’ve felt passionately about. An example is this movie Broken, which is a kind of version of To Kill A Mockingbird transposed to contemporary London. It’s a tiny, tiny budget film, and I’m just so proud of it. It’s such an emotionally brave piece of film-making.”Another example is Misterman, a one-man play that he performed earlier this year in Ireland, Brooklyn and London. Written by Enda Walsh, who got him started in Disco Pigs, and has become a close friend, it required him to play seven different characters imagined by the main character, and earned him the best reviews of his entire career. “It was incredibly exhausting and incredibly satisfying. Sometimes I was doing two performances a day. I don’t think I’ve ever been so tired, or so happy. It was very pure. It was all about the work. The commerce aspect was tiny, compared to when you make a film, and there was none of the waiting around.”
The waiter sets down two beautifully presented plates, one of sashimi and one of beef, and pours me a particularly delicious glass of Bordeaux. Seeing the expression of delight on my face when I taste the wine, Cillian says, “You know what? I’ll have a glass as well then. I do like my red wine.” Then the conversation collapses into silence, grunts,and occasional exclamations, as our chopsticks deliver one morsel of culinary artistry after another into our mouths. This restaurant, 15 East, was recently named one of the best in New York, and for both of us, it’s one of the best meals of our lives. “Absolutely sensational,” says Cillian, who is finding no problem at all drinking red wine with sushi.
When the plates are empty, I ask him what it feels like to become a character. Is it a genuine transformation, or it just a matter of dressing up and pretending to be someone else? “It’s not always the same,” he says. “Some characters are just a slight adjustment, and some are a great distance away from you. I like to do research. I was playing a professional debunker in this movie Red Lights about the supernatural, so I went and hung out with physicists and professional sceptics and magicians, to understand that community. Actors tend to know a lot superficially about a great deal of things.”
I press him again: what does it feel like when you’re in character? “It’s most satisfying on the stage,” he says. “If it reaches the point of being transcendent, where you’re not actually conscious of being on stage performing, because you’re only aware of the character and his world and his needs, well, that’s what you’re always aiming for, that’s the moment that theatre people are always chasing. It’s the ultimate rush, if you will, for an actor, when the self disappears completely.”
One glass of Bordeaux leads to another. The waiter asks if we want dessert, and Cillian says no thanks, and I order something called a Shiratama parfait of red beans, matcha jelly and green tea ice cream.When it arrives, it is multi-coloured and visually spectacular with many more ingredients, and Cillian says, “Wow, look at that. My goodness, I might have to get a spoon of that.”
We both dig in, exploring an extraordinary combination of flavours and textures, with gums, jellies, brioche, red bean paste and more. “Oh man, what’s that green stuff?” he says, mining the lower layers now. “I have no idea what that is. It’s got that gummy vibe going on again. Fecking amazing.”
With a drop more wine, Cillian gets talking with great enthusiasm about books and music. Have I read the Irish writer John Banville, one of his favourites? Do I know the seminal jazz album Bill Evans Live At the Village Vanguard? Cillian found it recently on vinyl, being a great admirer of Bill Evan’s understated piano playing, and firmly convinced that vinyl is still the best way to listen to music. He loves Frank Zappa, Captain Beefheart, Van Morrison, Jack White, and the Irish writers Pat McCabe, Sebastian Barry and the late, great, mindbending Flann O’Brien. Cillian is signed up for the film version of O’Brien’s satirical postmodern comedy At-Swim-Two-Birds, along with Gabriel Byrne, Colin Farrell and Michael Fassbender, and he hopes it will go into production soon.
“I’m also hoping to do some telly,” he says. “The smart mid-budget movie, which has been my bread and butter, has been squeezed out quite a bit. People are very reluctant to take a chance on a smart $17 million movie. They’d much rather throw everything into a dumb $250 million movie. But you don’t find that in TV where the writing just gets better and better, and you’ve the opportunity to develop a character over many hours.”
When you’re interviewing an actor, it’s always difficult to know if you’re witnessing a performance or the real person, but I get the distinct impression that Cillian Murphy is not only a nice guy, but maybe even happy and fulfilled. Is this true? “Well, the insecurity is always there,” he says. “It’s a necessary aspect of being an actor, or a writer for that matter. You have to have that insecurity. I used to feel like a failed musician pretending to be an actor, but that’s less of a worry now. I’ve found my form, I’ve found the right outlet for my impulse to create, and yes, I’m pretty happy. I don’t believe you have to be a tortured person in order to make great art. It needn’t always come from a place of pain, although there seems to be a romantic view of that.”
When he was a boy, all he wanted to do was hang around with artists and creative people, but he was stuck in a school in Cork where rugby and academia were the only things people seemed to care about. “Now, weirdly, I’ve found myself in a position where all my friends are artists. It’s a good place to be, I think, and that’s a real source of happiness, especially when we collaborate on stuff.”His ambitions for the future are very simple. In theatre, film or television, in collaboration with the best writers and directors, he wants to make great art, and keep on making it. “I can’t remember which director said it, but he said it takes 30 years to make a good actor,” he says.
“Longevity matters. I’m 16 years in, just over the hump, and when I’m 50 I should know if I’ve mastered my trade, or failed gloriously.”When the dessert and Bordeaux are finished, I ask for the bill, and the waiter brings it with two complementary glasses of dessert wine and a tray of petit fours. “I’m a big fan of your work,” he says to Cillian.
“I’m a big fan of your restaurant,” says Cillian. “How fantastic. What a meal. I wish all interviews could be like this.”As we walk out pleasantly buzzed into the bright furnace of a New York summer afternoon, I notice that Cillian doesn’t appear to have a mobile phone. “I left it in a taxi yesterday,” he says.
“Within half an hour, someone had called my wife and made arrangements to return it. I’m going to pick it up now before I go to the airport. It gives you faith, man. My publicist has lost two wallets and a phone here, and gotten them all back, with none of the money missing. It’s not something people expect from New York, but there you have it.”
Then I see the waiter from 15 East running down the street towards us, and I wonder if he’s going to ask Cillian for an autograph. But no, by odd coincidence, the waiter is holding my mobile phone, which I must have left in the restaurant. “You see what I mean?” says Cillian. “It gives you faith. Alright, best of luck, and I’ll be off now.”

Cillian Murphy attending the 2024 Oscar Wilde Awards in Los Angeles
As Cillian Murphy comes to the end of his incredible Oppenheimer tour, with a possible Oscar at the Academy Awards on March 10, all eyes are looking to the future, and the rumors that he is in the running to play the next James Bond.  But the 47-year-old Irish actor thinks everyone should hold their horses, because he believes he is "a bit too old for that". When asked by HELLO! if he would want to play the iconic spy, Cillian's simple answer appeared to shut down the claims that although Bond producer Barbara Broccoli has her eye on him, he doesn't seem to want to pick up Bond's Walther PPK.
Cillian's sons Aran, 17, and Malachy, 18, are both interested in the entertainment industry, with youngest son Aran already working on his first movie, Taiki Waititi's next project.  "I'm very, very proud of him, he's a great, great actor," said Cillian, admitting that his son didn't need any advice from his father.  Hello! Magazine
