Why the fuck is Red Eye not on that list!

I really hope it's the GQ journalist that forgot to include it and not Cillian choosing to ignore it.

Now here is a post that is relevant to my interests!!

My favorite character of his is Tommy Shelby, and it's not close. But he's a great actor, and I've enjoyed him in every role I've seen him in, even when they are small. Haven't seen a few of these, though - I'll have to throw them on my to-watch list.

I saw him in a play in Brooklyn recently-- "Grief is the Thing with Feathers." It was weird af. I didn't know what to make of it. Anyone else see it?

[scriptedending]

Damn, I didn't know this was a thing or I would have tried to see it!

the "poetry" book by max porter? that's a play now?

[artvandellay]

Lol I was just working on this. Oops.

Dark Knight Trilogy tho he was grossly underused

28 Days Later
Peaky Blinders (but it helps that hes the most consistent and well written character lol)

Red Eye. Their chemistry was insane.

Oh yeah, I’ve watched that scene from your gif on Youtube more times than a like to admit. I know it’s not a good look, but fuck was the chemistry insane.

[lyrabjadesss]

Grossly underused was the like 10 sec cameo he had in the Tron reboot. My husband was watching it & I caught a glimpse of Cillian out of the corner of my eye so I sat down on the couch only for him to never reappear again after that scene. Did he owe someone a favor?

[war_machine_rox]

Lol he was suppose to be the main baddie in the sequels. Oops.
