These are new photos of Cillian Murphy from the In Time premiere in London last night. Cilian is in the film – he’s one of villains, I think, along with Vincent Kartheiser. Cillian was made for villainy – he’s just got the face for it. He’s just got the eyes for it, honestly.
I have to admit, I’m not a big fan of Cillian Murphy as a heartthrob. As an actor, yes, he’s wonderful, and he has talent oozing out of every pore. But I just can’t get hot for him. He has serial killer eyes and he looks like the kind of motherchucker who would “accidentally on purpose” stab you while he was inside of you. Like, “Whoops, my shank slipped!” I’m sure he’s not really like that. I’m sure he’s a really nice guy. In fact I was just reading his recent AV Club interview, and he does sound very nice. Kind of dorky and sweet and humble – you can read the interview here. So even after I read something nice about him, why do I still feel like his eyes are trying to molest me?
Still, I know that Cillian has his devotees amongst you bitches. So enjoy these new photos of him – we rarely get new photos of Cillian, so it is a special occasion. And just be content in the knowledge that I don’t want him and I won’t fight you for him. If I’m going to bare-knuckle it with one of you sluts, it’s going to be over that other Irish bastard, Michael Fassbender.

Hot hot hot! Deff one of my fave actors. He does have serial killer eyes and he can get all sorts of creepy, but he also has depth and talent to spare. I love him, in case I didn’t make myself clear the first time

I think he’s just one of those hot guys who, when you see their photo, they’re kind of “meh, i dunno”, but when you see them on screen with the talking, the hot accent and the face expressions, you finally get it.
Case in point: Cillian or Andrew Garfield, who in my opinion doesn’t photograph so well, but on screen… yum!

Speaking of Fassbender, he had a premiere in Berlin with David Cronenberg. Hope you post the photos, he looks mighty fine.

He is the most gorgeous, amazing man ever. He has been married to his wife for quite a while, so not gay. Word is that she is painfully shy and hates the whole spotlight thing, and that he is very protective of her. He’s also a strict vegetarian, so chances of him stabbing you are slim. He’s sexy because he just looks and behaves like he would tear you the hell apart in bed. Wouldn’t mind a few minutes alone with him…

Cillian Murphy at UK ‘In Time’ premiere: creepy or sexy?
BOTH!
My friend and I have this weird crush on him: we both think he’s super hot but that there’s something wrong with his face. Something we can’t figure out…
We both admit he must be a nice, gentle guy but there’s this innate fear he might stab us in our sleep. We would both totally hit it, but I told her she would go first — if she survived the night, then it would be my turn.
EDIT: my god, Kaiser. Stab us WHILE he’s doing us (which would be weird, he’d be doing us twice, at the same time…creepy)??? At least I think he’ll wait until we sleep to kill us.

I like Cillian as an actor. He is definitely underrated in a world where the mediocre likes of Pattinson are overrated. He has great screen presence. Plays great bad guys. He has that Sean Bean quality in terms of acting; capability of playing good and bad characters.

I love him. I read that he’s very shy and quiet also and doesn’t usually do premieres or red-carpet events. He has talent, depth, piercing eyes and smouldering looks. And apparently very committed to his wife. Love him!

I feel his hotness was really sold to me in “Sunshine”. At the end, the wonder on his face was so amazing, I absolutely fell for him. I wish he wasn’t doing this stupid movie, I feel he really has more talent than having to work with Timberlake.

One of the greatest actors of his decade and a gorgeous guy. on pictures he might not be able to show his hotness, but I’ve seen him on stage twice and believe me he’s the cutest and most gorgeous man. and he’s packed with talent, his movie appearances are always brillant and I enjoy every bit of him, whenever there is a movie or a play to happen
I also happen to have met his wife and saw him with his kids on this years galway’s arts festival. he was adorable with his kids. he most certainly is not gay.
thank you kaiser for the report on him at the premiere, I highly appreciate it because as you said these appearances are rare.

Both. I’m with you on the serial killer eyes, but there’s something so attractive about him. Every time I see him on TV I think “I’m turned on, but I don’t know if I feel good about it.” Like he might not shank you while he’s inside you, but he might give you the best ride of your life or just slit your throat. I’m never sure which, and maybe once it was over you wouldn’t be sure which you received either.

I honestly thought I was weird for finding him so attractive since he’s not typically handsome. Glad to see I’m not the only one.
My husband and I split up early in our relationship and I saw Red Eye over and over again because Cillian has the same lips and eye color as my husband.

@Tripmom: Just a word to the wise: someone being a vegetarian does not at all mean that they won’t maim or kill you. They may love animals, if that is their reason for being a vegetarian, but that does not mean that they have the same regard for humans. I know that you know that already, but I just felt like it was a good thing to write anyway.
Back to the post. I think he is both creepy and sexy. He is a great actor, and I hope he gets some great movie roles in the near future. I just can’t take “In Time” seriously because of Justin Timberlake and Amanda Seyfried; but, hey, I could be wrong, it could be a good movie.
You know, it was really surprising to see him in “TRON”. I knew he was going to be in it, but it was kind of funny how small his role was. It was almost as if he was an extra. DId anyone else find that odd?

I think it was George Clooney´s character in “Up in the Air” who said that prejudices save time.
I agree, they often do.
Eyes don´t lie. These are the eyes of a sociopath. I am amazed at how many of you find him “hot” and just hope you´d be more careful if you met someone like that in real life. I am not saying such a meeting would necessarily result in getting stabbed during sex, but getting involved with a sociopath is never a good idea.

He is lovely. I’d like to take a stab at why he looks weird: his right eye is so much smaller than his left, and the distance between his nose & mouth is quite large. I think thise two elements, plus the plump, luscious lips loutrageous cheekbones, and the light color of his eyes, remind us of too many werewolves & vampires. Hope that helps. Cannot STAND how stupid his suit jacket looks w/the one button. It isn’t fitting him correctly. He also looks embarrassed-and as if, letting us look at him, he will be ‘uncovered’. I think he wishes he never had to go to a film premier. He’s an ACTOR not a STAR.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. That’s a pretty serious and strong statement.
Plus, we’re just joking here. I’m sure that if any of us meets a “sociopathic looking” gentleman in real life, we’ll wait and get to know him better before jumping into bed with him.
By the way, I have met people who had the kindest, sweetest eyes ever (in my life) and they were deceiving too.

I really love him. Sometimes he’s can lose his sex appeal when he plays bad guys, he’s just creepy. Like in Batman and Red Eye he was so far from sexy to me but I think he can turn on the sexy in other roles.
In ‘the retreat’ and ’28 days later’ he was really sexy. I love him. So talented. And that accent

Creepy sexy in real life, but just beautiful on film.
He was totally the star of Inception for me. In the middle of all the schlock and diCaprio’s squeezed-up baby face, Cillian really made me feel sadness for the son’s hopeless longing for his father’s approval (and goodness knows what a hackneyed theme that is in films — I’m looking at you, Spielberg).

I’ve been a fan since 28 Days Later. I usually didn’t look twice at actors my age, I prefered much older actors. Cillian was different: though he could be defined as a “pretty boy”, there was nothing bratty or immature about him.
A very serious actor, a devoted husband and father, a smart and very beautiful man.
I think the disconcerting thing about Cillian is, he is too beautiful. Quite androgynous, almost ageless, he’s 36 and he doesn’t look a day older than 25…this on screen. In interviews he just looks gorgeous, not feminine at all.
Report this comment as spam or abuse
Cillian is far from creepy. He was made to seem so in Red Eye and I worked out why that was – he had his eyebrows narrowed and shaped (maybe had been playing one of his female parts in the same year). He has fabulous Celtic eyes and looks – and is one of those actors who creeps up (sic) on you. I always thought he was talented but after watching Misterman (twice – a tour de force) and a number of his films, I realise that he may well be THE actor of his generation. So brave, funny, intense, still and vulnerable. And so small which seems to magnify his talent. Behind this lies what seems to be a mature, self aware and contained man in a very stable marriage, which makes him even more desirable.He could be a huge star and the next year will test whether he wants that or not.
