Cillian Murphy Highlights Iconic Tommy Shelby Moments

Throughout six seasons, spanning from the 1910s to the 1930s, Murphy's character, Tommy Shelby, has undergone a remarkable transformation as the head of Birmingham's most notorious gang. In the lead-up to the film's release, the Oscar-winning actor shared a countdown of the most cherished moments of Tommy Shelby, eager to see which scenes resonated most with fans.

Among the highlights, the tenth spot features a pivotal moment from the series finale, where Tommy confronts his cousin Michael Gray (Finn Cole) and delivers the iconic line, “Polly was half of me.” Michael, believing Tommy to be responsible for Polly's death at the hands of the Irish Republican Army, attempts to kill him, leading to a dramatic resolution.

Murphy expressed that the cast felt a profound sense of loss during the final season due to Helen McCrory's passing, noting her significant presence during filming. Creator Steve Knight ensured that her character was honored throughout the episodes, making Season 6 a tribute to her memory, as she succumbed to breast cancer on April 16, 2021. Murphy described McCrory as a remarkable talent, blending tenderness and strength in her performances.

The countdown of top moments also featured a scene from Season 3 where Alfie (Tom Hardy) confronts Tommy, and another poignant moment from the series finale where Tommy experiences visions of his deceased daughter, Ruby. Interestingly, Murphy was taken aback by the top-voted scene from Season 1, episode 2, which showcases a tender interaction between Tommy and his late wife, Grace (Annabelle Wallis). He speculated that many romantics contributed to its popularity.
