Cillian Murphy is dishing on the beloved Peaky Blinders character Tommy Shelby’s music taste and revealing if the gangster would be into Taylor Swift.

The Academy Award winner joined the popstar on Graham Norton’s talk show and even cameoed in her music video for Opalite off of The Life of a Showgirl.

In a recent interview, the Oppenheimer actor was asked if the global popstar would make it onto the war veteran’s playlist.

“Perhaps, yeah! you never know! She can kinda do anything!” Cillian answered, with Tim Roth, who plays John Beckett in Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man added, “He’s a bit of a swiftie.”

The Peaky Blinders alum had participated by doing the voiceover in the song, and after the music video came out revealed in interviews how he felt about his involvement.

"It’s amazing, we were all in the sofa together and then she reached out and of course we all said yeah. It’s good, it’s a really sweet, lovely song and video I was happy to be involved,” Cillian previously told media outlets.

Notably, Taylor and the Irish star seem to share an amicable relationship and have spoken positively about one another.
