Cillian Murphy’s son has some explosive news.
Aran Murphy, the 17-year-old son of the Oppenheimer actor and his wife Yvonne McGuinness, is set to star in the upcoming HBO and Sky series War alongside Dominic West and Sienna Miller, according to an Oct. 22 Instagram announcement from his talent agency.
The legal thriller will see a high-powered tech titan (Dominic) and an international superstar (Sienna) go through a messy divorce as two rival law firms compete to triumph both in the courtroom and the world outside of it, per TV Insider.
While the London-based series will be the teen’s first TV show, he previously starred in the 2022 Irish film Lola and has completed filming Taika Waititi’s movie adaptation of Klara and the Sun, which he stars in alongside Amy Adams, Jenna Ortega and Steve Buscemi, per IMDb.
Though Cillian—who also shares son Malachy, 19, with Yvonne—typically keeps his family life private, he previously detailed how he feels about Aran following in his acting footsteps.
