The Peaky Blinders star has never discussed getting any work done, although some people have suspected he might have used Botox to keep his face wrinkle-free over the years, as he turned 47 years old in May 2023.

Cillian landed the biggest lead role of his career in director Christopher Nolan‘s highly anticipated 2023 atom bomb drama Oppenheimer. Audiences have noticed a big change in the Irish actor’s appearance, but it turned out he ate only one almond a day to achieve a dramatic weight loss in order to resemble the gaunt appearance of real-life scientist Robert Oppenheimer.

The superstar’s appearance was the subject of conversation once again when he attended the Oscars on March 10, 2024, once again showing off an ageless look.

In a May interview with The New York Times, the Ireland native wouldn’t reveal his exact weight loss but explained, “I love acting with my body, and Oppenheimer had a very distinct physicality and silhouette, which I wanted to get right.” He added, “I had to lose quite a bit of weight, and we worked with the costume and tailoring; he was very slim, almost emaciated, existed on martinis and cigarettes.”
