Like father, like son.
Cillian Murphyâs younger son, Aran, is following in his fatherâs career footsteps â the budding actor has scored a role on an upcoming HBO series, âYouth.â
However, itâs not just his talent that iis attracting attention. The 19-year-old is stunning fans with his striking physical resemblance to his dad, as well.
On Friday, Aran walked the red carpet in London for the new show, with photos of the event going viral on social media. Commenters raved about how much he looked like the award-winning âOppenheimerâ and âPeaky Blindersâ star, calling the young man a âcopy and pasteâ and a âclonedâ version of his famous parent.
âThatâs his twin,â one commenter noted.
âNo DNA test needed,â quipped another.
Aran has shown interest in acting from a young age, having starred in a production of the stage show âHamnetâ at age 11. His film debut was 2022âs âLola,â and in 2024 he was cast in âKlara and the Sun,â Taika Waititiâs feature adaptation of the New York Times bestseller by Kazuo Ishiguro, alongside Amy Adams and Jenna Ortega.
Last year, he was brought on the cast of HBO and Sky Televisonâs âWAR,â which also features Sienna Miller and Dominic West.
Cillian, 50, shares Aran and older brother Malachy, 20, with wife Yvonne McGuinness, whom heâs been married to since 2004. The couple have prioritized giving their sons a normal life outside of the spotlight, raising them away from Hollywood.
While both kids were born in London, the family moved to Dublin in 2015 to be close to Cillianâs Irish roots and family.
âTheyâre really good boys. We have a laugh,â Cillian told Rolling Stone UK in 2023 of his sons. âWe donât do âDadâs Movie Nightâ, but they like some of my films. They say all my films are really intense.â
