Irish actors Jamie Dornan and Cillian Murphy have united for Anthropoid, a WWII drama recounting the biographical tale of the assassination attempt on Hitler’s third in command, SS General Reinhard Heydrich.
Coincidentally, they are both lead actors in two extremely popular BBC properties – Belfast-set drama The Fall and Steven Knight’s period drama Peaky Blinders.
Dornan is currently filming the final two Fifty Shades films following his initial appearance in E.L. James adaptation Fifty Shades of Grey in 2014, while Murphy is working with regular collaborator Christopher Nolan on another WWII drama, Dunkirk.
This marks the first time Dornan and Murphy have acted on screen together.
