Cillian Murphy is one of the favorites for The Best Actor Oscar on March 10 as he is receiving accolades for an exceptional portrayal of J. Robert Oppenheimer in his latest film ‘Oppenheimer’. Surprising everyone, a small section of his hair is already on the auction block, gaining attention for both its fascinating backstory and its exorbitant price tag.
People who wish to have this hair lock fragment which holds exciting history of Cillian will have to spend £6,000 (approximately $7600). This lock is said to be from his Peaky Blinders show wherein many fans understand it as portraying one of his favorite characters. The hair was shaved on the set by swooning that one particular hair look of Murphy.
The auction, administered by Paul Fraser Collectibles, also offers a signature card in which Mr. Murphy’s name is shown as a guarantee. If Murphy does pick up the Oscar, the worth of this item should exhibit predictably higher esteem.
Paul Fraser Collectibles seized a set of locks of hair from other well known individuals, including John Lennon, Justin Bieber, Paul McCartney and one most famous pieces, the lock of hair from which was removed after she sang happy birthday to J.F. Kennedy. This is very expensive, and the price has risen one by a quarter of a million at about £250,000 or nearly $320,000.
While discussing his career, Cillian Murphy was not afraid to be honest, saying about some of his older works “I don’t think it’s good” – and such humiliating facts should come as a pain. Rather, his frankness adds to the flavor of his journey to fame.
