Aran made his acting debut with 2022’s sci-fi film Lola. In addition to Youth, Aran is also set to star in HBO’s upcoming series War alongside Sienna Miller and Dominic West, along with this year’s film adaptation of Klara and the Sun with Jenna Ortega and Amy Adams.
“I’m a father of two teenagers, and I once was young as well so I recognize how tricky it is as a young person today in society,” Cillian said in 2020, per The Irish Sun. “I think it’s a very complex time growing up, I think things are changing a lot at a very accelerated rate and I think the idea that empathy would form part of a curriculum is an excellent idea.”
He continued: “I think young people generally are caring and compassionate and are willing to be caring and compassionate but if we have something in our education system which underlines that and gives them a program, I think that’s a wonderful idea.”
