Academy Award winner Cillian Murphy surprised many fans with a recent statement. The 49-year-old starred in Christopher Nolan's 2023 film, Oppenheimer, alongside Matt Damon and Robert Downey Jr. The movie is a historical drama based on physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer's work on the atomic bomb.
In a recent interview, Murphy discussed the risks he took by agreeing to the project without reading the script first. Despite this, he praised the screenplay as one of the best he's ever read. He admitted to saying 'yes' to Nolan before reading the script, showing his trust in the director.
Murphy's decision to work with Nolan was based on their successful collaborations in the past, including Batman Begins, Dunkirk, and Inception. His role in Oppenheimer earned him the Best Actor Award at the 2024 Oscars, solidifying his success in the film.
