‘Oppenheimer’s Cillian Murphy On Why He Likes To See Christopher Nolan Films Without Him In Them & Why He Adores ‘Interstellar’
deadline.comOppenheimer marked the sixth time Cillian Murphy starred in a film directed by Christopher Nolan following The Dark Knight trilogy, Inception and Dunkirk.
Out of the 13 films Nolan has directed, Murphy has been in close to half of them and there’s one particular title that the Irish actor would’ve liked to be a part of. “I adore Interstellar just because I find it so emotional,” Murphy told The Independent in an interview before the SAG-AFTRA strike. “I remember seeing it in the cinema when I had little kids.
It just had a big impact on me. It broke my heart.” Murphy also noted that he enjoys watching Nolan’s work, particularly when he is not part of the ensemble cast. “I love watching his films when I’m not in them because you don’t have to freak out about the size of your ears, or whatever,” he added.
Interstellar is a 2014 science fiction film, directed, co-written and produced by Nolan. The film starred Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, Bill Irwin, Ellen Burstyn and Michael Caine about a group of astronauts who space travel in search of a new home for humankind.
