Why is there no Turkish subtitles?
I’ve read that Cillian likes his life to be kept private. He looks comfortable doing this interview but I’m sure he’s ready to get the award season over with so he doesn’t have to do so many of these interviews.
cause he has to answer the same questions over and over again
yeah seems like since it's for a Nolan film, he's a tad more comfortable with it than usual, I dunno
I think about that same thing all the time!) He deserves a separate Oscar for this tour!)
@@TheKyd-td7fxno he has done 6 movies with Nolan and is usually doesn’t do much interviews. He’s up for an Oscar he has to do this also the movie grossed nearly a billion
Well. If He wants the awards He has to play the game. Suck it up and do it
Hats off to his agent\agents for making absolutely sure that his press tour is actually suited for his personality. No silly interviews with puppies or whatnot...just art and the respect for it. Bravo team!
I agree. But I won't lie I wouldn't mind an interview of Cillian interacting with puppies even though I doubt he'd ever do one.
Yes , with bunch of stupid KZheadrs and all.
@@Missjunebugfreak I think puppies interviews have a place and time. Talking about Oppenheimer might not be the greatest place hahah
I think cillian would like the puppies lol
Nothing wrong with the Puppies interview pls. 'serious' actors have done it and survived
I love Cillian’s calming aura, he’s so effortlessly cool and chill
I've always thought he'd make for a great radio host since he has that naturally calm attitude and a lovely voice.
he actually does a radio show mini-series every few years. It's like middle of the night on sundays where he plays the weirdest music imaginable@@Missjunebugfreak
He reads sleep stories on the Calm app
He's so elegant. His voice is extremely beautiful. He's well spoken, he's just almost perfect.
His parents are educators
Incredible
I’m a simple woman: i see Cillian Murphy, i click
I know just what you mean, darlin--- :) Laying aside all his brilliance...
A friend of mine told me a lot of women ate into him
Same here. I could watch him speak and gaze at his face the entire day😅
I get it. I’m a straight male and even I could stare into his eyes all day.
Married and obsessed with Cillian Murphy!
First seen him as a kid in theaters when he played Scarecrow, then as a teen when he is Thomas Shelby, and now as a young adult as he embodies Oppenheimer. Cillian always understood the assignment, and he deserve that Oscar.
Those of us growing up with him have loved him for awhile huh
He played the scarecrow so well!! And then his Thomas character… I legit got sad that they’re ending it off there. He plays his roles so perfectly!
And the Oscar goes to Cillian Murphy.😍😍😍
It will be between Cillian and Paul Giamatti.
@@knoflowgaming8725he’s owed one but I’m sorry bro let’s be fr
Nothing beats Cillian’s performance. Oscars this year should be. Oppenheimer- best picture, sound, actor, supporting actor (male at least ), cinematography, director.
@adrizzle71🍀🍀🍀🙏🙏🙏😊
Yess please 🙏
please keep the Cillian Murphy content going
he doesn’t want to
@@MrJose136231he got a point
it'll stop once he wins the oscar
@@blackgrlfly that’s true
he’s tired 😂😭
I could watch interviews like this all day.
Same, just wanna know more about him
he's so pretty it's insane
I know, that jawline, those eyes ❤
HE'S TAKING THE OSCAR!!!!!
Gosh he definitely should a genius
I think Cillian will definitely win the Oscar for OPPENHEIMER. ❤
Hopefully but the Oscar people are strange but he's soooooo deserving for sure
The Oscars voters don't like being told what to do
"I love those high waisted pleated pants" sounded like a secret reference to Breakfast on Pluto...
Cillian said he used David Bowie as an inspiration. David wore the high waisted, pleated pants. David is a FASHION ICON AND LEGEND.
@@dextermoore278 and so is Kitten Braden.
@@DeadLongEnough 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 NEVER HEARD OF HER SO SHE OBVIOUSLY ISN'T A LEGEND.
@@dextermoore278Have you seen Breakfast on Pluto?
This is one of the most intelligent and insightful interviews I’ve ever seen an actor give - he’s just incredible and so generous in offering up all his experience and technique for this project.
I can listen to him for hours. He's so fascinating and well spoken
His Irish accent makes his speech lyrical sounding.
Hope he will look into more narration (he has narrated several Roald Dahl books).
I love Cillian getting all this shine finally
He's had shine for a decade
..... in the UK anyway
Cillian is just so lovely and cool at the same time. It's hard to not be charmed by him.
Oppenheimer was one of my favorite films of 2023. I just got the movie on Blu Ray and watched it again. Christopher Nolan along with the cast and crew of this film knocked it out of the park. This movie deserves all the awards it gets.
I'm a wee bit obsessed with Cillian and the film. I bought it and have watched it 8 times. 😬
@@ceelavee nice 😎
That movie deserves to be urinated on. It was terrible!
wtf... people still sells cds?
@@r.sakarollsafe1285 I buy music CDs because I like the feeling of physically owning something.
he’s so pleasing to listen and comforting . love cillian
That's why he does a lot of audio books and podcasts as well
I’m glad he dispelled the almond rumor. I kept seeing people take that seriously lol
He seems so lovely ❤
Such a great actor and film 👏
A superb Actor and beautiful human just outstanding in his performances ❤
Cillian Murphy is such an underrated actor. You can see the passion and energy and understanding of his character. He becomes a presence in his scenes, even if he's doing a secondary character. I very much enjoyed how he portrayed Oppenheimer in the movie. I saw all the mannerism that Oppenheimer had in him, and Cillian catches those little details, making the character even more real.
Underrated? Are you serious?! He’s been in 6 Nolan films, and he’s going to win an Oscar.
he’s not underrated , he’s just more private unlike more celebrities lol.
@@222.starrrr I was responding to a previous comment, but it wouldn’t let me address it directly.
@@chriswright4677 ohh my fault 😭
the real oppenhirmer had no empathy or guilt for what he did to Hiroshima
Murphy gave one of the best Bio-Pic Performances and deserves The Oscar.
A masterful actor
I’m just so happy that his talent is finally being recognized on the level it should. Nolan always knew.
I didn’t watch this movie till 2 weeks ago and I’ve watched it 7 times since please watch it if you haven’t already it’s a masterpiece.
I saw it in IMAX. My 1st Nolan movie in IMAX. Let's just say it feels completely different than on a smaller screen. It's like a completely different experience. I totally get why Nolan says his movies are best in IMAX & I completely agree.
Totally agree..a masterpiece ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Absolutely 💯
I could listen to him talking all day, love his voice!
I really want to see him again as Thomas Shelby.
Can’t pass up any opportunity to listen to Cillian!!! Really hope he wins that well deserved Academy Award.
He is a legend 🔥🔥
he is one of my fav actors, like he’s so talented!! hope he wins an oscar for oppenheimer, he did a great job in that movie xx
His eyes are ❤❤❤
i lost count of the number of times i watched peaky blinders!! he's mesmerizing in his role!!! but all of the cast were great!!!
Wow. He’s so beautiful and talented.
Cillian is absolutely brilliant in everything I have seen. It's like he opens his soul and absorbs the role he's playing, and they become one.
I am lost in those gorgeous ice blue eyes. 🥰
Cillian Murphy is an amazing actor, so many memorable performances over the years, he stole the show in Oppenheimer, really hope he wins the Oscar. 😊
His eyes 💙💙
Cillian Murphy has to be the most nonchalant actor in all of Hollywood.
Up there with Keanu Reeves
Also, Morgan Freeman is like that also.
Cillian is someone absolutely at peace with himself.
Now I am become GQ, the destroyer of male models.
😂😅
He’s just amazing
He's a shoe in for that Oscar. If they don't give it to Giamatti as an upset.
One of my alltime favorite movies is Disco Pigs. He’s amazing in it, imo.
Absolutely. Haven't watched it in years - need to watch it again
Shout out to The Wind That Shakes the Barley and Breakfast on Pluto too. He's brilliant in both and more people need to check these out!
@@roadrollerdio565 definitely. All the early Irish movies are some of the best imo. Enjoyed On the Edge as well
By Order of the Peaky Blinders
Cillian to win Oscar#
I agree with Cillian, we should bring back high waisted pleated wide leg trousers for men.
Excellent interview. Great questiond and well thought out answers.
He doesn't need an Oscar, the Oscar needs him
Well said! If Cillian does NOT win, NO ONE will EVER watch the Oscars again. Few enough people are watching now!
his voice is so soothing
Awesome interview of one of my fave actors, Cillian Murphy! Thanks for getting Cillian to answer the questions! Nolan is awesome too. Love you, Cillian!
Fantastic interview and that photoshoot, wow! 🤩
"I probably had a big sandwich..." this guy is a pillar and an institution.
He's so ready to be done with these interviews.
Gillian Murphy is a world class actor
Great interview I learned a lot Cillian Murphy is great and I’m always thankful to try and pick up on some of his traits
I love that Cillian Murphy says he probably had a sandwich after filming
“that horrible word content” 😂😂 so true cillian
Always fascinating to hear what this gent has to say. He really enjoy acting, and his performances are always fantastic, no matter what the movie.
Thomas shellby liking openheimer suits😌😉
WOW i love Cillian ❤
Cillian is amazing❤️
"Cillian Murphy, you've just completed one of the best acting performances in living memory, what are you going to do now!?!?" "Sandwich and a pint of Guinness sounds quite nice..."
A true thespian.
This guy is so cool, like a not-buff Henry Cavill
In the Southwest, the deserts do routinely get below freezing at night. The air is dry, so the heat vanishes between sunset and sunrise. 40 degrees Fahrenheit in the desert at night in July and August is usual, though it is well into the 120s by the afternoon.
Great content. Lovely video. Thank you
Quest’uomo mi incanta, resterei a guardarlo per ore…TI AMO ❤
I feel a great swell of pity for the people who haven't seen this movie in IMAX.
He’s definitely gonna get that 🏆 at the Oscars for this 🎥
I loooooove him so.much
Love him !!!
Been a fan of, Cillian Murphy since ''Red Eye.'' He's as interesting off camera as he is, in the movies. A well deserved Oscar for Oppenheimer too. Masterful performance.
Cillian ❤
I can't wait to see him win his well deserved Oscar!!! One of the best actora around 🙌🏼
So pure❤
He’s a fantastic actor! Great questions! LOVE this video:))
Read the book, the government really screwed Opie. He was very soft spoken as is Cillian.
No hate but i just realized who he has always been reminding me of. Handsome Squidward.
legend
Legendary
I'm Fascinated by Cillian Murphy
Cillain Murphy is an amazing actor 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
He is absolutely beautiful
FUTURE OSCAR WINNER CILLIAN MURPHY!!!
There were times when I would think I was hearing Robin Williams speaking while watching this film. Such an amazing performance all around.
“Stop eating my sesame cake!” -Captain Wanta
He will win the oscar. That's an order, Academy!
What a diva unisex outfit 🖤
I got goosebumps thinking about filming at the actual sites!
award season aka new cillian content season
That's a really interesting idea - having two actors play Bruce Wayne. One for when he is Batman. Implying that Wayne himself is playing a character.
I can’t wait to see his next role.
MY KINGGGGG
He better win the oscar....
Cillian Murphy I am truly your biggest fan You are always the best I love you so much I wish you success always❤️❤❤
High-waisted pleaded pants!! Bring them back, you read my mind Cillian!
He is attractive! ❤
Genialer Film💣
