Cillian Murphy[1] (born 25 May 1976) is an Irish film and theatre actor. He has appeared in diverse roles,[2][3] and has been cited as having distinctive blue eyes.[4][5]
A native of Cork, Murphy began his performing career as a rock musician. After turning down a record deal, he made his professional acting debut in the play Disco Pigs. He went on to star in a number of Irish and UK film and stage productions throughout the late 1990s and early 2000s, first coming to international attention in 2003 as the hero in the post-apocalyptic film 28 Days Later. Murphy 's best known roles are as villains in two 2005 blockbusters: the Scarecrow in the superhero film Batman Begins, and Jackson Rippner in the thriller Red Eye. Next came two contrasting, widely acclaimed starring roles: his Golden Globe Award-nominated performance as transgendered outcast "Kitten" in 2005 's Breakfast on Pluto and a turn as a 1920s Irish revolutionary in 2006 Palme d 'Or winner The Wind That Shakes the Barley. 2007 saw Murphy on the London stage in Love Song and onscreen in science fiction film Sunshine.
A resident of London since 2001, Murphy often works in or near London[6] and has no desire to move to Hollywood.[7] Uncomfortable on the celebrity circuit,[8] he customarily gives interviews about his work, but does not appear on television talk shows or discuss details of his private life with the press.
