So incredibly happy that Cillian is finally getting his long overdue recognition 🥰

the abundance of cillian content recently... amazing

I do find it funny and strange how Cillian Murphy seemed to come out of nowhere for basically most of the media but for everyone paying attention, he's been a diamond in the rough for years.

I don't think there's ever been an actor that's more non-celebrity than Cillian. He's so genuine, so natural and his answers to an interviewers questions are so interesting. I'm so happy that his amazing talent is out there for everyone to see and hear. I first knew of him in PEAKY BLINDERS.

this dude is so laid back and humbling

Cillian Murphy, an Oscar winning actor. I want to hear that

[PamelaScavin]

He's a class act, humble, eloquent, authentic, certainly not full of himself. You are a Great actor and I must my new man crush. Sorry Mrs. Murphy.

[mermaidsexist]

Wonderful talk with Cillian. He shines with authenticity and it’s refreshing ❤

[cidadaoPPT]

I absolutely love this man! It's rare that the universe does things as right as him getting all the recognition he's getting. Anyone who knows Cillian is rooting for him on Oscar night, even though, with or without an award, Cillian already won! This man deserves all the good he gets!

[fieldsofhorsesroam]

I absolutely couldn't adore him more. He is so real!

[truckingwithtobee]

That man is gorgeous. A Oscar is way overdue for him. He’s more talented than most that have received Oscars in the last 10 years.

[reginayoung]

Cillian is a phenomenal actor with genuine heart for his craft!

Many blessings to you always!

I have been watching CILLIAN MURPHY since DISCO PIGS living here in Ireland. I think his new ease began since he started BIG THINGS FILM that is releasing SMALL THINGS LIKE THESE. He now has the ability to give starts to actors, writers, and other film creatives a start. A start he was given when his precocious talent was seen in Irish stage productions. Look at how at ease he has been since his infamous memes of walking through the London crowd at the OPPENHEIMER premiere and the smouldering stroll at the Golden Globes. He is nearing the award season finish line and is now happy to be in company of his peers and more press than ever before.
And the Oscar goes to...
CILLIAN MURPHY!
x!

[helenheeney]

An outstanding man and actor humble and caring 👏

[itsaashish]

And the Oscar goes to Cillian Murphy ❤❤❤

[liverpuddin]

I know he’s probably tired of all these interviews, bless his heart❤

[twononcriticsandacat]

I feel lucky to be alive in these times and have been able to experience in the cinema (multiple times) the masterpiece that is Oppenheimer and Murphy’s monumental performance! His performance is literally the definition of what an Oscar should stand for: talent, commitment, being able to communicate even with silence relating what your character is thinking and feeling, iconic. Such a masterful performance! It’s due for the Irish ☘️

I absolutely loved him in Peaky Blinders.
