Cillian Murphy on Sunshine | Empire Magazine

[@antoniamccutcheon4485]

He is so down to earth. I don't even think he realizes how hot he is! lol

[@yvettemoore1228]

I hope he never does! He'd lose his appeal 😉

[@laxale]

I think he doesn't even care if he's hot or not. I think he just wants to be a good actor.

[@leesydneyharry7958]

Well he’s not if your a man. Unless a man is egotistical he never really knows he’s hot in the eyes of a woman. Intelligence or the pursuit of excellence is of greater importance.😊

[@zachshelton9631]

This movie is a masterpiece. Truly underated, sit down and watch this movie without interruption and your mind will be blown.

[@22grena]

Shame about the lousy ending

[@Nick-wj3jy]

The movie seemed nice, however, some flaws in the script makes it a bit difficult to agree with. There is absolutely NO way the person responsible (Tray in this movie) for the space flight/trajectories would forget about realigning the sun-shield when he changed course. You can't just forget to do that. it is like going outside in space and supposedly forgetting to take oxygen with you in your suit. And when mace volunteers kappa for the repairs? If Kappa dies for any reason during the repairs, Noone will know how to operate the bomb so the mission would have failed. That is why Kappa is the one taking the only one suit to go back to icarus 2. He is priority one. Moreover, When Kappa realizes there is 5th crew member on the ship, he goes to face him alone without even informing the others of the possible threat?? There are plot holes in this movie and they make one wonder about what he/she is watching. Finally, on a logical point of view, it makes 100% more sense that you would not even take 0.000001% chance of going to go to Icarus 1 to possibly have 2 last chances. You would 100% try to protect the 1 chance you have with everything you got, and not jeopardise that one chance by going to see if icarus 1 works. If that one chance didn't work, then go back to mercury, and THEN try to see if icarus 1 has anything to offer...

@@Nick-wj3jyYour points are very relevant and I appreciate what you're saying but at least this film goes beyond 'Event Horizon' level silliness. I re-watched that last night and was not impressed! As Cillian says in the interview, even with all the highest concepts in the world, it's down to "entertainment" in the end and as this film goes, despite obvious inaccuracies, plot holes and flaws (damn it, we couldn't re-ignite the sun anyway) it still stands as one of the most impressive and entertaining sci-fi films ever made; even on the merits of its visuals alone. This film continues to stick with me (much like the Sodebergh 'Solaris' remake) and I will no doubt carry on returning to it

[@priscilajunger6276]

True!

[@thenamelessone123]

Completely agree - masterpiece film

[@aap2310]

He's so mythically beautiful. The sexiest man with a voice like honey.

[@dayonmage3946]

I wish Cillian Murphy got the recognition he deserves. people don't really talk about him in the mainstream here in the U.S. it feels like...and it's not surprising since we Americans have our heads up our asses and cannot differentiate between good entertainers and bad entertainers.

He's one of my favorite actors since he's so versatile. Never a boring performance from him... and this was a really nice interview. He was very energetic and smiled a lot. You don't see that too often.

That might be the best most upbeat interview he's ever done. Like, EVER! 🤯

[@flala2261]

Definitely 😅🙌

[@renaissanceman5296]

There’s this new one he did for Vice, it’s called ‘Cillian Murphy’s autobiography’ and he’s really open in that. You should definitely check it out.

I literally stared at his wedding ring the whole time finding ways to tear it off. It just shines there and mocks me.

[@cassidyho939]

Nothing short of removing his ring finger- or knocking him out first before removal- will cure that.

If U wake Up one morning and its a particulary beautiful day, u know we Made it. Thats the sentence i can remember. Maybe one of the Most emotional sentences i ve ever Heart in a movie. And that was years ago.

[@elliedancer8183]

when he stutters it's so cute

[@ciaracustard]

Can I just say that it makes me incredibly happy to know that Professor Brian Cox was the physicist that adviced on the science of this film. Cillian Murphy and Professor Brian Cox were in a room together talking about science. That might mean nothing to a lot of people, to me that is a beautiful thought and damn hot.

[@fvulpe9503]

Murphy takes his films very seriously. He did a lot of reading for this one as he does for pretty much every role, certainly the complex stories. He has said interviews that because of the research he did for Sunshine and the experts and physicists and scientists he spoke with, like Brian Cox, in that process and all the reading he did, he walked away from his Catholic faith (an enormous thing to do in Ireland) and became atheist. He said there's no way there's any kind of omnipotent eternal being. It's simply not logical is the term I think he used. A statement like that and others that I've read that are why I would choose a long conversation with him before I'd choose a photo or autograph.

[@nycdweller]

One of my all time favorite movies

[@BeHappy-mr2oj]

Киллиан Мёрфи выбирает персонажа , а не фильм. И его работа безупречна . Он любой фильм поставит на много уровней выше . Поэтому если фильм в общем вам не понравился, то наслаждайтесь игрой этого безумно талантливого актёра .

Totally agree 💯

[@venmxshadows]

Reading a lot of these comments makes me very proud to be from Ireland and to have the same accent 😁

[@sabrinagoodwill7433]

[@AleksandreMzhavia]

I like this guy, why don't we see him in more movies?

[@ClothyCentral]

he's a stage actor as well, I suppose because he doesn't devote his life to Hollywood he doesn't get very big roles. he's brilliant in peaky blinders though.

[@PeachTea38]

watch PEAKY BLINKERS !!!

[@katiboss4417]

simple reason... HE DOESNT WANT!!!!

[@fvulpe9503]

He doesn't do stage anymore. He's actually in quite a few. One which was inexplicably released straight to DVD is Peacock and is actually very good but.bunusual. A as are many of his. Includes Susan Sarandon and Elliot Page (then Ellen). He just excels in everything he does. Peacock is one that might not appeal to some people. Inception has been called a perfect movie but I just can't get beyond half an hour. And I'm not a stupid person. I just don't like it. Don't care about the characters. Although I'm sure I'll continue to try from time to time. Breakfast on Pluto (KZbin) is a must. One of his first which is amazing in itself. Do more online research. If you do a search for Cillian Murphy films, you'll get a number, like 10, 12 or so, the big ones, maybe more but that's certainly not all. If you keep searching both on KZbin and Google you actually learn that there's a lot there, it's just some are small films, or some didn't do very well, even though they're good, for whatever reason. Free Fire is an example. I've not seen it. Likely hard to find. Poor reviews. Searching for reviews can bring up many. And he had small roles in some of them. He was actually in Cold Mountain but a very small role, on camera for a couple of minutes only, far into the story, and he's virtually unrecognizable except for his voice and body size. But I'd never seen it and enjoyed it. My annoyance right now is that I never saw Oppenheimer in the theater, only online, because I just never got around to doing it. Unless too busy. And so now that I actually have the time it's no longer in theaters. It's probably gone to DVD.. I hope some IMAX theaters bring it back now that it's won so many Oscars.

[@Senimsaj]

This is one gorgeous and extremely talented man

[@PeachTea38]

what a beautiful man !!

[@rainbowmuppet]

my mom walked in on me watching Sunshine and was like "THAT'S the guy you like so much? He's weird," and said weird with that tone of voice that makes it also mean "a horrible person who shouldn't exist." I wanted to be like, "Woman. You don't know him. Just because he plays interesting characters sometimes doesn't mean he's a bad person."

Dude, Cillian what happened to your interviews? You are so excited here and so bored now, I wished to here the questions maybe interviewers will take heed and get this kind of energy from him again.

[@spunkymunky7]

His hand actions from 1:30 to 1:40 make me laugh XD

[@starwarsexpert38]

He is my inspiration for getting into acting.

[@falloutpunk]

Ahh I'm so excited I got the exact same message from the film as Cillian did! One of the reasons (along with the dozens of others I gush about at length to anyone who will listen to me) I found this film so uniqe and intersting and unlike anything ever done, was the incorporation of having a scientific dilemma with a religious and moral focus into a film with so many other things going on and still having it a salient point that's opens minds and begs discussion.

[@Moistcraictical]

@yaeleo002 His accent isn't gone at all.. I can still hear I straight-up Cork accent. He's just so enthusiastic and relaxed that he's not mumbling and it's easier to understand him.. Cause he does mumble quite a lot. xD

I think I know why they sent Cillian Murphy to the Sun to revive it, it’s because he’s so HOT that when he gets the Sun, he’ll instantly catch it on fire again because how HOTTTTTTT HE IS, so the sun will be back to its burning ways and I WILL DREAM OF CILLIAN. ❤❤🔥🔥🔥🔥💀 I just realized, if he went to the sun, he would actually be TOO HOT, because well, he is REALLLY REALLY HOT, so that will make the sun burn super duper bright causing the earth to explode. But hopefully Cillian will only take ME into space to avoid dying or something 🎉😂😂❤ CILLIAN IS HOT. THAT IS BASICALLY THE PLOT OF THE MOVIE. 💀

[@theweirdkids1]

when he said "danny" (my name too) i just melted

[@emilydominko]

*faints* Holy shit he is sooooo hot!!!!!!!

[@JFri4321]

It's simply because he HAS stated the prep for this movie converted him from agnostic to atheists... It's worth mentioning because deep down that's really the only question that matters to us all, and movies like Sunshine will make you ponder that ultimate question. 10/10 for Cillian and Sunshine.

[@Sojourno]

Who the hell cares if he's atheist or not? I'm Catholic and one of my best friends is muslem. What does his religeous beliefs has to do with him being one of the most badass actors alive??

[@crossbearer6453]

Sojourno you are a true Christian. Keep it up But in a more serious note:one of the scientists who worked on the movie was Professor Brian Cox,infact Cillian’s character is a sort of adaptation of him...and Cillian spoke to these scientists before becoming an atheist,yet anytime Professor Brian Cox or even Neil Degrasse Tyson is asked on the existence of God. What they say mostly translates to “science can’t prove He exists but it also can’t prove He doesn’t exist”. So maybe Cillian just didn’t want him to exist and wanted any reason he could get to justify that..

[@emilydominko]

I can imagine Cillian in another remake of Romeo & Juliet :) to me, he IS Romeo Montague!! And if anyone had to play Juliet; it would be me (just saying) or Ashlynn Yennie (from The Human Centipede)

[@MuseToYourEars]

@Mulatje89 He said they're recreating the big bang, and says, in a sincere manner and with awe and respect in his voice that it's "mind blowing stuff"... which pretty much implies that he believes in it. That's what I got from it anyway.

[@sarahptvd1055]

He is so hot!

[@ksimvanderhlaar]

Is it me or is Cillian showing some mannerisms adopted from Brian Cox here?

[@akufnohenen]

Yes! He actually worked with Cox to copy the mannerisms of a nuclear physicist for a while and ended up just copying Cox's personal idiosyncrasies.
