You may have definitely seen Cillian Murphy’s movies, but you may not necessarily know him. He once revealed in an interview, “I have openly and privately told Nolan that if I have the time and he needs me, regardless of the size of the role, I will act. But to be honest, deep down, I really hope to play the lead role for Nolan once, which is something I have never said to anyone before.” From supporting roles to continuous efforts, until “Inception”, Cillian Murphy finally fulfilled his wish to be the male lead for Nolan for the first time, and once again sparked discussions with the film, making his acting career go uphill.
