Cillian Murphy’s winning first Academy Award for his portrayal of Julian Oppenheimer
Murphy's portrayal of J. Robert Oppenheimer, the father of the atomic bomb, in the Christopher Nolan-directed biopic that won Best Director on Sunday brought him his first Academy Award for Best Actor.
Cillian Murphy is famous for his roles in movies like Red Eye, 28 Days Later, Intermission, Breakfast On Pluto, and now Oppenheimer. But it was his portrayal of Thomas Shelby in the hit series Peaky Blinders that really made him a global sensation. The show ran for 6 seasons and brought Murphy worldwide fame.
Murphy's Speech After Receiving Best Actor at Oscars
Murphy expressed his gratitude to Nolan, 53, the Academy, and other parties during his acceptance speech, adding that he was "a little overwhelmed" by the accolade.
"It's been the wildest, most exhilarating, most creatively satisfying journey you've taken me on over the last 20 years. I owe you more than I can say," he continued. "Thank you so much [to] every single crew member, every single cast member, on Oppenheimer; you guys carried me through. All my fellow nominees, I remain in awe of you guys. Truly."
Murphy then shared his gratitude for his "incredible team" and his family, including his wife of nearly 20 years Yvonne McGuinness, and their sons Malachy, 18, and Aran, 16, who were in the audience. "I love you so much, and I'm a very proud Irish man standing here tonight," he said.
The Oppenheimer actor continued, "We made a film about the man who created the atomic bomb. And for better or for worse, we're all living in Oppenheimer's world, so I would really like to dedicate this to the peacemakers everywhere." The actor concluded his speech, "Go raibh míle maith agaibh" — an Irish saying which translates to "Thank you."
Colman Domingo for Rustin, Paul Giamatti for The Holdovers, Jeffrey Wright for American Fiction, and Bradley Cooper for Maestro were the other finalists for best actor.
Murphy received praise from critics for his depiction of Oppenheimer's moral quandaries, and he was recognized with multiple awards earlier this year at the SAG, BAFTA, and Golden Globes.
