1
2023 was the year the world learned to pronounce Killian.
2
The ancient Irish name seemed to be on everyone's lips as the film Oppenheimer became a blockbuster with 13 Oscar nominations,
3
including Best Actor for Killian Murphy.
4
Murphy has worked nonstop for nearly 30 years, but it was the epic drama of the atomic bomb that ignited a star.
5
In this moment, with a golden globe under his pork pie hat and the Oscars three weeks away, Murphy is more famous than well-known,
6
so we set out to learn more.
7
We were warned the 47-year-old Irishman is reserved and wouldn't talk about himself,
8
but we discovered finding Killian Murphy depends on where you look.
9
The story will continue in a moment.
10
Ireland's Dingle Peninsula was named for a goddess before such things were written,
11
and for 6,000 years, stories have passed by ear.
12
So if verse inhabits every Irish soul,
13
then in a country pub, Cillian Murphy is among peers, as he would have it,
14
just a man with a pint to lift and no fame to bear.
15
What is the meaning of Ireland to you?
16
I don't think I can answer that question satisfactorily.
17
It's defined who I am as a person and my values.
18
It's just home.
19
Home includes his wife of 20 years, two teenage sons, and Scout, a lab named for the character in To Kill a Mockingbird.
20
That figures, Murphy has always let stories lead his path.
21
You find so much empathy in novels, you know, because there you are putting yourself into somebody else's point of view.
22
And I've always been a big reader.
23
When a movie can connect with someone and they feel seen or feel heard, or a novel can change somebody's life, or a piece of music, an album can change someone's life.
24
And I've had all that happen to me.
25
And that's the power of good art, I think.
26
There's a straight line from the music in the pub to Oppenheimer.
27
I think they're from the same source.
28
I mean, I really do.
29
I don't see, I see it's all in a continuum.
30
You know what I mean?
31
It's just a form of expression.
32
Expression in the eyes of J.
33
Robert Oppenheimer, the physicist who created the atom bomb, but never controlled it.
34
If they detonated too high in the air, the blast wouldn't be as powerful.
35
With respect, Dr. Oppenheimer, we'll take it from here.
36
I remember reading at the beginning about him that he was more riddled than answer.
37
And I thought, oh, okay, wow.
38
That's interesting.
39
I'm curious about your notes.
40
The riddle was in this script by writer-director Christopher Nolan, printed in red so it couldn't be photocopied.
41
I did genuinely think it's one of the greatest screenplays I'd ever read.
42
And you told him, I'll do it?
43
I mean, I said I'd do it before I read it.
44
That's quite a risk a risk why would you do
45
that it's always paid off for me you know in every film
46
that i've worked with him on i'm not going back there have been six chris nolan films for murphy dunkirk inception
47
and three batman titles would you like to see my mask you told me
48
that getting a film made and getting it seen yeah it's a miracle it is
49
and then if if it's anyway good that's a miracle
50
and then if it connects with audiences that's a miracle
51
so it's a miracle upon miracle upon miracle to have a
52
film like oppenheimer it really is his oppenheimer was not
53
so much a miracle as hard work he lost 28 pounds
54
to get the silhouette then he rose to the character step
55
by step over six months reading listening to oppenheimer's lectures
56
and covering miles on the beach performing for scout i remember
57
at one point i said to chris chris there appears to be um he appears to speak dutch here
58
and i think he's giving a lecture dutch here what are we going to do about
59
that and chris said you mean what are you going to do about that
60
what's he saying murphy says he put all he learned in the back of his mind and acted on instinct
61
i think instinct is your most powerful tool that you have as an actor nothing must be
62
predetermined so therefore you mustn't have a plan about how you're going to play stuff
63
and i love that it's like being buffeted by the wind and being buffeted by emotion
64
you don't get to commit the sin and then i was all feel sorry for you emily blunt plays Oppenheimer's tormented wife.
65
You pull yourself together.
66
He's very visceral to be in a scene with.
67
It's like you, he transports you.
68
He'll kidnap you in a scene.
69
My favorite acting moment of his in Oppenheimer is the scene after the bomb has been dropped
70
and he's addressing all of the people at Los Alamos.
71
The world will remember this day.
72
He somehow welds together the concept of being proud of what they did
73
and regretting it very deeply all at the same time.
74
I know.
75
It's too soon to determine what the results of the bombing are.
76
But I'll bet the Japanese didn't like it.
77
No one moment is about one thing.
78
And if you're as agile as someone like Killian and is vulnerable and is clever, you can play it all.
79
But I don't know if many people can do what he does.
80
Killian Murphy discovered agility in his hometown Cork.
81
His mother was a teacher, his father a school inspector.
82
In high school, Murphy and his brother had a band performing led to acting class
83
and his first play this is more like the size of a storage room than a theater yeah
84
but that's all we were used to his first theater 1996 age 20 the play was disco pigs
85
which grew to bigger theaters and became a movie why did you think you could be an actor i didn't
86
I was very comfortable on stage in front of an audience from when I was little.
87
I never had any nerves doing that.
88
I felt that natural, you know, and thrilling.
89
In this theatre, what did you learn about acting?
90
There's a fire escape door right there, and that's kind of an alleyway there, and so you get a lot of,
91
like, drunk guys out of their mind bashing up against the fire escape door, and it used to kind of energize us.
92
So I remember learning about taking whatever you have, sort of responding to whatever the energy is in the room and using it.
93
That's really good training, maintaining your character with the drunk guy yelling through the fire escape door.
94
Yeah, yeah.
95
And I think theater is such an absurd undertaking when you think of it, you know, because at any point it could collapse and go wrong.
96
It's dangerous.
97
Yeah, and I love that aspect of it, yeah.
98
That love led him to drop law school, and since then there have been a dozen plays and 40 movies.
99
I love it when it becomes an immersive experience.
100
I love getting lost in it.
101
In the early days, that was, with theater, it felt kind of extraordinary that with just power of will
102
and a couple of lights and a good script we were creating this world um
103
so that's kind of addictive
104
when it works well it worked well in 2013 in a breakout role as a leading man
105
in the series peaky blinders murphy plays thomas shelby who survives
106
world war one to lead a family of gangsters you're mostly in the war
107
so you know the battle plans always change and get up well here They're all damaged,
108
broken men, but something got knocked in him and he came back with this incredible drive and ambition and like,
109
I'm not afraid of death, so now I can do whatever I want.
110
In Tommy Shelby, you created a sympathetic, relatable monster.
111
Kill.
112
Kill.
113
The only way to make people listen.
114
I like to be challenged, and when I read something, I want to go, I don't really know how I can do that.
115
In 10 years of Peaky Blinders, Murphy came into his own.
116
I heard very early on in my career a director, it was one of the Sydneys, could be in Sydney Pollock,
117
but one of them said it takes 30 years to make an actor.
118
It's not just technique and experience and all that,
119
it's maturing as a human being and trying to grapple with life
120
and figure it out and all of stuff
121
so by the time you've been doing it for 30 years you've all of that banked hopefully
122
and eventually then i think you'll get to a point where you might be an okay actor
123
maturing is the theme of murphy's next film based on the novel small things like these He plays Bill Furlong,
124
tormented by injustice.
125
His wife fears his empathy will upend their lives.
126
Don't you have a question, Ezra?
127
If you want to get on in this life, there are things you have to ignore.
128
That's Eileen Walsh.
129
No actor has known Murphy longer.
130
She was his first partner in Disco Pigs 28 years ago.
131
Is his work ethic rooted in fear or joy?
132
Oh, that's a good question.
133
I think it can only be joy, but it sometimes takes a lot of pain to get to that joy.
134
the deeper we go with acting, the cost is greater for us.
135
And physically, I know Oppenheimer has cost him for the weight loss he insisted,
136
and it was his choice to do, but it was the right choice to create that amazing silhouette.
137
But from the very beginning, our warm-ups for Disco Pigs involved us punching each other.
138
quite hard and like going for it
139
and then bursting out into it this huge ball of velocity
140
coming into it was the beginning of an Oppenheimer was the
141
whole kind of atom of us now after three decades of work,
142
Cillian Murphy is cast in the most familiar Irish legend of all.
143
Maybe there is gold, a 24-karat gold-plated statue, at the end of his spectrum of talent.
144
You have screwed this up, though, you know.
145
In what way?
146
You used to be an actor.
147
Yeah.
148
And now you're a movie star.
149
Oh, okay. Am I?
150
I think you could be both.
151
You know, I've never understood that term really, movie star.
152
I've always just felt like I'm an actor.
153
That's, I think, a term for other people, rather than for me.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
