More quotes by Cillian Murphy
I don't have a burning passion to live in America per se but I would certainly like to work there.
Cillian Murphy
I'm pretty adamant to do an American accent because you get it immediately.
Cillian Murphy
And, for any performer, to be able to go deep into character is fantastic. In film you only get to do that if you're the leading character. But in television you get 18 hours to really test the audience and take them to the edge of how far they will go with this character. I can step over this line and I love that.
Cillian Murphy
I think you fall out of love with theater while you're doing your eighth show of your eighteenth week and your body is saying, Please make this end.
Cillian Murphy
I always think it's a sign of a truly gifted director when they can move seamlessly between genres.
Cillian Murphy
[We were very lucky that Sean [ Ellis ] researched the film [Anthropoid ] for many years.] We sort of piggybacked on his knowledge, and he gave us a lot of materials, which we read. For me, the greatest resource was actually shooting the film in Prague.
Cillian Murphy
I never make a distinction between doing a film in Hollywood or doing a film independently. It's just the story. It's always the story for me. The constants are that it should challenge me and I shouldn't repeat myself. And the story should always be a story worth telling.
Cillian Murphy
The best roles you have to fight for. You have to really want to do it and you have to go after it.
Cillian Murphy
I suppose I've always been attracted to this sort of outsider in general - in literature, in music, politics, whatever - and to the person that is able to be relentlessly themselves. I don't think that I have that quality, that strength of mind.
Cillian Murphy
If you behave like a celebrity, then people will treat you like a celebrity, and if you don't, they won't. There's not much to write about me in the tabloids.
Cillian Murphy
The medium is secondary to the stories.
Cillian Murphy
I'd probably have been wealthier if I had stayed with law, but pretty miserable doing it.
Cillian Murphy
I feel very lucky to be making good work still. The confidence of youth, or that sort of competitiveness you get when you're 22 or 23, the impatience - that's probably been tempered. Hopefully I'm slightly better company.
Cillian Murphy
I don't think they'd ever make a movie about Chuck Baker but I'd love to play Chuck Baker
Cillian Murphy
For me, drama is conflict.
Cillian Murphy
I like being at home with my music and my books. I’ve done all the partying, I’ve done enough partying for four or five people as a young fella. But now I like the quiet life.
Cillian Murphy
I'd love to work in America, some of my favourite films come from America.
Cillian Murphy
With some films you can sort of slide in, get a haircut and you're in.
Cillian Murphy
I'm interested in pressure, I'm interested in duress. All the great works of art, or film or literature, in my opinion, have elements of those in them.
Cillian Murphy
I like the little bit of distance that London affords me and I like living in a world capital. I like having the culture at my fingertips.
