If they gave an Oscar for lack of ego and professional generosity, Matt Damon would surely win it...
Cillian is one of Ireland's greatest actors of recent times, we Irish are very proud of him and the tribute by another great actor, Matt Damon, means a lot.
Your not gone give any Yanks the pride of their Heritage 😂😂
Fiddley-Ay-Day-Day, and a happy new year to yourself.
A pint of porter's your only man.
As well you should be. He is amazing actor and kind, down to earth person as well. Great example of Irish person.
He’s irelands greatest ever actor, not one of

Big stretch to call him the greatest, though he is a superb actor
Matt Damon is such an intelligent, talented, humble actor. Adore him and his work!
Agreed. The Bourne trilogy is legendary.
Agreed - I'll watch any film in which he is cast - the quality is guaranteed.
you need to look deeper he has some deep arrogant issues treating people like 💩 from some things ive seen ..use to like him but after seeing some stuff i thought who is this ..anyway moving on
@@thecelt4807j
You might like to be the one who looks 'deeper': he's got a fantastic reputation as a human, fwiw. If you're reading tabloids - tragic.
Think on that couch ninja gossip biddy mode, bruh.
@@thecelt4807 noted, thanks. Few ppl expose their character flaws openly.
I like this interviewer. He's grounded and not trying to steal the attention. Good work.
I hope Oppenheimer, win all the Oscar awards, especially Cillian for the best actor
For Matt Damon to give a compliment like this shows how good Cillian really is... Well deserved.
I like this interviewer. I liked the questions he asked. It was interesting and not the same boring generic questions, and you could tell he was really listening, not just waiting to get to the next question.
Cillians eyes are his best tool the man can scare the hell out of you or rip your heart out just with his eyes I watch EVERY episode of Peaky Blinders and when he is on scene you read the moment in his eyes
Absolutely 💯
Matt Damon is one of my favourite actors he was in Ireland through covid and presented himself one of the guys his uptake on our mr Murphy is no more than I thought of this likable American man
Cillian is simply phenomenal in everything he does and deserves recognition now 👏👏👏 if he doesn't win an Oscar something is drastically wrong
Cillian is a great actor and worked hard for everything he got.
Who cares about Oscars? They are meaningless.
Agree
They had best give him an Oscar or he might Nuke them
He can't win an Oscar that wouldn't be diverse enough.
I wasn't expecting my theater to applaud once the credits started, but they did. ❤
Same at my screening. Sold out showing and third time that's happened at a Nolan flick.
soooo good to see Cillian in a role as big as this..... very well deserved!!!!
"I started as a private and now i'm a general." 😁
Cillian a genius
Cillian must get an Oscar for this monster of a film
This is one of those movies that will be studied by newer generations because it really shows what elements a good movie is truly made of. I really hope they win some top shelf awards. They deserve it.
alright it wasnt that great lol
I was surprised at how quickly the three, intense, hours went. Oscar worthy performances all around all around. I definitely will go see it again.
We love our Cillian so very much. We are very proud of him. Ireland has a great record of wonderful talented actors for a small country. 🇮🇪🙏☘️❤️🇮🇪
Nothing to do with him being Irish. Stop being arrogant.
Maybe not Colin Farrell 😂
have we? 🤣
Great record?
@@randomdaveUK Yeah, Sean Connery, best Irish accent I've ever heard.
Saw it yesterday. Very impressive
Cillian looks like him. He got the eyes good too. The mannerisms. Excellent -
Watching recent seasons of Peaky Blinders, perhaps that program has given Cillian more as the series and seasons have gone on, it became apparent the extent to which this man can absolutely command the screen and a scene. He's a gifted actor. Looking forward to this.
He was superb in Peaky Blinders, and got better with every season. Especially the interactions of him and Tom Hardy are breathtaking. Two of the best actors currently on the planet interacting onscreen is just delightful to watch.
Is Peaky Blinders worth watching?
@@gavinduggan199multiple times, in fact
@thechrysanthemums I'm watching it for the 5th time, never gets old to me , it's just an incredible cast and performance, and Cillian is superb, to say the least .
@@AndreinaJ I concur with everything you typed. Brilliant all around even down to the camera work and directorial efforts
if you havent watched Peaky Blinders, get your butt over there and start the binge. its so so so good.
Matt Damon comes across as a sound skin. Fair play to him.
Love Matt and Cillian !!!! both are amazing actors!!
I love hearing other actors talk about cillian 💛
He’s the number 1 actor in the world right now for me
Definitely up there, this film from what I’m hearing is one of the best performances of all time from Murphy and if that’s the case that’s amazing and inspiring that he can get to that level from growing up in the same city as me
Bro come on.
Where's the actor league table?😂😂😂
There is no number one.
Cillian is a wonderful actor.
But
Denzel, al pachino, Robert downey jr., Daniel day Lewis, Anthony Hopkins, Christian Bale, Morgan freeman,Tom Hanks, Robert de niro, Leonardo etc. all are worthy.
@@faisalshawon1207 that’s why I said “for me”
"This Ryan better be worth it. He better go home and invent a longer lasting light bulb or something" - Captain Miller from Saving Private Ryan

Thomas Shelby thoroughly deserves an Oscar nod for his portrayal of Oppenheimer.
I love Damon.
Calling Murphy: Best Actor Oscar, Robert Downey Jr: Best Supporting Actor Oscar
My favourite actor ATM by far
Damon made a great General Groves himself! My congratulations to his performance. Loved Matt as well. Great role.
Cillian Murphy is phenomenal and Matt Damon is literally just Matt Damon in a General costume.
"Filum" is the gem here.
Saw the movie last night ..Awsome
In reference to Matt's comment, "I started out as a private and now I'm a general.", Cillian has gone from being a potential victim of a major virus that could affect all mankind ("28 Days Later") to being complicit in a project (Manhattan Project) that could potentially make victims of all mankind (“Oppenheimer”)….
Saw it today….Very good movie….Robert Downey Jr absolutely smashed it too.
I'm not Irish and I think Cillian was amazing in this!
Leaving aside many, way too many comments (staying away from the "comment" section is basic common sense, yet here I am contributing), Cillian Murphy is great as the title character, so is Robert Downey Jr in a supporting role.
Both went the "method acting" way to some extent. Both delivered.
Matt Damon was quite good also.
Matt Damon is an absolutely brilliant actor and writer is a total genius in his own way. Really cool to see him so successful and great at his craft.
@@davidp5492 Team America agree.
@davidp5492 How you like them apples?
Never seen a bad performancr. Superb in WindvThat Shakes The Barley
What amazes me about a role like that, one that is in every scene, is how an actor can maintain his consistency throughout. Felt the same about Daniel Day-Lewis in Lincoln. BTW - whose shirt is Matt Damon wearing?
Matt Dammmmmmon!
Is performance in ‘Team America’ is as brilliant as it is unappreciated and almost forgotten.
i agree with Matt Damon that he could be happy he is playing in this movie -)
I worked on a film with Cillian in 2009 called "Peacock." If you aren't familiar with it, do rent it. His performance is staggering!
What was your work?
I'm Serbian and I think that he is great!!
Great interview
I’m off to see it on imax this coming Tuesday evening . Worth the late finish I think .
Never actually watched Cillians peeky blinders so didn't watch much of his works but over time grew to admire him and his talents
Only thing i knew of the guy was the part he played in Quiet place 2 Still, looking forward to see Oppenhiemer
Cillian was the lead role in a great sci-fi film that takes places in space called Sunshine. It also incidentally has a bomb as the central part of the story. The soundtrack has my favorite piece of film music, Adagio in D Minor by John Murphy. Wonder Woman many years later took that song and used it too.
28 Days Later is one of Cillian's films that is very well liked by fans.
And he was in Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy as the Scarecrow villain.
Watch peaky blinders, the acting overall is top tier but Cillian is box office every time he's on screen
Great take Jane, I was going to reply talking about Sunshine and you took most of the words right out of my mouth. The movie is terrific and the song completely next level and so stirring I must have listened to it hundreds of times over the years and it never really gets old.
The one other highly memorable performance of Cillian's that comes to mind is Inception. He may not have been the main character, but his performance is central to a terrific picture.
I saw Oppenheimer opening night and as amazing as Cillian's performance is, even at 3 hours it's the totality of the movie that blows you away. 11 miles is the length of the IMAX 70mm film, and virtually every inch of it is riveting.
Cillian has a small supporting role in Inception but, like his costar Tom Hardy, he punches well above his weight with a performance that is at the emotional core of the movie and makes you tear up.
And yeah another great supporting performance in Nolan's 2017 movie Dunkirk as a traumatized soldier in WWII. Recommend that too!
For smaller films where he's the lead, check out Where the Wind Shakes the Barley, beautiful Ken Loach movie about Irish independence and civil war history.
@@roadrollerdio565 Watched him in Dunkirk. Have to agree he played that role perfectly as well as Tom Hardy's performance as the spitfire pilot. Both actors i hold in very high regard. Another actor i really respect is Gary Oldman. While he's best known for being an A lister Hollywood star, I think his best performance by far, for me personally that is, is Darkest Hour.
Needs the mic checked but great interview
Pure class
first saw him in 28 days later what a performance
WHERE ARE ALL THE SETS FROM CHRISTOPHER NOLAN'S FILMS? This would be the coolest attraction in the world! Imagine: riding on the Endurance spacecraft or the Interstellar planes, visiting Cooper's house, hanging in the Tesseract like the main character, driving the Batmobile and having a drink in its cave, walking through the spinning room in Inception, strolling through the town of Oppenheimer. Just imagine. Where is all of this?
CGI. It's just pixels.
@@Johnconno It's literally not.
No it's not. Nolan does not use much cgi
Matt is always such good sports
Love your work Matt too :)
Actors are so deep 😅
This movie is like an amazing coke rush!!!
His thin to begin with, but in this movie he's looking extra thin, like something is eating him up from the inside. Oppenheimer had that same look, it happens a lot to people who are internally conflicted..
Robert Downey Jr was great in this.
He will win 2023 Oscar. I
He definitely should. I can see Joaquin for Napoleone and Leo for Killers of the Flower Moon also getting nominated but Cillian definitely deserves to take home the trophy.
And RDJr for best supporting.
@@larskarlsson1959 RDJ definitely needs to be nominated but I have to see everything else coming out this year to give him the win. But as of now he's the front runner.
an epic movie
Imagine telling an actor "You're job is to deliver one liners in this epic."
Amazing film
Has Cillian ever performed at the Abbey Theater? I love the history of that historical playhouse.
I can't wait to see this Christopher Knowles movie.
Daemon 🎉❤
Hollywood will fawn and slobber all over the JRO story since he was a “fellow traveler”
Matt is really embracing the "dad bod" look
why would he not promote it, he is an actor.

In the wake of the UFO crash that followed the Trinity test, I believe, that General Leslie "Dick" Groves was tasked with the back engineering of Alien technology.
With, Roswell 1947, this became urgent and he left the US Army, and went to work for the Sperry Rand corporation, in 1948.
Yes saying private Ryan. Omagh beach was filmed in Welford
Omagh, huh?
Omaha Beach, Omagh is a town in Northern Ireland
@@martinscanlon5473 sorry yes typo
Ballinesker Beach in Co. Wexford.
Jesus Christ... that's Jason Bourne!
RDJ did the best acting job in this film.
RDJ lives the craft, he comes across as laid back and jokey but is absolutely awesome
Nice guy
Matt took a pay cut to do the film. Only got $4 million. Let's have a whip round
He’s an actor. Can an actor be phenomenal? I’m really asking.
sound is off
I just realized who will play the G Man from Half-life if they ever make it into a movie
Guys the audio is terrible, what happened?
Great job, Matt. One of the 'least comfortable' great movies I've ever viewed. Probably bears noting this movie's intent was clearly the antithesis of 'comfortable' - as it should be. Any meditation on the immolation of tens of thousands of men, women and children is, at best, difficult. And the fact that the use of these monstrosities likely saved thousands of US soldier's lives (by obviating the need for a full-scale invasion of the Japanese homeland) feels a bit like the most extreme form of damning with faint praise. For sure, I'm grateful many American lives were saved - no question. Simultaneously the image (not part of this movie, thankfully) of Japanese children, who survived the immediate detonations, trying to slake their intense thirst caused by the intense heat and radiation of the blasts by opening their mouths to the highly radioactive particulate-caused rain drops that fell, virtually guaranteeing their deaths by radioactivity poisoning, is painful to the mind and soul of any even marginally thoughtful person. And the tired refrain of "Yeah, but the Japanese started it" misses the point entirely. I keep wondering when the grownups will come back... Oh, and yes, Cillian Murphy's (along with the rest of the cast's) performance was just short of staggering. "Bravice", Mr. Nolan.
Great post, thank you.
what is wrong with the sound? edit: and what is wrong with the camera switching? Is this like a big star interviewed on a beginners level channel?
👍 Pvt to Gen
Wow is that Matt? He sure looks different these days.
They are pushing for oscars on every forum
Personally, don’t think too highly of Matt Damon. I don’t think politics belong in Hollywood. Now, I do agree with him about Cillian Murphy. There just seems to be an authentic and freeing vibe that he gives off.
Great movie, wish they chilled it with the score /music , like i just wanted to let the dialog really sink in, the music was a bit distracting but I assume it had to be some studio decision because maybe they thought people would find those scenes boring? Wasnt needed.
Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should.
!!
I find it sycophantic and weird that they spend all their time marveling at Cillian Murphey and not oppenheimer himself.
So strange now to see Damon as the middle aged man he is...
I wonder if he knows he can ask questions that aren’t related to Ireland. I’m Irish and live in Dublin, but it’s embarrassing to see that when an Irish media company get time with a world class actor, the best they can come up with is a load of questions about Ireland. It makes us look like a small hick inward looking village
another add
Did anyone hear Cillian’s clear Cork accent throughout the whole movie though?
I mean the acting was great but then it got me confused in the middle of the movie bc at one point I genuinely thought Oppenheimer might be an Irish person and Cillian was portraying that 😅
audio is horrible on this video
Í
James Woods was an exec producer? You've got to be kidding me. I won't support any Trumpers in Hollywood. What were Nolan and Damon thinking?
In this film, does Cillian Murphy's accent wander around the world as egregiously as it does in everything else he does?
using nukes was one of the worst actions aimed against humanity
Well perhaps Japan should have surrendered then.
well it worked didnt it, enjoy that freedom your so desperately complaining about how it was given
You know how you sound like? Like you agree with annihilation of entire city full of civilians to gain advantage. Beside Japan was already loosing and close to surrender.
I wonder if you agree also with annihilation of Moscow or Kiev to end their conflict.
@@MrSudzio well they were close to surrender but we solidified it. then had to double check and make sure they surrendered. maybe just dont team with nazi's
@@jhill17 are you American?
Thoroughly engrossing film, wouldn’t say enjoyable, because of the uncomfortable truth.
Unfortunately, Cillian is the wrong gender and colour for the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences
How many people lost how much money they couldn't afford to lose, thanks to Matt and his endorsement of crypto scams?
