À propos de cet audio
Cillian Murphy’s week has been as eventful as ever and headlines are already calling it a turning point for the acclaimed actor. The biggest story is that Murphy has been nominated for Best Lead Performance at the upcoming 2025 British Independent Film Awards for his work in the Netflix school drama Steve, which he both starred in and produced. The nomination is being widely reported by outlets like Variety and RTÉ, reflecting not just another acting nod but his evolving biographical profile as a creative force behind the camera as well. Steve is earning critical acclaim and has climbed high on Netflix’s Top 10 streaming charts in the US, according to ScreenRant and KoiMoi, making it one of Murphy’s most visible post-Oscar roles since his win for Oppenheimer in 2023. The reviews are glowing, with critics at Vail Daily saying Murphy is phenomenal, lending emotional heft and heartbreak to the story of a beleaguered headteacher fighting for troubled boys in a broken school system.
Meanwhile, fans of Peaky Blinders got another jolt of excitement as BritishTV.com and others confirmed that a sequel series is officially in development, with Murphy returning as executive producer. There is ongoing speculation about whether Murphy will reprise his iconic role as Tommy Shelby on screen, and he was quoted by SoapCentral acknowledging that returning to the ‘Peaky’ world “is not as easy as fans might think,” suggesting that while he’s heavily involved, his on-screen participation isn’t guaranteed—at least not yet.
There’s also mounting anticipation for Murphy’s return to the post-apocalyptic genre: NileFM confirmed he will reprise his role as Jim in the upcoming 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, a sequel to the cult hit 28 Days Later, due in early 2026. This marks 23 years since the original and demonstrates Murphy’s enduring draw in major franchise fare.
On the social side, Yahoo and AOL picked up on Murphy’s rare public appearance with his wife Yvonne McGuinness at the Oscars, a rare glimpse into his famously guarded private life, gaining praise for its low-key normalcy. Social media continues buzzing over an old interview resurfacing via Comic Basics and The Guardian, where Murphy tallied up the shocking 18000 herbal cigarettes he smoked during his Peaky Blinders run, slyly pledging his next character wouldn’t be a smoker—a detail that’s become meme fodder.
All in, this week brings Murphy new honors, streaming success, major franchise returns, and a persistent mystique—solidifying his place as both a critical darling and a quietly compelling public figure whose moves still spur both headlines and hashtags.
