Peaky Blinders is one of the most popular shows there ever was. And according to fans, no one else could pull the character of Tommy Shelby off the way Cillian Murphy did. So, when Tommy didn’t get the recognition he deserved when Emmy nominations were declared, the fans got mad. But now their hopes are up as Cillian is working with this brilliant director.

Fans root for Cillian Murphy to get an Oscar for this role!

Cillian Murphy is undoubtedly a brilliant actor. And the director he’s going to work with is a British-American director, producer, and screenwriter, Christopher Nolan. Christopher is working on a biographical movie, Oppenheimer. Cillian is the lead actor in the movie portraying J. Robert Oppenheimer. Oppenheimer was an American theoretical physicist and professor of physics at the University of California, Berkeley. He’s the “father of the atomic bomb”.

The movie is based on a book named American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer, a biography of J. Robert Oppenheimer written by Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherwin. Cillian will star along with Robert Downey Jr., Matt Damon, and Emily Blunt as well. Not much is revealed about the movie except for the release date.

The movie will premier on July 21, 2023, by Universal Pictures in IMAX. Now that this fan-favorite actor is working with the Iron Man and the incredible director, fans have high hopes for Cillian getting an Oscar and getting the appreciation that he truly deserves.

This is how fans are reacting

Nolan and Murphy will work together for the 6th time. People know how much Cillian respects Nolan. He would always turn up for Christopher no matter how big or small the part was. This is how Murphy reacted.

So, what about his fans? Well, fans are going crazy and they cannot stay calm.

These fans are desperately rooting for Cillian to get an Oscar now! “We’re officially entering his Oscar-era,” said @CMurphyfans.
