Christopher Nolan revealed who his favorite actor is and surprised everyone

With a rich career in the world of cinema, Nolan revealed who he liked working with the most in recent years and who he considers the best actor.

One of the most important directors today is Christopher Nolan whose word has become an oracle for the young actors and directors who look to their work when they need a source of inspiration. With a large group of performers who have collaborated with him throughout his extensive filmography, he was surprised by his choice when referring to his favorite actor.

“I always knew, since I met him (no matter how many years have passed, almost 20), that Cillian Murphy He is one of the great actors, not only of his generation, but of all time“, he expressed.

The Irishman began his career in 1997 but it was only in 2023 that he had the opportunity to demonstrate all his talent to the general public that Hollywood had eluded him until now and that only recognized him for his work in the series Peaky Blinders or his supporting roles in films such as 28 Days Later, Inception, Batman Begins and Dunkirk. It was Christopher Nolan himself who gave him that opportunity he was looking for and what gave him his first Oscar.

“I’ve been waiting for the project, and I know he has too, where we can collaborate with him as a leader. I could put the biggest weight on his shoulders and watch him carry that load. It was a great experience to be able to call Cillian and say, ‘It’s this one,'” said the director about Oppenheimer and what this project meant to both of them.

It should be noted that another of the director’s favorite performers is Robert Downey Jr., with whom he also worked on the film that broke all records. “We all know that she is one of the great movie stars... It’s very easy to forget that he is also one of the greatest actors of all time.”he opined.
