Cillian Murphy is celebrating his 49th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.
Popular actor Cillian Murphy (Inception, Batman Begins, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 49th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
Murphy, a cultural icon
Born in Douglas on May 25, 1976, Cillian Murphy's career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Irish history. Murphy's not just a great actor, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Cillian hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Cillian Murphy as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 49.
Happy Birthday, Cillian, you're the best!
