Do You Know That Cillian Murphy Earned THIS HUGE Amount For Starring In Oppenheimer And Peaky Blinders?

Although Irish actor Cillian Murphy may have produced high-calibre work before Oppenheimer, Christopher Nolan’s biographical thriller drama picture launched him into the spotlight and made him one of the most talked-about performers in the business. The compliments have been coming in from all directions for Oppenheimer. The 47-year-old actor’s earnings from Oppenheimer and his prior well-known performance as Thomas Shelby in Peaky Blinders are shown here.

How much did Cillian Murphy earn?

Cillian Murphy is said to be worth $20 million, and two of his best and most well-liked films are to blame for that. He has appeared in prestigious films including Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, Inception, The Dark Knight Rises, and Dunkirk, but his leading performances in Peaky Blinders and Oppenheimer earned him the acclaim and respect he sorely needed.

Oppenheimer

Stars that have made a name for themselves through their professional careers, such as Florence Pugh, Emily Blunt, and Robert Downey Jr., are featured in Oppenheimer. According to reports, Murphy made $10 million for his role as J. Robert Oppenheimer in the successful movie. In the meantime, he was paid for each episode of the British criminal drama series Peaky Blinders. He earned $100,000 for each episode of the six-season run of the show, which ran from 2013 to 2022.

Peaky Blinders

Both Murphy’s fees and the popularity of the programme increased. He reportedly received roughly $2 million for each episode of Peaky Blinders’ final three seasons. Murphy reportedly started demanding between $3 and $5 million for main roles and $1 million for non-leading roles after the 2005 hit Batman Begins. He has often expressed guilt over the enormous salaries actors receive in comparison to other professions.

In the past, he said to GQ, “I’m incredibly lucky. It sometimes makes me feel ashamed. Simply put, I’m an actress. Doctors, nurses, and other f**king people work in… I find that difficult. Actors get paid too much, you know? It’s good to get paid when you’re young and have money after having none, but the guilt of being a Catholic sets in right away.
