Cillian Murphy (1976 - )
Film Deaths[]
- The Trench (1999) [Pte. Rag Rookwood]: Blown to pieces off-screen along with Michael Moreland and Ciarán McMenamin, when part of their trench is bombed by German artillery. His body parts are later seen scattered all over the trench, when Paul Nicholls discovers them.
- Disco Pigs (2001) [Pig/Darren]: Suffocated by Elaine Cassidy.
- 28 Days Later (2002) [Jim]: Goes into cardiac arrest after first being shot in the chest by Christopher Eccleston, and then suffering further injuries in a car crash. He is resuscitated in the theatrical release, but dies in the alternate ending included in the US DVD.
- Cold Mountain (2003) [Bardolph]: Shot in the back by Natalie Portman, after Jude Law tells Cillian to run.
- Red Eye (2005) [Jackson Rippner]: Presumably dies after being shot in the chest by Brian Cox, on top of having been stabbed in the throat with a pen by Rachel McAdams, earlier on. We don't actually see him die, but his fate is heavily implied.
- The Wind That Shakes the Barley (2006) [Damien O'Donovan]: Executed by a firing squad.
- Sunshine (2007) [Robert Capa]: Incinerated, along with Rose Byrne and Mark Strong, when the ship is engulfed by the sun in the process of re-igniting it.
- Inception (2010) [Robert Fischer Jr.]: In one dream world, he is shot to death by Marion Cotillard. In another, he falls to his death after being pushed from a tall building by Elliot Page. (He survives the film in reality.)
- In Time (2011) [Timekeeper Raymond Leon]: Dies when his allotted time runs out, after he misses his chance to "recharge" during a confrontation with Amanda Seyfried and Justin Timberlake.
- Retreat (2011) [Martin]: Shot in the head by Thandie Newton with a shotgun, as a mercy killing, after he contracts the deadly virus accidentally given to him by Jamie Bell.
- In the Heart of the Sea (2015) [Matthew Joy]: Dies off-screen from an infection of a wound on his head. His death is confirmed when Brendan Gleeson tells Ben Whishaw that Cillian died on Henderson Island, while Paul Anderson, Luca Tosi, and Nick Tabone who were left behind with Cillian, were later rescued. (Historically inaccurate, as the real Matthew Joy died in the lifeboat of the whale ship Essex, after leaving Henderson Island.)
- Anthropoid (2016) [Josef Gabcík]: Commits suicide by shooting himself in the head, rather than be taken as a prisoner by the Germans.
- Free Fire (2016) [Chris]: Accidentally shot in the chest by Brie Larson, on top of being shot multiple times. He dies shortly after talking to Brie.
