Self-effacing Irish actor Cillian Murphy is having to get used to red carpet glitz and acceptance speeches.

The 47-year-old Cork native won his first Oscar on March 11 on his first nomination for his leading role in Christopher Nolan's "Oppenheimer," capping a glittering awards season that saw him snare a Golden Globe, a BAFTA and other prizes.

The Oscar nominations revealed today held few surprises. As expected "Oppenheimer" and "Barbie" were nominated for Best Picture. For others, it might be disappointing that Greta Gerwig is not among the nominated directors.
