At the Golden Globe Awards, Christopher Nolan's directorial venture, 'Oppenheimer,' is making waves, with lead actor Cillian Murphy seizing the trophy for Best Actor in a Drama. Murphy's portrayal of J.

In a tough category, Murphy triumphed over stellar performances by Bradley Cooper in 'Maestro,' Leonardo DiCaprio in 'Killers of the Flower Moon,' Colman Domingo in 'Rustin,' Andrew Scott in 'All of Us Strangers,' and Barry Keoghan in 'Saltburn.'
The official Golden Globe Awards handle celebrated Murphy's win with a congratulatory tweet: "Congratulations to Cillian Murphy in Oppenheimer on your WIN for Best Male Actor – Motion Picture – Drama! #GoldenGlobes."
