Ireland shines at BAFTA 2024 with multiple wins across several categories, securing recognition for Irish creative talent at the UK’s biggest awards show. Cork actor Cillian Murphy received the best actor award for OPPENHEIMER, having faced competition in the category from Dublin actor Barry Keoghan for his role as Oliver Quick in SALTBURN. Yorgos Lanthimos’s offbeat film POOR THINGS is produced by Dublin-based Element Pictures. Its nominations included a cinematography nod for Irish cinematographer Robbie Ryan, though OPPENHEIMER won in that category.
