In a big win, director Christopher Nolan bagged the Best Director award for his biopic drama film Oppenheimer at the Critics Choice Award 2024.

Having previously starred in Inception, Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, The Dark Knight Rises, and Dunkirk, Murphy has been a mainstay in many of Nolan's movies.
