In «Inception,» Murphy portrayed Robert Fischer, a character whose mind is the target of a complex heist involving dream manipulation. He also impressed audiences with his role as Jim in the post-apocalyptic horror film «28 Days Later,» where he navigates a city overrun by zombies. Murphy's comedic side shines through in «The Party,» a film that offers a satirical commentary on politics and the upper class.
