Talking to MTV, actor Cillian Murphy praises The Dark Knight Rises director, Christopher Nolan, adding that he is very eager to see the final film of the trilogy. He does not comment on whether or not he will make a cameo appearance.

"I'm looking forward to it," the actor told MTV News at the Sundance Film Festival. "Any film that Chris Nolan makes ... he's got a good track record. He makes amazing movies." "It's been a huge honor to work with him," Murphy added. "He's just phenomenal."


On a different note, Murphy also touches on his role in the 2010 film, TRON: Legacy, and the possibility of a sequel. For those who do not know, Murphy played an extremely small role as Edward Dillinger Jr., son of Tron's Ed Dillinger Sr.

"Talk about being in a movie for a 'blink and you'll miss it' [role]," Murphy laughed when his "Tron" cameo was brought up. "I was just such a fan of the original, and they asked me if I wanted to be in it. I said, 'Absolutely. Anything you want.' "


On whether he will appear in a sequel:
"I don't know," he said. "It was just a buzz to be in that movie, even for [one scene]."

Hope that report of his being in TDKR is true, he's a great Scarecrow.
Would love to see him as the baddie in TR3N.

He's a pretty cool actor, I would like to see him play Nemesis in the live action Nemesis movie. He's been a great Scarecrow. As for the Tron, I could see him as the next villain but the problem is that they already used his character in the first movie, his Father. Which what kind of company would hire the son of the man who stole from them and nearly brought about the end of the world

It'd be fun to see him do something interesting with his Scarecrow mask in his scene like when he's passing judgement pull it off to reveal a death mask underneath

I hope he is in TDKR. The more connections to the previous movies the better.
