“Harry Styles is great”, says Cillian Murphy on 1D star’s new Christopher Nolan movie role

Zayn’s released new music already, of course. And Liam’s signed to Capitol. Louis is running a label and managing a new girl group. Niall’s gone into golf. And Harry? Well, he’s supposed to be working on new music too. Though he’s decided to give being a Hollywood film star a go first. And his co-star in the new Christopher Nolan film ‘Dunkirk’ says he’s right good at it.
Speaking to The Radio Times, Cillian Murphy says: “Harry Styles is great. I had very few scenes with Harry but we got to hang out and I’ve got to say he’s a great, great kid, and really, really funny”.
Yeah, but come on. Harry Styles? “Above all, Chris Nolan knows talent and would have cast Harry for a reason”, he continues. “There’s a long history of musicians moving over into acting and I come from that world myself, so I’m sure he’ll be terrific in the role. I trust Chris implicitly in that”.
So he actually ended up not being quite so certain there, didn’t he? With his “well, surely Nolan knows what he’s doing” conclusion. The film’s not due out until June 2017, but we’ll see then, I guess. Here’s a trailer for it which will tells you no more:
