Upon leaving University, Murphy joined the Corcadorca Theater Company in Cork, and played the lead role in "Disco Pigs", amongst other plays.Various film roles followed, including a film adaptation of Deep Obession (2001). However, his big film break came when he was cast in Danny Boyle's 28 dagar senare (2002), which became a surprise international hit.

Although slight in nature for a villain, Murphy's piercing blue eyes helped to create creepy performances and critics began to take notice.
