Loach on Murphy + is a Hollywood romantic comedy up next?

Apparently, Cillian Murphy's admiration for legendary director Ken Loach is a mutual thing. David Germain of The Canadian Press quotes Loach on Cillian:

He was terrific, he was magnificent, and I wouldn't say this in front of him because it's embarrassing, but he's man of great integrity and humility in the best sense. I think his integrity is transparent. You can see it in his eyes. He does what he believes in.

The article goes on to raise our hopes that Cillian is making further strides toward leading man status—and that he will shoot another film in the near future! Germain reports that Cillian "hopes to shoot a romantic comedy in New York City soon." Perhaps Cillian is in negotiations? And once more Cillian affirms his selectivity about projects alongside his good sense about his career:

I also want to continue to work in Hollywood, too. It's just choosing the right ones, because Hollywood makes some amazing, amazing films. For all the trash every year, there are some masterpieces coming out of there, and people who don't see that are just shortsighted.
