Irish actor Cillian Murphy was so eager to land the lead role in the upcoming movie Red Eye, he flew all the way from London to Los Angeles for a half-hour meeting with director Wes Craven.

Just two days before he exchanged nuptials with YVONNE McGUINNESS, the screen star read the script while he made the longhaul journey to the Californian city, met with Craven at Los Angeles International Airport's Encounter restaurant for half an hour then literally got straight back onto another flight home.

Craven notes, "If someone comes 5,000 miles to meet on a role, you know he's really dedicated."
