The only English version is 19th-century and made from a Syriac version. HOLLIS Primo 'any,contains,Payne Smith "Commentary upon the Gospel according to S. Luke"' returns a single 1859 record, Oxford: The University Press, whose note reads 'by S. Cyril; now first translated into English from an ancient Syriac version by R. Payne Smith': https://hollis.harvard.edu/discovery/search?query=any,contains,Payne%20Smith%20%22Commentary%20upon%20the%20Gospel%20according%20to%20S.%20Luke%22&tab=Everything&search_scope=MyInst_and_CI&vid=01HVD_INST:HVD2&offset=0 The modern reprint is recorded at HOLLIS as 'Commentary on the Gospel of St. Luke' (Studion Publishers, c1983, 620 pp., English), found by the search https://hollis.harvard.edu/discovery/search?query=any,contains,%22Commentary%20on%20Luke%22%20Cyril&tab=Everything&search_scope=MyInst_and_CI&vid=01HVD_INST:HVD2&offset=0 which also returns the 1853 Louvain Latin/Greek part-edition and a 1973 Stockholm study of new manuscript sources. No 20th- or 21st-century translation appears in HOLLIS, and no Fathers of the Church, Ancient Christian Writers or Popular Patristics volume of Cyril on Luke was located (the FC Cyril volumes are the Twelve Prophets, John is in IVP's Ancient Christian Texts, and Glaphyra, the Festal Letters and Three Christological Treatises are other works; see 'Cyril of Alexandria "Twelve Prophets" Hill' and 'Cyril of Alexandria "Commentary on John" Elowsky').
Recorded as a gap of the 'older translation only' kind rather than a work with no English at all: status is 'full' because a complete English rendering exists, but it is a Victorian translation made from a Syriac version, with no modern critical translation and no separate translation of the Greek catena fragments. The Greek text itself survives only in catena fragments, which is why the 1859 Syriac-based rendering has never been superseded.
