When you hear the name of the super director Christopher Nolan, you will know that another big production is coming. This time, it is no exception. This morning, a sudden release of a still photo revealed that Nolan will welcome his first work after joining Universal Pictures, titled “Oppenheimer”.
Earlier it was revealed that Christopher Nolan will leave Warner Bros., his collaborator for nearly 20 years, and join the Universal Pictures family, with his first project being another major production. From the stills, it is clear that the new film titled “Oppenheimer” will definitely feature Cillian Murphy, and according to Radar Online’s report, the production team has already built a massive early 20th-century small town for the new film, showcasing rural-style buildings, classic cars, abundant rolling grass, and the BUTTERFLY CLUB.
In terms of filming, it is reported that the crew officially started shooting today. After Christopher Nolan switched to a new film company, he continued to adhere to his preference for real-life settings and traditional film production techniques, using specifications such as IMAX 65mm, 65mm film, and IMAX black and white simulated film for shooting.
In terms of content, this new film will be a personal historical biography movie, telling the story of “father of the atomic bomb” theoretical physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer (played by Cillian Murphy) and his process of creating the atomic bomb. The story is based on the 2006 Pulitzer Prize-winning biography book “American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer”. It is worth noting that today’s release of Cillian Murphy’s character look in the film is even based on the cover of the 2005 version of the aforementioned book, interpreting J. Robert Oppenheimer’s classic portrait.
Finally, of course, the cast of actors who participated cannot be missed. In addition to the already announced Cillian Murphy, “Oppenheimer” will feature Robert Downey Jr., Matt Damon, Emily Blunt, Florence Pugh, Rami Malek, Benny Safe, Josh Hartnett, Dane DeHaan, Jack Quaid, David Krumholtz, and others, and is scheduled to be officially released on July 21, 2023. Fans of Nolan, do not miss it.
