Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer is currently filmming, and in the buildup to the first trailer later this year, I thought I'd do a video on the huge cast that the filmmaker has assembled for his latest project.
Cillian used to strike me as a Leto type of douche but I agree he needs one and is coming after it. Anyone who would stop taking work from nolan doesn't want one.
Incredible cast. I am really looking forward to see Christian Bale's performance as the Atomic Bomb. I heard he put on quite a transformation for this movie. The man's acting is peak method.
This movie looks to be one of Nolan's best, apart from having a great cast accompanying him, it's already more than enough to make the movie worthwhile.
Full cast explained, + cinematographer, composer, editor+++. Good job! Man I’m growingly excited about this movie. I hope it’ll all be in black & white IMAX.
Fun fact: The song The Radiance by Linkin Park in the album A Thousand Suns uses the J. Robert Oppenheimer quote I Am Become Death, The Destroyer Of Worlds during his speech.
Wow what a cast !! That may be the most impressive cast I’ve ever seen and obviously with this being a Nolan project I’m very interested. My problem at this early stage of things is getting excited about a movie on Oppenheimer and I don’t think I’m alone. I’m going to need a really good trailer and then I’ll be on board.
I agree with your take on the music. I think Nolan & Zimmer are the most cohesive/complementary duo in cinema & I sure hope they reunite (doubt it though), BUT I’m also freakin pumped for what Ludwig has to offer
I loved the 1980 teleplay with Sam Waterson as Oppy and I'm hopeful this new adaptation will be honest. The story is already compelling and the lives of the principals need no Hollywood embellishments.
Your narration of the coming movie is so good .Can't wait to see Cillian Murphy & the rest of the amazing cast in this great Christopher Nolan's biopic movie ..
Cannot wait for this movie ! I love Hans zimmer but Honestly after tenet I was amazed with Ludwig göransson and wanted to see another collaboration with him.
very looking forward to its release. Nolan is a great film director, mostly mesmerized and surprised by reviewing his movies every single time, its hard to feel disappointed as the picture was so interestingly directed
anythiing Nolan makes i'm watching , he is one of the very few who goes to the extreme with research to get it as close as possible to the reality.... i respect this guy a lot... i can only imagine how deep this movie will go on thing that we didn't know
Dunkirk made around 500 so that wouldnt be a bad early (very early guess). Also with it having a budget of $100 million that would be a great target to it. Still it is very early.
@@thephilosopher7173 No he was very young and actually worked on the Manhattan project. Listen to his stories from "Los Alamos From Below". About an hour long audio only video.
After recently subscribing to BritBox I watched all of Wallander for the first time. Then having watched Belfast too, I have to say, Kenneth Branagh is quite the talented man. Throw in Tenet, the Poirot movies, he’s killin it.
An amazing experience on set at UC Berkeley in scenes and seeing Mr. Nolan direct and the whole crew work. It is the most detailed movie I have ever been in.
Excited to see Michael Angarano and Dane DeHaan in this, two highly underrated actors that we don't see enough of. It seems odd to me to cast Cillian Murphy and Emily Blunt as husband and wife as they look more like brother and sister, in fact almost like fraternal twins.
Josh Hartnett is playing Ernest Lawrence. My two guesses of who Kenneth Branagh is going to play either J. Edgar Hoover or Isidor Rabi. I also think that Tony Goldwyn is playing Gordon Gray.
Somewhat relevant, apparently Eggers said he had no interest in making movies set in "modern times". Period pieces should theoretically be exempt from "criticism" due to lack of "heterogeneity".
Yes, yes and yes. It's sooo tiring to hear people complain about the so-called 'lack of diversity'...in a movie about a physicist. The thing about diversity is that it has to be done right, you can't just shoehorn into everything, and I'm saying this as a brown person. I don't care if the movie has a mostly white cast or whatever, I just wanna enjoy the movie and be hyped about its impending release. People need to chill, bro
Given the decreasing marketing window we’ve been seeing from studios since the beginning of the pandemic, I’d be surprised if we get a trailer at all this year
I so totally can't wait to see this - I mean, I am so curious to find if Oppenheimer finally creates the bomb and how that impacts him a person. Does he succeed? Does he doubt himself? Soo looking forward to this movie.
Looks like the best film of 2023. I’m so exited for this but I don’t even know about Oppenheimer lol. Luckily, I’ll have all school year to learn about him. Edit: Well, it’s about four days away. Didn’t end up learning too much about him at my school but I learned a lot online. Can’t wait, after waiting this long, it’s surreal that it’s finally coming out.
I always thought Jim Pearson of the Big Bang Theory would be a good candidate to play Oppenheimer IF he could make people forget his comedic persona from that show. That would be quite a chore, though.
I looked at the entire cast... and MAN... EVERY ONE is in this. Even Kenneth Branagh and Gary Oldham, RDJ. Damon, Florence Pugh. AND YOU CAN NEVER GO WITH CILLIAN MURPHY!!
This may be the best film Christopher Nolan made, which is a big statement after the Batman trilogy, Dunkirk, Interstellar, Tenet, and Inception. Give them the awards now, it will be a Nolan Award Show.
Can't wait to his film! Oppenheimer was a brilliant man, but I don't think that he should have agreed to the use of the Atomic bombs that he helped create. The Manhattan Project was launched at the bequest of Albert Einstein to Franklin Roosevelt when he learned that the German Nazi scientists were working on such a device and Hitler had stopped the export of uranium from Czechoslovakia and routed the uranium to his scientist's Lab. The development of the US Atomic Bombs were conceived then to be a deterrent in the event Hitler were to come into possession of them. Instead, Germany was defeated and Hitler was presumed to have committed suicide. Unfortunately, Franklin Roosevelt had also died - leaving his woefully unprepared Vice President Harry Truman to command our military forces. A number of scientists who had worked on the Manhattan Project signed a petition stating that the Project should not go forward after May 1945 - because the rationale for it was no longer applicable. General Leslie Groves felt otherwise and compelled Oppenheimer to continue the development of this incredibly dangerous Bomb, which has been a curse to Humanity ever since it was first used on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Oppenheimer could have and should have resigned his directorship as a matter of conscience. The other scientists at Las Alamos would have followed suit (with the exception of Edward Teller, who was hellbent on opening that Pandora's Box). So it goes.
I look forward to this movie. I did not know of it coming. As one who has been following the development of nuclear weapons for many decades now and Mr Nolan doing some incredible work on my favorite movie Tenet it should be great.
I've been a fan of Murphy's since "the zombie movie," he's a great emotive actor. I think that his looks get in the way of his acting, for me anyway. I have to concentrate on remembering he's playing a character. So many scenes from various movies and BBC/Netflix shows that show how talented he is.....For some reason, I would love to see him in a movie with Beniceo Del Toro. Weird.
You should try look into the Bohemian Grove. I have a feeling Nolan will incorporate it into the movie to add his own twist into things, it’s really interesting and there’s lots of crazy things he can do with it, like rituals etc.
They could have given Murphy a more accurate haircut he looks exactly the same as he does in peaky blinders but other than that, movie looks pretty good.
This must have been intended for an earlier release. There was a barrage of advertising for it last year. Also, you might want to check your pronunciation of Los Alamos against some internet references.
I love Nolan, but sometimes an artist gets the wrong ideas in his or her head, mistaking a personal project that they sometimes think everybody will be interested in seeing--and spending way too much money in the process-as well as focusing on all the wrong things; in this case a large named cast, rather than making a small, intimate film, which focuses more on style, character, technique, etc., and not developing it as a sprawling, detailed epic spending way too much money on it than the subject matter warrants. I haven’t the slightest interest in the man, the subject matter nor the obvious themes. I suppose as an artist, he needs to get this one out of his system. Most artist have one and usually do. I see the potential of a major bomb here, but I wish Nolan all the luck in the world.
i feel like nolan will have 2 timelines going on this film, before hiroshima and after hiroshima, and it'll flick between the two throughout, this is just a guess but it would fit with nolan's style to do so, like in The Prestige, Dunkirk, Memento, etc.
