Nolan’s Interstellar is his longest current film at 169 minutes. Oppenheimer is said to be closer to 180 minutes, which is three hours long. I guess we shouldn’t be surprised by the kind of story this film will tell. The film is said to last 45 years as it tells the story of the atomic bomb.
Speaking previously of the film, Nolan teased the film’s enormous scope by saying, “It’s a story of immense scope and scale. And one of the most challenging projects I’ve ever undertaken in terms of scope, and in terms of meeting the breadth of Oppenheimer’s story. There were big logistical challenges, big practical challenges. But I had an amazing crew, and they really stepped up. It’ll be a while before we’re done. But certainly as I watch the results come in And as I’m putting the film together, I’m thrilled with what my team has been able to achieve.”
The film is the protagonist Cillian Murphy as J. Robert Oppenheimer, the scientist who ran the Manhattan Project that led to the creation of the atomic bomb during World War II. The film has been described as an “epic thriller that thrusts audiences into the heart-pounding paradox of the enigmatic man who must risk destroying the world to save it.”
Murphy is joined in the film by Emilia Blunt as biologist and botanist Kitty Oppenheimer; Robert Downey Jr. as founding commissioner of the US Atomic Energy Commission Lewis Strauss; Matt Damon as Manhattan Project director Leslie Groves Jr.; Florence Pug as psychiatrist Jean Tatlock; Benny Safdie as theoretical physicist Edward Teller; AND Josh Hartnett as pioneered by American nuclear scientist Ernest Lawrence. The film is also the protagonist Rami Malek, Gary Oldmann, Michael Angarano, Olivia Thirlby, Dane DeHaan, Jack Quaid, Matthew Modine, Alden Ehrenreich, Jason Clarke, David Krumholtz, Kenneth Branagh, AND David Dastmalchian.
Oppenheimer will be released in theaters on July 21, 2023.
