There are few directors these days who’s new films are genuinely considered an event, but Christopher Nolan is one of them. Oppenheimer, Nolan’s biopic of American theoretical physicist Robert Oppenheimer, the man behind the atomic bomb, has amassed an incredible cast including Cillian Murphy, Emily Blunt, Robert Downey Jr., Matt Damon, Kenneth Brannagh, David Krumholtz, Florence Pugh, Jack Quaid, Josh Harnett, Matthew Modine, Dane DeHaan and Obi-Wan Kenobi co-star Benny Safdie. News lands that Safdie is joined by another GFFA hero, the star of Solo: A Star Wars Story Alden Ehrenreich.
Nolan’s new biopic tells the story of J. Robert Oppenheimer, played by Cillian Murphy, an American theoretical physicist who historians credit as being the father of the atomic bomb. Oppenheimer’s loyalty to the United States was questioned during the Red Scare, and the physicist was subsequently put on trial. Universal has described the film as an epic thriller that “thrusts audiences into the pulse-pounding paradox of the enigmatic man who must risk destroying the world in order to save it.”
