Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer has been creating a lot of hype among the cinema-lovers, and it’s just a few days of wait before we get to see one of the biggest histories on the big screen. The movie is based on the life of theoretical physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer and the creation of the atomic bomb that changed the power dynamics across nations. There had been confusion regarding the budget of the film, but now the director finally gave a number for it, and it’s almost equal to any CGI-heavy film, despite Nolan’s zero use of effects in it.
Nolan is known for his complicated yet gripping storytelling, and with this film, he had already mentioned that there had been no CGI in it to create the explosion, and it would be a whole new experience for the audience. After several films, Cillian Murphy, one of Christopher’s favourites, gets to play a lead in his film along with actors like Emily Blunt, Robert Downey Jr, and Matt Damon to give him all the support he needs.
Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer is 3 hours long, almost as long as Marvel’s Avengers: Endgame, the director even compared that while walking the red carpet for the film’s premiere. As per Collider, Nolan said, “The runtime is two minutes shorter than ‘Avengers: Endgame,’ so we cling to that. I said to [producer] Emma Thomas very early on that it’s going to be a three-hour film. I have to write a script that reflects that. That was our conversation with the studio.”
