Revealing the entire cast will certainly not be as long as the film, which clocks in at exactly 180 minutes and 9 seconds. But Oppenheimer is one of the 2023 feature films whose distribution is particularly impressive, Asteroid City, Barbie or Asterix and Obelix: Middle Empire.
For his twelfth feature film, Christopher Nolan has indeed gathered: Cillian Murphy (for the first time in six films with the director), Emily Blunt, Robert Downey Jr., Florence Pugh, Matt Damon, Rami Malek, Kenneth Branagh, Josh Hartnett…
Let’s not forget Benny Safed, co-director of Good Time with Robert Pattinson (then seen in Tenet and who helped turn Oppenheimer into Christopher Nolan’s new film). Or an actor we don’t immediately recognize as US President Harry S. in Truman’s guise and around which there was little communication.
But it’s really Gary Oldman, working with Christopher Nolan for the fourth time, after being Commissioner Gordon in his Dark Knight trilogy. Slightly dressed up, he’s not as unrecognizable as he was in Hannibal, but it takes a few seconds to realize who he is.
Gary Oldman in the saga “The Dark Knight”.
And it’s all the more fun to watch him play the President of the United States because he recently played another, even more famous leader: British Prime Minister Winston Churchill in Joe Wright’s The Dark Hours, which won him the 2018 Oscar for Best Actor.
The ceremony, in which Christopher Nolan also participated thanks to Dunkirk, was awarded three times for eight nominations (including the best director). It was at this point that the filmmaker and actor promised to reunite one day as they competed for films set together?
