Oppenheimer never stops exploring the peaks. After 4 weeks of operation, Christopher Nolan’s film about the father of the atomic bomb returned $ 650 million worldwide.
If Nolan called on loyal collaborators in this feature film (Cillian Murphy, Gary Oldman, David Dastmalchian or Kenneth Branagh), he failed to offer again the services of his favorite actor, his “lucky charm”. Michael Caine. The British, accustomed to Nolanesque productions, could not participate in Oppenheimer’s adventure this time.
After working together 6 times (Batman trilogy, Interstellar, Dunkirk, Tenet), the two artists did not find themselves in the biographical project of the famous American physicist. Rest assured fans, Michael Caine and Christopher Nolan aren’t mad, it’s just a scheduling conflict.
He is with us in spirit, but not in reality. He could not join us this time.
The director confirmed this at the microphone CinemaBlend last July. “He’s with us in spirit, but not in reality. He couldn’t join us this time. But his spirit is always with us; I’ve had the most wonderful collaboration with him over the years.”Christopher Nolan said.
“But I know very few people know he’s playing in Dunkirk!”He added, recalling that Michael Caine is not physically present in the film, but vocally intervenes through Tom Hardy’s character’s radio.
Either way, Oppenheimer will continue to bomb the box office with Barbie, which has already hit the billion dollar mark. Nolan’s film should end his career not far from this fateful party. The biopic, shot in France by Cillian Murphy, has already captured more than 3 million viewers.
