Robert Oppenheimer and his participation in the Manhattan Project, where it was developed the first atomic bombdirector Christopher Nolan will premiere his film next Thursday, July 20 oppenheimer which is qualified, by those who have already had the opportunity to see it, almost like a horror movie.

Of cillian murphy as the protagonist, Nolan wants to think about the paradox of the man who risked destroying the world to save it.

Between 1942 and 1946, the United States felt pressure to fight the Nazis, who they believed were already well ahead of them in technology and weapons.. Under this feeling, Nolan’s story is built in its own form of countdown, increasing the tension and anticipation of his audience minute by minute.. However, much of the film’s intensity will focus on the war within Oppenheimer himself, who came to reflect on the fact that he had become the death and destroyer of the world.

Emily Bot stars as Oppenheimer’s wife, biologist and botanist Katherine “Kitty” Oppenheimer. While Matt Damon becomes General Leslie Groves Jr., director of the Manhattan Project and, Robert Downey Jr. (already completely removed from the Marvel Cinematic Universe), he becomes Lewis Strauss, Founding Commissioner of the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission.

With the aim of providing its audience with an immersive experience, the director shot the scenes with IMAX cameras and was surprised to discover that at the same time it is a very intimate format when it comes to connecting the audience with emotions of the main character

“When audiences see this in IMAX, they are experiencing an extraordinary moment in human history.”, confirms Nolan, who also he decided to mix color with black and white during the film and the result, he said, is magical and inspiring.

Nolan decided to bet on real locations and, In mid-2022, he shot scenes in Los Alamos (New Mexico), the place where the laboratory and mini-city for the development of the atomic bomb were installed.. The production team used the original Manhattan Project locations, including the Fuller Lodge (where the scientists ate) and the house that was Oppenheimer’s home.

The municipality has already made plans for this capitalize on the publicity the premiere of the film will bring and attract investment for various potential development focuses, in addition to tourism.

“My opinion on oppenheimer is that many people know his name, and they know that he was involved in the atomic bomb, and they know that something else happened that was complicated in relation to the history of the United States. But nothing more specific than that,” Nolan said in a recent interview with Wired. “And honestly, to me, that’s the ideal audience member for my movie. People who don’t know anything about him are going to have the wildest ride. Because it’s a wild story.”

“Like it or not, J. Robert Oppenheimer is the most important person who ever lived. He made the world we live in, for better or for worse.” also stated the director of Dunkirk at the Cinemacon held in Las Vegas this year. “It’s entertainment on a grand scale and that was always my ambition for the film.”
