Charles Oppenheimer — the grandson of the late J. Robert Oppenheimer, whom Christopher Nolan’s new film “Oppenheimer” is centred on — has revealed one scene in the historical drama that he wouldn’t have included.

Jazz Tangcay Artisans Editor For cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema, the challenge with Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer” was about capturing what was going on inside the head of J. Robert Oppenheimer, the father of the A-bomb — what he’s thinking and what we can read in his eyes. For costume designer Ellen Mirojnick, whether it was a two-piece suit or three-piece suit, it was his silhouette.

Robert Oppenheimer in Christopher Nolan’s biopic, praised his co-star’s performance in an interview with GQ.“A lot of the scenes I have with Downey, it was quite loose and quite improvisational,” Murphy said.

Robert Downey Jr. was one of many Cillian Murphy fans impressed by his “Oppenheimer” performance.

Cillian Murphy honed his craft for nearly three decades before his Oppenheimer role made him one of Hollywood’s biggest names.

summer blockbuster “Oppenheimer” is surely not bombing at the box office, but there is one scene in the movie that isn’t hitting the right target.One moment in the three-hour film starring Cillian Murphy shows a historical error that viewers pointed out on Twitter.In the shot, the Irish actor, 47, stands in the middle of a crowd, who all clap and cheer for him while they wave American flags.The dramatic epic about the life of nuclear physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer takes place in the early 1940s, but the flags featured white stars that represent 50 states — despite the country only having 48 in 1945 when the scene took place.Hawaii and Alaska, the last two entities to be annexed to the United States, were not added until 1959.Eagle-eyed fan Andy Craig revealed the mistake on social media, sharing a snapshot of the scene, and his post quickly went viral.“It was good and all, but I’ll be that guy and complain they used 50-star flags in a scene set in 1945,” he tweeted.Other fans agreed with his discovery and even called out Nolan, 52, for the incorrect usage.“Totally ruined the film for me,” a person claimed.

Christopher Nolan and Cillian Murphy joined forces on the highly anticipated war film "Oppenheimer," and Murphy admitted he felt "pressure" collaborating with the famed British-American director. Although the two have worked together in Hollywood for more than 20 years, Murphy, 47, said he "for sure" felt an overwhelming responsibility to perform his best in Nolan’s latest film. "Pressure is good because it pushes you...

Robert Downey Sr., the younger Downey made his acting debut at age five, playing the ironic role of a sick puppy n his father’s film “Pound.” Downey Jr. found early success as an adjunct member of the Brat Pack, starring in the nihilist classic “Less Than Zero.” He earned his first Oscar nomination for his portrayal of Charlie Chaplin in the eponymous film. Downey has famously, and publicly, battled substance abuse, spending much of the 90’s and early aughts in and out of treatment centers and correctional facilities before finally getting sober in 2003 and making the unlikely leap from getting high to becoming the highest paid actor in Hollywood.

Cillian Murphy and Christopher Nolan are marking their sixth collaboration with Oppenheimer, the biographical epic about the titular complicated and brilliant physicist tasked with leading the Manhattan Project, the secret effort to create the atom bomb, and the moral and political struggles that followed. This is the first time Murphy, who plays Oppenheimer, is essaying a lead role for Nolan – “Finally!”, as he enthuses with a wink below.

Clayton Davis Senior Awards Editor “Oppenheimer” has burst into the Oscar race. With the earnest and urgent cultural fabric of “To Kill a Mockingbird” and the philosophical measure of “The Tree of Life,” writer, director and producer Christopher Nolan’s chronicle of the creation of the most destructive weapon ever used stands as the most ambitious and vital piece of filmmaking of his career. Adapted from the book “American Prometheus” by Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherwin, “Oppenheimer” tells the complicated and morally fraught story of American scientist J. Robert Oppenheimer who led the effort to develop the atomic bomb. Nolan and his stellar ensemble of actors have amassed 27 Oscar nominations collectively throughout their careers. One of those who surprisingly hasn’t nabbed one is Irish actor Cillian Murphy, who plays the titular scientist. With dry wit and womanizing charm that effectively makes him the scientific version of Michael Fassbender in “Shame,” Murphy is an effective vehicle to lead the viewer through through reams of scientific terminology. In addition, his tour-de-force performance, which is sure to be in real consideration for best actor, is best displayed when showcasing the emotional toll such a creation can have on a person. Lead actors from competitive best picture players, especially from biopics, have been consistently recognized over the past few decades in Oscar history (see Benedict Cumberbatch for “The Imitation Game” or Christian Bale for “American Hustle”). Murphy could find his time has come after decades of memorable turns in “28 Days Later” (2002) and “Breakfast on Pluto” (2006).

Jenna Ortega‘s new film is one of very few set to continue production through the Hollywood actors’ strike.The Screen Actors Guild (SAG-AFTRA) began a strike last week. The union, which represents 160,000 actors and performers, are seeking an increase in base pay and residuals in the age of streaming, along with safeguards against the unregulated use of artificial intelligence in the industry.This means that many projects in Hollywood have currently paused production, and will continue to do so until the strike ends.However, Ortega’s new film Death Of A Unicorn – an A24 production – has been given permission to restart production.The film stars Ortega and Paul Rudd as a father and daughter duo who run over a unicorn, and will see work continue due to SAG-AFTRA giving approval to the continued production of films from studios or companies not represented by the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP).The actors’ strike coincides with the Writers Guild of America (WGA) strike, which began on May 2 and halted production on a number of projects.

Matt Damon received his first "big paycheck" in Hollywood and decided not to spend it on himself. In a recent interview with his "Oppenheimer" co-stars, Emily Blunt and Cillian Murphy, Damon revealed he was able to put his mother, Nancy Carlsson-Paige, through her Ph.D. program with the $25,000 he earned for his role in the 1990 drama "Rising Son." "I bought my brother a car and I put my mom through her Ph.D.

Matt Damon vowed to his wife that he would take some time off from Hollywood with only one stipulation – if he got an offer from Christoper Nolan, he would take it. The 52-year-old actor admitted that after the promise was made to Luciana Barroso, he received a call from the esteemed director with an opportunity to join the cast of the widely anticipated "Oppenheimer," which, true to his word, he accepted. "This is going to sound made up, but it’s actually true," Damon began.

So there is actual competition.Then we just do what we always do—create great content & they can buy it, or we take it out ourselves & WE share in those sales.
