Oppenheimer Trailer Takes Viewers to the Heart of the Atomic Bomb

According to a Hollywood Reporter source, Christopher Nolan’s much awaited biographical drama “Oppenheimer” debuted a new trailer that offers a more in-depth look at the plot and characters. The trailer debuted at CinemaCon before being screened in theatres just before Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.”

The film focuses on J. Robert Oppenheimer’s (Cillian Murphy) efforts to put together a group of scientists, under the direction of General Leslie Groves Jr. (Matt Damon), in a race against Nazi Germany to harness the destructive power of nuclear energy. The story takes place during the development of the first atomic bomb during World War II.

The movie describes a pivotal moment in history when Openheimer, the “father of the atomic bomb,” opted to test the bomb despite knowing that doing so could ignite the atmosphere and wipe out humanity. Nolan remarked at CinemaCon, “When I learned about that narrative, I wanted to be there in that room with them and see what that must have been like. The audience was somewhere I wanted to take them. I’ve put together the most amazing cast and the best technicians to accomplish this.

With Emily Blunt as Katherine “Kitty” Oppenheimer, Florence Pugh portraying psychiatrist Jean Tatlock, Benny Safdie playing theoretical physicist Edward Teller, Michael Angarano playing Robert Serber, and Josh Hartnett playing nuclear scientist Ernest Lawrence, the film has an impressive ensemble cast. In addition to Matthew Modine, the movie also stars Rami Malek, Kenneth Branagh, Dane DeHaan, Dylan Arnold, David Krumholtz, Alden Ehrenreich, and Matthew DeHaan.

Nolan’s latest film, which he also wrote and directed, is his first since “Tenet” in 2020. The novel “American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer” by Kai Bird and the late Martin J. Sherwin served as inspiration for it. The movie will debut on July 21 thanks to Universal.

New footage of the physicist team developing the weapon was shown at Nolan’s presentation at CinemaCon, but the movie also anticipates the moment when Russia develops its atomic technology, raising espionage concerns at Los Alamos. According to Nolan, the protagonist of the movie made choices that still have an impact today.

“Oppenheimer” is one of the most ambitious summer releases from a major studio in recent memory since it deals with serious subjects and a technological advancement that changed the path of history.
