Oppenheimer — the , much-anticipated movie from Christopher Nolan — has dropped its first poster. The official Twitter for the film unveiled a poster, starring Cillian Murphy in the titular role, with the July 21, 2023 release date and names of the main cast : Emily Blunt, Matt Damon, Robert Downey Jr., and Florence Pugh. Distributed by Universal Pictures, Oppenheimer will recite the tale of renowned theoretical physicist, J. Robert Oppenheimer, and his role in the development of the atomic bomb during World War II. The tagline for the film says, “The World Forever Changes,” in reference to the Manhattan Project.

Oppenheimer reveals his main look — dressed in a dapper suit and tie, with a brimmed hat, as the world succumbs to flames around him. In an interview, Murphy touched upon the research work for the part, which involved “an awful lot of reading. I'm interested in the man and what (inventing the atomic bomb) does to the individual. The mechanics of it, that's not really for me. I don't have the intellectual capability to understand them,” he told The Guardian.

Written and directed by Nolan for the screen, Oppenheimer is based on Kai Bird and Martin Sherwin's Pulitzer-winning biography, ‘American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer.' As stated earlier, the book chronicles the physicist's involvement in the Manhattan Project, as he leads his team to create the most devastating weapon known to mankind.

Going by those who've seen it, the brief Oppenheimer clip begins with the dialogue, “The world is changing, reforming. This is your moment,” uttered by Emily Blunt as Katherine, Oppenheimer's wife. It then switches between visuals of engulfing flames and black and white footage of Murphy being followed around by reporters. An interesting thing to note here is the countdown at the bottom-right of the screen, which could signify the time taken for the first atomic bomb to set off.

According to IMDb, Oppenheimer will make use of both colour and monochrome film stocks in their IMAX cameras, with a Dolby Digital sound mix. Stylistically, it could be similar to his 2000 feature, ‘Memento,' where the movie cuts between present and past throughout. The film stars Gary Oldman.

This marks director Nolan's first movie at Universal Pictures, after severing a nearly two-decade-long partnership with the worst streaming service.”

“Warner Bros. had an incredible machine for getting a filmmaker's work out everywhere, both in theatres and in the home, and they are dismantling it as we speak. They don't even understand what they're losing. Their decision makes no economic sense, and even the most casual Wall Street investor can see the difference between disruption and dysfunction,” he added in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter. Soon after, Nolan and his team started looking for a Paramount, before settling for a deal with Universal Pictures.

Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer will release exclusively in cinemas on July 21, 2023.
