Documentary/Biopic Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer

Christopher Nolan’s Next Movie About Robert Oppenheimer and atom bomb – Deadline

Hmm, guess the one word title? I suppose Atomic is a bit too obvious.

 

[Pennywise]

Details are a bit scant at the moment on casting, but I’m hearing talk that Cillian Murphy might be involved. He collaborated with Nolan on two of The Dark Knightfilms, Inception as well as Dunkirk, and is in the mix. The project has the sweep of Nolan’s last historical epic Dunkirk, looking at WWII from the development of the atomic bombs that ended the war with Japan. So there will clearly be many big star parts.

 

[Doctor Jones]

Nice.

 

[I Am The Knight]

Lol, Murphy was in all three Batman films directed by Nolan.

Anyway, the premise for the film is interesting.

Blondie better be on the soundtrack.

 

[Milk Tray Guy]

Blondie better be on the soundtrack.

My favourite Blondie track!

 

[Pennywise]

Maybe they should play this song in the film!

​

 

[Boom]

Great idea for a movie, and it'd be a killer role for Murphy if he is in fact up for the lead.

Looks like the Nolan/WB relationship is at an end.

Hmm, guess the one word title? I suppose Atomic is a bit too obvious.

If it isn't titled "I Am Become Death," why bother?

 

[Pennywise]

Wonder which studio could get it?

Amazon
Netflix
Universal
Paramount
Sony
MGM
Apple

 

[Gothamsknight]

Sounds fantastic. I'm in! As if that was a surprise haha.

Now the question is where will he sign

 

[I Am The Knight]

Wonder which studio could get it?

Amazon
Netflix
Universal
Paramount
Sony
MGM
Apple

Which one doesn't have a streaming service?

 

[Pennywise]

Netflix might be out.

Christopher Nolan won't make Netflix films unless they can be distributed globally

Looks like the Nolan/WB relationship is at an end.

Or, knowing how desperate they likely are to remain in the Nolan business, he’s setting up meetings around town so WB scrambles to give him carte blanche to do literally anything he wants to with this.

Like someone I follow on Twitter said, they did literally everything he wanted with Tenet and the thing he’s mad at them for is the same kind of **** all the other major studios are doing rn.

I mean, what’s he gonna do, hold a grudge against WB for their day-and-date move while overlooking Universal making a day-and-date move this very day?

 

[Boom]

Amazon could be interesting if they'd guarantee him a theatrical window.

That'd be a get for them.

That would work!

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

If it isn't titled "I Am Become Death," why bother?

...

...


"SHIVA".

 

[Boom]

Call it "Destroyer of Worlds" or there is no point.

 

[Pennywise]

Going to be a hell of a bidding war to the rights of the film!

 

[Detective Conan]

I’m sad that it seems that Chris Nolan’s relationship with Warners is over. They’ve had such a long and fruitful relationship with each other and he made many of his best movies at that studio. Oh well. It is what it is.

 

[BobJM]

Hmm, guess the one word title? I suppose Atomic is a bit too obvious.

I would think Oppenheimer if we’re going one word.

 

[Pennywise]

I really like the “Destroyer of Worlds” suggestion for the title!

 

[BobJM]

I could see Nolan going with Paramount; that’d be huge for them and Paramount+.

But maybe it’s because I want to see Nolan and Tom Cruise team together.

 

[Milk Tray Guy]

I would think Oppenheimer if we’re going one word.

Good chance, I guess. I was thinking maybe Father, as he was known as the Father of the A-bomb.
