Best Look Yet At Oppenheimer Debuts In FiveMinute Trailer

Christopher Nolan's next film, Oppenheimer, hits theaters at the end of the month, but you don't have to wait a minute to see new footage from the WWII drama.

Universal released the so-called "opening" of the film. The video consists of five minutes of footage from different parts of the film. So, if you are planning to watch the movie and want to see it with fresh eyes, it might be best to skip this particular video.

Edited by Oppenheimer Editor-in-Chief Jennifer Lam, the trailer offers the best look yet at the film, its story and its scope. It opens with a black-and-white scene from the 1950s in which J. Robert Oppenheimer (Cillian Murphy) interrogates Louis Strauss (Robert Downey Jr.) after World War II on behalf of the US government and drops the atomic bomb. has worked

The rest of the film is set in the 1940s, when Oppenheimer assembled a team as part of the top-secret Manhattan Project to help build the world's first atomic bomb. The team built a small town where scientists and engineers worked in secret at the Los Alamos laboratory.

The trailer also sheds light on what Oppenheimer was thinking when the bomb was created. He and the US government wanted guns to end the war, and Oppenheimer seems to have known he was treading murky waters.

"I don't know if we can trust weapons like that, but I know the Nazis can't," Oppenheimer told Murphy in the video.

Oppenheimer will show a recreation of the Trinity test, the detonation of the world's first atomic bomb in July 1945, which Nolan conducted without a computer. The following month, the United States dropped the "Fat Man" and "Little Boy" atomic bombs on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, killing tens of thousands of people, many of them civilians, and helping to end World War II.

Along with Murphy Oppenheimer and Downey Jr. Strauss as Emily Blunt Kitty Oppenheimer, Matt Damon Leslie Groves Jr. and Gary Oldman as Harry Truman. The film also stars Florence Pugh, Jack Quaid, Kenneth Branagh, Rami Malek, Alden Ehrenreich, David Dastmalkian and Casey Affleck.

Oppenheimer hits theaters on July 21, 2023, the same day as Greta Gerwig's Barbie. It is Nolan's first new film since 2020's Tenet.
