Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer is touted to be one of 2023’s biggest projects. Actor Emily Blunt, who plays the key role of Katherine Oppenheimer, called the movie the biggest story of her life.
Talking about being handed the script, Blunt said, “I was nervous reading it at first, thinking, am I going to be behind physics and science? Am I going to be able to wrap my head around all of it? Then you realise, that is the backdrop. That is not the full thrust of the script. That’s not what’s so pulsating about it. It was such an emotional script to read. It’s really about the trauma of living with a brain like that, and the ramifications of what that brain brought to the world.” The film is about J Robert Oppenheimer, the theoretical physicist who helped develop the first nuclear weapons on the Manhattan Project.
