Oppenheimer

Based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning book American Prometheus, by Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherwin, Oppenheimer thrusts audiences into the pulse-pounding paradox of J. Robert Oppenheimer, the enigmatic man who risks destroying the world in order to save it. The theoretical physicist's contributions to the Manhattan Project birthed the atomic bomb that went on to devastate Japan in 1945 and end the Second World War. Christopher Nolan is the writer/ director of Following, Memento, The Prestige (with Jonathan Nolan), and Inception, as well as Batman Begins (with David S. Goyer), The Dark Knight (with Jonathan Nolan) and The Dark Knight Rises (with Jonathan Nolan).
