I wanted to share my observations regarding the cast, with some obvious ones. Nothing special, just wanted to point these out to anyone interested:

Florence Pugh as Jean Tatlock



Benny Safdie as Edward Teller (or Teller Ede, as we Hungarians would say...)



Kenneth Branagh aaaas... I would bet some money that he is playing Niels Bohr, a well-respected scientist at the time of the story, as much respected by the community as Einstein, or even more at the time. (Some saw Einstein as a bit of a looney, according to the biography. Funnily enough, I think the shot of Einstein's hat getting comically blown off by the wind hints at that sort of aspect.)



Josh Hartnett playing Ernest Lawrence. Supposedly not a big fan of Oppenheimer towards the end of the story.




That is supposedly Finnish actor Olli Haaskivi playing who-knows-who. And, as pointed out before, Rami Malek on the right in the bottom picture.



That is Trond Fausa Aurvåg as George Kistiakowsky on the left (I hope I'm not wrong about the actor!) and Christopher Denham as Klaus Fuchs on the right. Talking about the latter figure might be a bit spoilerish, so I'll avoid that now.



A small glimpse at Dane DeHaan as some sort of assistant to Matt Damon's Leslie Groves.



Will Roberts as General George C. Marshall, I presume.



First look(?) at Matthew Modine as Vannevar Bush. I'm sure the gentleman sitting next to him is also pretty important, but I can't seem to find the actor among the confirmed cast members.



Jack Quaid on the left, and I have a very strong feeling that he is playing young Richard Feynman. And Gustaf Skarsgård as Hans Bethe on the right.

As someone who finds it somewhat difficult to recognize actors in brief shots, thanks, this is very helpful!

And someone mentioned elsewhere that DeHaan could potentially be playing Ken Nichols, which I think makes a lot of sense.

Great work. What about that guy that tells Oppenheimer "you can't do this in your head"?
