This is very encouraging and exciting to hear. Others have also commented on how wonderful the script isradewart wrote: ↑March 12th, 2022, 11:07 pmhttps://variety.com/2022/film/news/donn ... 235203028/
When Christopher Nolan was shopping for a studio for “Oppenheimer,” his look at the creation of the atomic bomb, Donna Langley sprang into action. The Universal Filmed Entertainment Group chairman believes that Nolan, along with Steven Spielberg and Jordan Peele, is one of the few filmmakers whose name above the title demands that audience will pay attention. In an age of streaming and superheroes, that kind of branding has become a rare and valuable thing.
“He makes films that are undeniably theatrical,” Langley said of Nolan during a panel discussion at SXSW on Saturday. “We really focus and strive to create an environment for filmmakers where they can do their best work and minimize the friction and noise, and complement their film with an excellent distribution and marketing campaign.” Plus, “the script [for ‘Oppenheimer’] is phenomenal.”

I don’t know. I mean, isn’t it coming from sources who would usually say stuff like that for marketing purposes in a way? I believe in Nolan but I always take those types of comments lightly because of the aforementioned aspect.The Special One wrote: ↑March 13th, 2022, 1:54 amThis is very encouraging and exciting to hear.

That's just his quirk at this point, less known actor surrounded by some big actors surrounded by smaller ones. I would have like to see an A lister in lead not even sure it will ever happen. Particularly, would love to watch an A lister actress in the central role in an action-thriller.

Cillian definitely deserved his leading role in a Nolan film, and he’s had A listers lead multiple films of hisblackColumn wrote: ↑March 25th, 2022, 11:49 pmThat's just his quirk at this point, less known actor surrounded by some big actors surrounded by smaller ones.

That's true. Al Pacino, Christian Bale (who became more of an A lister because of his role as Batman in those films), Hugh Jackman, Leo Dicaprio, Matthew Mcconaughey, all fit into the A list category. The other half are Guy Pearce, John David Washington and Fionn Whitehead (though honestly he's not what I'd call the lead of that film, just of his section. Tom Glynn-Carney and Tom Hardy are the leads of their sections imo). So Cillian is kind of in-between. I wouldn't call Cillian an A lister, he's more of a supporting actor. But even if he's not who you'd first think of in regard to casting a leading role, that will just give him the chance to show to people that he's totally capable.KEM wrote: ↑March 26th, 2022, 2:09 amCillian definitely deserved his leading role in a Nolan film, and he’s had A listers lead multiple films of hisblackColumn wrote: ↑March 25th, 2022, 11:49 pmThat's just his quirk at this point, less known actor surrounded by some big actors surrounded by smaller ones.

He absolutely did. One on one, it won't make any sense to criticise castings. It is the pattern that says something.KEM wrote: ↑March 26th, 2022, 2:09 amCillian definitely deserved his leading role in a Nolan film, and he’s had A listers lead multiple films of hisblackColumn wrote: ↑March 25th, 2022, 11:49 pmThat's just his quirk at this point, less known actor surrounded by some big actors surrounded by smaller ones.
