Oppenheimer is Cillian Murphy's 🐲f♊irst lead role in a Christopher Nolan movie

Christopher Nolan left a note on Cillian Murphy's Oppenheimer script – and 🌠it's the sweetest thing you'll see all day.
The note, written on the cover page of Murphy's script reads: "Dearest Cillian - Finally, a chance to see you lead… Love, Chris." The script is also printed o꧃n red paper with the t♛ext in black ink so it can't be photocopied ().
Nolan and Murphy had previously worked together on Batman Begins and Dunkirk, with Murphy in supporting roles. Oppenheimer marks Murphy's first lead role in a Nolan mo𝓀vi𝐆e – and hopefully the first of many.
Murphy auditioned for the lead in Batman Begins, with 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:his audition going viral once again around the time of Oppenheimer's release. Despite knowing that the role would go to Chr🐻istian Bale, Nolan "wanted to get [Murphy] on film," because of🎃 the "electric atmosphere" around his performance.

"He's so understated and self-deprecating and, in his very English manner, just said, 'Listen, I've written this script, it's about Oppenheimer. I'd like you to be my Oppenheimer,'" Murphy said (H/T ). "It was a great day… We have this long-standing understanding and♛ trust and shorthand and respect. It felt like the right time to take on a bigger responsibility. And it just so happened that it was a 💖huge one."
