Cillian Murphy will perhaps be no short of a dream coming true as he puts his best self to portray J. Robert Oppenheimer in Christopher Nolan’s most anticipated movie of the decade. The last time these two talents worked together, the result was what one would call a cult classic hit. So, with Oppenheimer’s cast as enticing and the story extremely breathtaking, who would not be already seated for the movie? However, that is not all going for the movie, it would seem, as Murphy divulged more details about the film.

With only two weeks remaining in the documentary’s debut, Cillian Murphy has some important details to share about Nolan’s creation. In an exclusive interview with The Guardian, the Peaky Blinders actor revealed a little about the R-rated scenes in the movie. Although the film is based on American Prometheus, and the life of a scientist involved in the discovery of the very first nuclear weapon, it seems like it is not short of very erratic sensual innuendos.

Murphy apparently maintained Nolan’s reflections on sex and nudity. According to them, the movie will “feature prolonged full nudity for Murphy and Florence Pugh,” and even Emily Blunt. The 47-year-old Irish actor further stated the scenes “were pretty heavy” without revealing too much.

Well, it seems like it will not be only raining bombs in Hollywood after all. While star casts are all praises for their co-actor, now fans also joined in the banter. While some called it a “win-win situation” for everyone, others claimed this gives them all the more reason to be seated for the movie.

However, for some, this news ruined their plan to watch Oppenheimer with their family. And others were furious because they “wanted to see some Einstein/Oppenheimer action instead.”

Meanwhile, some claim that “they are making every attempt to win the biggest clash,” indicating the Barbie vs Oppenheimer competition due to sharing release dates.

Others say they “love Nolan,” and that they cannot wait to watch the movie in theaters, stating that they will be seated no matter what. Some also share their excitement with emojis and memes.
