The release of Christopher Nolan’s film Oppenheimer is set to overcome the challenges posed by the ongoing strikes in Hollywood. Despite these obstacles, those who have had the opportunity to watch Nolan’s masterpiece are already hailing it as a remarkable achievement. However, amidst all the excitement, the name of the cast’s group chat has emerged as a true gem.
In the story of Oppenheimer, J. Robert Oppenheimer, portrayed by Cillian Murphy, takes center stage as a physicist involved in the creation of the first atomic bomb during World War II. Engaging in top-secret laboratory experiments as part of the Manhattan Project, Oppenheimer leads an international team of scientists. This historical event brought together a remarkable lineup of prominent scientists, including Enrico Fermi, Edward Teller, and Niels Bohr. Albert Einstein played a crucial role by writing a letter to Franklin Delano Roosevelt, which ultimately persuaded the president to pursue the development of this destructive weapon. However, it’s worth noting that Einstein himself did not contribute to the bomb’s creation. It comes as no surprise that the cast of Oppenheimer consists of some of the biggest stars in Hollywood.
Alongside Murphy, the film features an ensemble cast including Matt Damon, Emily Blunt, Robert Downey Jr., Florence Pugh, Bennie Safdie, Kenneth Branagh, Matthew Modine, Gary Oldman, and Josh Hartnett, among others. Yet, what’s even more extraordinary than the cast is the name of their collective group chat. According to The Hollywood Reporter, all these actors are part of a giant WhatsApp thread called “Oppenhomies.”
Reflecting on the exceptional ensemble of Oppenheimer, Downey Jr. remarked, “It was like being in the cast of Ben-Hur. Every actor had their moments, and there were no small scenes.”
Fortunately, Oppenheimer is releasing at an opportune time, narrowly avoiding any impact from the ongoing strikes by the Writers Guild of America and Screen Actors Guild. As we previously reported, stars like Murphy, Damon, and Blunt had to abruptly leave the red carpet premiere of Oppenheimer due to the commencement of the SAG strike.
