Christopher Nolan: Last News

Christopher Nolan has named a surprising Will Ferrell moving as being one of his favourite comedies of all time.The Oppenheimer director was speaking on the Rich Eisen Show and was asked to give his choice for a ‘remote drop’, one that you will immediately watch if you ever see it’s being shown on television.“I didn’t know ‘remote drop’ as a phrase, but that’s a good one,” Nolan responded. “I love it.”Moving on to his choices, he added: “There are so many.

Entertainment Weekly reported.Oldman, 65, previously appeared in the Nolan-helmed “Dark Knight” trilogy. He is also known for his Oscar-winning portrayal of Winston Churchill in the 2017 film “Darkest Hour” and Sirius Black in the “Harry Potter” films.The Englishman’s presence in the hotly anticipated summer blockbuster was kept under wraps — Oldman did not walk the film’s red carpet when it premiered on July 11.

summer blockbuster “Oppenheimer” is surely not bombing at the box office, but there is one scene in the movie that isn’t hitting the right target.One moment in the three-hour film starring Cillian Murphy shows a historical error that viewers pointed out on Twitter.In the shot, the Irish actor, 47, stands in the middle of a crowd, who all clap and cheer for him while they wave American flags.The dramatic epic about the life of nuclear physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer takes place in the early 1940s, but the flags featured white stars that represent 50 states — despite the country only having 48 in 1945 when the scene took place.Hawaii and Alaska, the last two entities to be annexed to the United States, were not added until 1959.Eagle-eyed fan Andy Craig revealed the mistake on social media, sharing a snapshot of the scene, and his post quickly went viral.“It was good and all, but I’ll be that guy and complain they used 50-star flags in a scene set in 1945,” he tweeted.Other fans agreed with his discovery and even called out Nolan, 52, for the incorrect usage.“Totally ruined the film for me,” a person claimed.

took to Instagram on Monday to praise the new “Barbie” movie — six years after exiting the project herself.“Really enjoyed Barbie and Oppenheimer but I think I should have played Emily Blunts role,” Schumer jokingly captioned a photo of herself wearing sunglasses and a large, unflattering sun hat. “Do better Hollywood.”Schumer, 42, appeared to be referencing Blunt’s role as atomic bomb creator Oppenheimer’s wife, Katherine “Kitty” Oppenheimer, in the new Christopher Nolan-directed film.

Can the fans expect a Christopher Nolan – James Bond movie? Well, Nolan would love that.

After months of filming, the cast and crew of both Barbie and Oppenheimer celebrated each other with thoughtful — and funny — gifts. 

Elsa Keslassy International Correspondent While Greta Gerwig’s girl-power blockbuster “Barbie” is ruling over the French box office, another much younger female-led franchise, “Miraculous: Ladybug & Cat Noir” has managed to pull approximately €8 million ($8.9 million) at the local B.O., from more than 1.1 million tickets, since bowing on July 5. Budgeted around $80 million and directed by Jeremy Zag, “Miraculous: Ladybug & Cat Noir” ranks as one of France’s most ambitious animated films to date. Featuring eight original songs, a queer storyline and a postcard-worthy Parisian backdrop, the musical film broke ground as the first female-powered superhero movie set in the French capital. Even as it faces stiff competition from “Barbie” and Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer,” “Miraculous: Ladybug & Cat Noir” has enough legs to match or surpass recent non-U.S. animated hits such as “Ballerina,” which sold 1.8 million tickets in France. It garnered 318,144 admissions on its opening day in theaters, a record for a French animated film. In Germany, the movie sold 586,148 tickets in three weeks and is currently the leading family title at the box office.

Amy Schumer has offered her thoughts on Warner Bros’ Barbie years after exiting a different version of the film at Sony, also joking about the role in Uni’s Oppenheimer that she should have played, after finding herself among the many taking in the ‘Barbenheimer’ double feature over the weekend.

AMC Entertainment set a new post-Covid record for global admissions revenue this past weekend with Barbie and Oppenheimer leading a charge that drew 7.8 million moviegoers to theaters.

In “Barbie,” Margot Robbie’s titular plastic doll ventures from Barbie Land to the real world to fix a gap in the space-time continuum that has caused her to have flat feet, intrusive thoughts of death and, even worse, cellulite. But while Barbie roller skates her way to the truth, Ryan Gosling’s Ken is experiencing an arguably even more spiritual journey, in which he learns of a utopian way of life called the patriarchy, in which Kens rule the world — or, at least, are respected enough to be asked what time it is. But Ken’s most critical moment of realization comes in his final scene, after crying on Barbie’s shoulder and coming to terms with the fact that, actually, it is enough to dedicate one’s life to “beaching.” He is “Kenough.”

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Cillian Murphy is earning some of the best reviews of his career for leading Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer, but no praise might be higher than this rave from co-star Robert Downey Jr.: “I have never witnessed a greater sacrifice by a lead actor in my career,” the “Iron Man” star told People magazine about Murphy’s performance as J. Robert Oppenheimer. “He knew it was going to be a behemoth ask when Chris called him,” Downey Jr. added. “But I think he also had the humility that is required to survive playing a role like this. We’d be like, ‘Hey, we got a three-day weekend. Maybe we’ll go antiquing in Santa Fe. What are you going to do?’ ‘Oh, I have to learn 30,000 words of Dutch. Have a nice time.’ But that’s the nature of the ask.”

Those ticket sales rank as the biggest opening weekend of the year — besting “The Super Mario Bros. Movie” ($146 million). It also stands as the biggest debut ever for a film directed by a woman, overtaking Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck’s 2019 blockbuster “Captain Marvel” ($153 million).
