A new book on the making of Oppenheimer reveals why Christopher Nolan couldn’t film the Trinity test sequence at the real bomb site as he had hoped.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Christopher Nolan originally wanted to film parts of Oppenheimer at the real Trinity test location, and a new book reveals why he had to abandon these plans. Based on American Prometheus by Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherwin, Nolan's historical drama hit theaters this past July, earning rave reviews from audiences and critics alike.
"That was wild, being out at Trinity. Chris and I were taken directly to the place where the bomb was dropped. We walked in and picked up trinitite. I was like, 'How much radiation am I being exposed to?' Our guide was like, 'You get more radiation flying in an airplane back and forth to L.A. than you do standing here.'
Why Oppenheimer's Trinity Sequence Was So Effective Early marketing for Oppenheimer teased the historical drama as being somewhat non-traditional, with trailers hyping the film's intensity with an almost horror-movie-like sense of dread. While parts of Nolan's film certainly do adhere to the more traditional biographical drama structure and presentation, the Trinity test sequence in the film proves that the trailers were right to tease the movie as a thriller-esque experience.
