Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer will feature “prolonged full nudity” by actors Florence Pugh and Cillian Murphy, a new report has claimed.
Murphy stars as nuclear scientist J Robert Oppenheimer in the film, which is released this month, with a significant subplot involving his relationship with psychiatrist and physician Jean Tatlock, played by Pugh.
Speaking to The Guardian, Murphy said he was under “strict instruction” not to discuss any of the film’s plot specifics, but did disclose details on the film’s chemistry tests between him, Pugh and Emily Blunt, who portrays Oppenheimer’s wife Kitty.
“They put two actors in a room to see if there’s any spark, and have all the producers and director at a table watching,” he recalled. “I don’t know what metric they use, and it seems so outrageously silly, but sometimes you get a chemistry and nobody knows why
The report also added that Murphy and Pugh have scenes of “prolonged full nudity” together, and that it makes Oppenheimer one of Nolan’s rare films to include a significant interest in sex and relationships.
