The first teaser for Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer will debut exclusively in theaters.<\/p>\n

The upcoming biopic stars Cillian Murphy as J. Robert Oppenheimer, the theoretical physicist who is often credited as the \u201cfather of the atomic bomb\u201d.<\/p>\n

The brief teaser will be attached to Jordan Peele’s new sci-fi horror flick, Nope \u2013 a move that makes more sense when you consider that both are distributed by Universal Pictures.<\/p>\n

Nolan’s last film, Tenet, also pushed its first teaser trailer as a theatrical exclusive, attached to the Fast & Furious spin-off film, Hobbs and Shaw. Tenet’s first trailer was subsequently never released online. It’s thought that Oppenheimer will follow this pattern.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe world is changing, reforming,\u201d says Emily Blunt as Oppenheimer’s wife, Katherine, according to Variety. \u201cThis is your moment.\u201d A countdown timer then begins: \u201c11 months, 24 days, 15 hours, 29 minutes.\u201d<\/p>\n

It’s presumably a countdown to the day \u201cthe world changes forever\u201d \u2013 the launch of the first-ever nuclear weapon by the United States at 5:29 am on July 16, 1945. Code name Trinity, this test was of an implosion-design nuclear device, nicknamed \u201cThe Gadget\u201d\u2026 the same design as the Fat Man that was eventually detonated over Nagasaki on August 9, 1945.<\/p>\n

As the film’s title appears on screen, Lewis Strauss (Robert Downey Jr.) can be heard saying: \u201cThe man who moved the Earth\u201d which is presumably a reference to Oppenheimer himself. Oppenheimer (Cillian Murphy) is then seen on screen, briefly, as footage of fire and smoke are intercut between black and white footage of the man himself.<\/p>\n
