The Dark Knight Trilogy star and Academy Award winner Gary Oldman revealed he will also be in Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer.

Filming on Christopher Nolan’s latest picture is already underway, but the news is still coming out on the massive talent the filmmaker is assembling for Oppenheimer. Gary Oldman recently appeared on the UK radio station TalkSport and revealed that he will film “one scene, a page and a half” for Oppenheimer next month.

Gary Oldman previously worked with Nolan on The Dark Knight Trilogy as James Gordon. Oppenheimer will also feature other alums from the Batman trilogy such as Scarecrow actor Cillian Murphy in the lead role, David Distmalchian, and Matthew Modine.

The Oppenheimer cast also includes major names such as Robert Downey Jr. as Lewis Strauss, Matt Damon as Leslie Groves Jr., Emily Blunt as Kitty Oppenheimer, Florence Pugh, Rami Malek, Benny Safdie, Josh Hartnett, Dane DeHaan, Jack Quaid, Alden Ehrenreich, David Krumholtz, Kenneth Branagh, Jason Clarke, Josh Peck, and Matthias Schweighofer.

Here’s the synopsis for the director’s last film, Tenet:

Armed with only one word—Tenet—and fighting for the survival of the entire world, the Protagonist journeys through a twilight world of international espionage on a mission that will unfold in something beyond real time. Not time travel. Inversion.

Written and directed by Christopher Nolan, Tenet stars John David Washington, Robert Pattinson, Elizabeth Debicki, Dimple Kapadia, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Clémence Poésy, Michael Caine, Kenneth Branagh, and Himesh Patel. Christopher Nolan also serves as a producer alongside his wife Emma Thomas, with Thomas Hayslip as an executive producer.

Tenet is available on Blu-Ray, DVD, and Digital Download, while Oppenheimer will hit theaters on July 21, 2023.
