What If Oppenheimer Was Made In Bollywood? This AI-Generated Cast Of Nolan¡¯s Film Is Unmissable
As Oppenheimer releases across the world, here is an AI-generated carousel of which Indian actors will play the film's iconic characters.
Oppenheimer is ruling the hearts and minds of people ever since its release. Starring Cillian Murphy playing the lead, this Christopher Nolan directorial is currently running in theatres alongside Greta Gerwig¡¯s Barbie. Where on the Indian box office Oppenheimer is ruling, in global space Barbie has taken the lead.
In this world of AI-generated content, one creator has re-imagined ¡®What if Oppenheimer was made in Bollywood?¡¯ and it's too accurate.
The carousel imagines Shah Rukh Khan as J Robert Oppenheimer and sees Naseeruddin Shah as Albert Einstein. Actress Alia Bhatt is imagined as Jean Tatlock and Lewis Straus can be played by Anupam Kher. Anushka Sharma is Kitty Oppenheimer, Aamir Khan is Leslie Groves and Rajkummar Rao is David Hill.
Here¡¯s a carousel created by an Instagram user named @wild.trance who captioned the post, ¡°Unfathomable Fusion: The Oppenheimer Project" with an Indian star cast under Christopher Nolan's direction would be a cinematic masterpiece, showcasing the brilliance of both Oppenheimer's scientific mind and the talents of the Indian film industry.¡±
This is after a long time that Robert Downey Jr who is popular as Iron Man/Tony Stark in the Marvel Cinematic Universe has stepped out to do something different.
Affirming his contribution, director Christopher recently told a media portal, ¡°One of the best casting choices in film history, in my opinion, was when [Jon] Favreau had the vision to cast him as Iron Man. And you examine what happened and the direction that everything took as a result. And I believe Jon knew exactly how amazing of an actor and how amazing of a promise Downey had.¡±
¡°Then the allure of a movie star, that amazing magnetism, enters the picture.¡±
Nolan further added, "It was that you could go to him and say, 'Okay, set your charisma and movie star fantasies aside for a moment and let yourself become engrossed in this real-life character who is so nuanced and has such an amazing role to play in Oppenheimer's story.¡±
¡°And I think a lot of his fan base is going to be quite shocked to see him sort of revert to that genius as an actor, just finding the truth in another human being and expressing it, and the things he accomplishes in the movie. Being able to flip fully and expand oneself in a way that many people haven't seen someone who has achieved such greatness as a movie star does is pretty cool.¡±
