Oppenheimer lead actor Cillian Murphy is the most talked about male movie star of 2023, thanks to his enigmatic portrayal of scientist J Robert Oppenheimer. The Christopher Nolan directorial has garnered millions at the box office worldwide, coming second only to Greta Gerwig’s Barbie movie. Like any blockbuster movie, fans are expecting some deleted scenes and behind-the-scenes footage of Oppenheimer that has never been seen before. Blu-Ray and DVD collectors would also want some exclusive featurettes and deleted edits. However, Cillian Murphy has come clean, revealing that there are absolutely no deleted scenes in Oppenheimer. In an interview with Collider, Cillian Murphy said that the team of Oppenheimer may not be releasing any deleted scenes, because there aren’t any. The actor explained that Christopher Nolan usually has a firm script and knows exactly how his films are to be presented. Hence, there is no unused footage for his films. «There’s no deleted scenes in Chris Nolan movies,” said Cillian Murphy. „That’s why there are no DVD extras on his movies because the script is the movie.“ Cillian Murphy went on to reveal that Oppenheimer was planned and executed to the T, and nothing was edited. The Peaky Blinders star had only six months to prepare for the titular role, but every detail had been chalked out before the filming of Oppenheimer. Oppenheimer was shot on IMAX and provides a beautiful cinematic experience. Except maybe in The Dark Knight trilogy, Christopher Nolan's movies do not have unused films. However, some footage may be there in behind-the-scenes videos.

Is Oppenheimer a true story? Oppenheimer, the film is based on the true story of US scientist and theoretical physicist J Robert Oppenheimer.
