Oppenheimer stars Cillian Murphy as theoretical physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer, who is credited as the “father of the atomic bomb” for his role in the Manhattan Project. The film also stars Emily Blunt, Robert Downey Jr., Matt Damon, Florence Pugh and Josh Hartnett.

Since it was first released in cinemas in July, Oppenheimer has become the third highest-grossing movie of the year so far, behind Barbie and The Super Mario Bros. Movie.

The film’s latest IMAX run comes ahead of its home release on November 22, with Blu-ray and DVD copies set to come with over three hours of special features.

In a five-star review, NME wrote: “Not just the definitive account of the man behind the atom bomb, Oppenheimer is a monumental achievement in grown-up filmmaking.”
