- We're in a race against the Nazis.
00:01
- Allegedly, the man survived
00:03
on just martinis and cigarettes.
00:04
So what kind of diet did Killian have
00:07
in order to achieve that?
00:09
- Less.
00:09
(laughing)
00:10
- Even less.
00:12
- I stayed off the martinis.
00:13
- Right before we started shooting,
00:14
I saw this photograph that Chris had said,
00:16
"Yeah, I think Killian's got it."
00:18
And I looked and I was like, "That's Oppenheimer."
00:20
And then I was like, "Damn it,
00:21
I better get my ass together now."
00:23
- What's the nature of the device they detonated?
00:25
- Data indicates it may have been
00:27
a plutonium implosion device.
00:29
- Like the one you built at Los Alamos.
00:32
- Robert's character, Louis Strauss,
00:34
was the commissioner of the Atomic Energy Commission
00:37
and had a rocky relationship with Killian's Oppenheimer.
00:40
- It's very interesting, the relationship.
00:41
It's very, very complex.
00:43
And they kind of dance around each other all the time.
00:46
And that was the pleasure of working with Robert.
00:48
I remember I said to you,
00:49
it felt at times a bit like kind of jazz
00:51
when we were just acting up.
00:53
It was kind of, it was buzzy.
00:55
There was this kind of vibrations.
00:57
- The world will remember this day.
01:00
- So Oppenheimer, obviously very conflicted
01:03
about his notoriety and for obvious reasons.
01:06
But when it comes to you, when it comes to Killian Murphy,
01:09
are you ready to embrace the accolades
01:11
that are coming your way?
01:13
The Oscar buzz? - That was gonna be
01:13
my question. - All, see?
01:16
- No, no, no, no, no.
01:17
No, I don't think about that.
01:18
You know, I was just so happy to make the movie,
01:20
to be acting with all these incredible actors.
01:22
The script was genuinely one of the best scripts
01:24
I'd ever read in my life.
01:26
- You were meant to play this character, dude.
01:28
And I'm sorry, but your life is gonna change a little bit.
01:31
- Thank you.
