Emily Blunt On Playing The Character Of Kitty In Oppenheimer
Christopher Nolan’s magnum opus project Oppenheimer not only had a compelling story but also a star-studded cast. Prominent faces from Hollywood like Josh Hartnett, Matt Damon, Robert Downey Jr, Tom Conti, and Emily Blunt enamored the biographical epic. Emily Blunt played the character of Kitty Oppenheimer, wife of the reputed theoretical physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer. During an interview with a media outlet, the English actor spoke about the different layers of the character of Kitty Oppenheimer. She pointed out-
“There was something flighty and wild and nonconformist about her. It was a time when contortions were happening to women, as they tried to kind of mold themselves into perfect housewives.”
She further added-
“But Kitty was a terrible mother and she wasn’t a very good housewife – and had no desire to be one. She was pretty ruthless in so many ways. She worshipped Robert, but also really called him on all his shit. Perhaps some people are just allergic to weakness? And don’t label Kitty an alcoholic: surviving on cigarettes and martinis at Los Alamos was understandable. Plus, Robert’s genius got him a free pass denied to his wife. His gender, too? Yes, I think so. I wonder what the world would feel if it was Kitty Oppenheimer who created this bomb.”
The 40-year-old actor sets the screen on fire with her dialogue and fiery screen presence. The character of confident and feisty Kitty Oppenheimer has been perfectly embodied by Emily Blunt.
Oppenheimer is currently running in the theatres.
