Let's make this simple: You want to know if there are any post or mid-credits scenes in Oppenheimer. The answer is there are not. Christopher Nolan's latest movie has no scenes after the credits start rolling.
Christopher Nolan is known for creating high-concept blockbusters that merge action and science fiction, but his latest film is firmly rooted in real historical events. Oppenheimer dramatizes the life and work of Robert Oppenheimer (played by Cillian Murphy), the father of the atomic bomb.
On Friday, we're going to start unpacking Nolan's latest movie and how it depicts such an important piece of American history, so be sure to check back then.
Does Oppenheimer Have a Post-Credits Scene?
As noted above, Oppenheimer doesn't have any scenes after the credits start rolling. This definitely isn't surprising, given that this is a historical drama rather than an action-packed blockbuster. Not to mention the fact that post-credits scenes have never really been Nolan's style, even when he directed the Dark Knight trilogy. And with a runtime clocking in at three hours, Oppenheimer already has plenty of room to tell its story.
