Michael Caine Joked to Christopher Nolan That ‘Enough Is Enough’ Before Sitting ‘Oppenheimer’ Out; ‘I Had to Go Off on My Own,’ Nolan Says
Michael Caine joked with Christopher Nolan that "enough is enough" before not starring in "Oppenheimer."
Nolan, who many awards pundits agree is the BAFTA and Oscar frontrunner for best director and best picture thanks to “Oppenheimer,” remembered Caine joking to him about not being able to star in the atomic bomb epic. Caine has appeared in eight Christopher Nolan movies, starting with 2005’s “Batman Begins” in the role of Bruce Wayne’s butler and patriarchal figure Alfred Pennyworth. Caine reprised that role in the sequels “The Dark Knight” and “The Dark Knight Rises,” and also had supporting roles in “The Prestige,” “Inception,” “Interstellar,” “Dunkirk” and “Tenet.” It appears “Tenet” might just be Caine’s last Nolan movie as the actor floated his retirement from the profession during interviews last year.
