What Happened To Lewis Strauss After Oppenheimer

Lewis Strauss continued to live his life involved in politics after the events of Oppenheimer. Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer may be centered on Cillian Murphy’s J. Robert Oppenheimer, dubbed the “father of the atomic bomb.” That being said, the epic biological movie based on the 2005 biography written by Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherwin, American Prometheus, is stacked with a star-studded cast, which brings to life the story of Oppenheimer’s time working on the Manhattan Project and his conflicting views on his biggest legacy. Nolan’s Oppenheimer also tackles the titular character’s life beyond that, including the scrutiny of his contentious relationship with Strauss.
