In the wake of the monumental success of the film Oppenheimer, Hollywood heavyweights Julianne Moore, Michael Douglas, and Emma Thompson, among others, have united for a groundbreaking cause: nuclear disarmament.
Inspired by the historical drama’s resonance, these A-listers have lent their voices to the Nuclear Threat Initiative’s bold initiative, dubbed Make Nukes History. Their mission? To spotlight the ongoing threat posed by nuclear weapons and champion global efforts to eradicate them.
Joining forces with Oppenheimer cast members Matthew Modine and Tony Goldwyn, along with renowned figures like Alan Cumming, Annie Lennox, and Jane Fonda, this star-studded coalition is igniting a powerful movement for change.
From high-profile billboards to captivating social media campaigns, their collective message is clear: Oppenheimer Started It, We Can End It. With a mural in West Hollywood and an art installation at The Grove’s Farmers Market, they’re ensuring their call for action reverberates far and wide.
NTI CEO Ernest J. Moniz underscores the gravity of the situation, highlighting the escalating nuclear arms race and the imperative need for decisive political action. And with Modine’s poignant documentary Downwind shedding light on the devastating consequences of nuclear testing, the urgency of their cause has never been clearer.
In a world where the stakes have never been higher, these Hollywood icons are leveraging their star power for a cause that transcends the silver screen: safeguarding our planet from the threat of nuclear annihilation.
