In a recent interview with The New York Times, renowned filmmaker Christopher Nolan shared his aspiration to delve into the untold story of Oppenheimer, recognizing its dramatic and significant potential. However, an unexpected twist arises as it appears that Sam Levinson, the creative force behind Euphoria, may have unintentionally explored similar thematic terrain.
A peculiar connection has emerged, catching the attention of fans who noticed striking parallels between Oppenheimer and Euphoria. In Oppenheimer, Lewis Strauss, portrayed by Robert Downey Jr., faces rejection from Albert Einstein in a manner strangely mirroring Cassie, played by Sydney Sweeney in Euphoria, being spurned by her love interest, Nate Jacobs, portrayed by Jacob Elordi.
The narrative symmetry doesn't stop there. Both characters undergo a psychological unraveling, descending into chaos and ultimately shattering their lives due to the perceived rejection they experience. Compellingly, these moments are depicted cinematically in a similar style, adding an intriguing layer to the connection.
This discovery has ignited a buzz on social media platforms, particularly Twitter, where merged images of Downey and Sweeney circulate, accompanied by speculation that they might be each other's "Tethered," a playful reference to Jordan Peele's film Us. The internet's penchant for creativity extends to an Olivia Rodrigo fancam, a whimsical celebration of this newfound cinematic link.
