Live Poll: Favorite J. Robert Oppenheimer

Dr. Julius Robert Oppenheimer (04/22/1904 – 02/18/1967) was an American theoretical physicist and director of the Los Alamos Laboratory during World War II. He is often credited as the "father of the atomic bomb" for his role in organizing the Manhattan Project, the research and development undertaking that created the first nuclear weapons.

Over the years, many actors have played this famous character in various movies and TV series.

From this list, who do you think is the actor who played him perfectly?

@GabrielFox ,

My tentative vote: Sam Waterston

However, Oppenheimer will not be in wide release in theaters until Friday 21-July-2023. From what I've seen of Cillian Murphy's performance, I will likely change my vote to him after seeing the film.

It's probably wise to wait at least a week after the wide release of Oppenheimer for this poll to go live to get a more accurate response.

Given the impact the film is having, it is unlikely anyone will be a contender agaisnt Cillian Murphy.

Why are you using the actor/name list instead of either a title list or (better yet), an image list with the image of the character from their respective movie image gallery?

Answering to your questions:
The idea is to see the face of the actor who played the character.
Many of these movies don't have pictures of the actors playing the characters.

@GabrielFox​ Many of them are far removed (agewide) from their Oppenheimer role. That your point will be moot. At that point, it's better to go to a title list.

The intention of this poll is to vote for the actor who best played this famous character, this survey is not referring to the best movie about this character.
For people to vote on this topic they have to see the actor's face, not the movie poster.

@GabrielFox​ Except the photos you're using are 40+ years removed for several of the actors and their respective Oppenheimer roles. And your point is moot when one of the actors is missing a profile pic.

At this point, it's best to use a title list.

The goofy irony in your argument? I went to two of your options where the actor is missing their profile photo and where where the literal image of the Oppenheimer/actor is literally used in the gallery (and they're literarily not the project's posters).

Thanks for mentioning that there are no images of 2 actors. When I did this poll I forgot that I had to omit them for that reason.
They have already been deleted and now all the actors with an image are in this poll.

Could you at least add links for the movie/TV titles, instead of bolded text?
