The director shaved 30 days from filming so that a full scale replica of Los Alamos could be built.
The Big Picture When Cillian Murphy revealed in July that Christopher Nolan had shot Oppenheimer in less than 60 days, the news was enormously surprising, particularly when you consider the size and scale of the film, but now the film's production designer Ruth De Jong has disclosed that the film was actually meant to take substantially longer to film, as she told the Team Deakins podcast earlier this month.
"So that’s what we did, and when construction first budgeted my town it was $20 million. Chris was like, ‘Yeah, no. Stop.’ We had this huge white model and I started pulling buildings out of it, not to mention we want to shoot in New York and New Jersey and Berkley and Los Angeles and New Mexico.” “Tom, the executive producer, said, ‘Ruth, you can’t go to Berkley, you can’t do this.’ But we have to go to Berkley. That is Oppenheimer! The producers were asking what I could do on my end to shrink [the budget]. Tom then comes into my office and says, ‘Chris is going to shoot this in 55 days.’ That is a lot of money we get back! At that point you feel like I have to deliver above and beyond because he just went and gave up his days.
