During a recent exclusive interview with Entertainment Weekly, acclaimed director Christopher Nolan told a delightful anecdote related to the production of his highly anticipated film Oppenheimer. It seems that the talented Emily Blunt gave Nolan a very special gift at the end of filming in an attempt to get revenge. These are ugg boots!
But what is behind this unusual gesture? Apparently, during breaks in filming, Emily often wore these comfortable shoes, avoiding the misery of the 1940s period shoes she wore for the character. Nolan, who did not like ugg boots, often joked with her about this. And so, Emily decided to “turn” the director into a cult of comfortable ugg slippers, giving him a pair as a sweet revenge! An episode that added a touch of humor behind the scenes of this epic filmmaking.
