The cast of 'Oppenheimer' wore daring looks before walking out of the film's world premiere amid the SAG-AFTRA strike
- The cast of "Oppenheimer" walked out of its premiere on Thursday over the SAG-AFTRA strike.
- But before they left, they posed on the red carpet in a number of daring looks.
The cast of Oppenheimer walked out of the film's world premiere after SAG-AFTRA called a strike.
Christopher Nolan's "Oppenheimer" premiered in London on Thursday, with the stars of the film in attendance to promote the film.
But after walking the red carpet, the cast left the event to support the SAG-AFTRA strike, as Christopher Nolan announced on the premiere stage, according to Deadline.
SAG-AFTRA called for the strike on Thursday after its national board of directors voted unanimously to approve it, as The Los Angeles Times reported, joining the writers' strike that has been underway since May 2.
But before they left, members of the cast walked the red carpet in some eye-catching ensembles, like Emily Blunt.
Blunt, who plays J. Robert Oppenheimer's wife Kitty in the film, walked the red carpet in a black, sparkly dress from Alexander McQueen.
The gown's padded shoulders flowed into a cutout, asymmetrical neckline that exposed Blunt's stomach.
A pattern of white embroidery swooped across the side of the gown, and the skirt flowed into fringes of fabric that moved and showed her legs as she walked.
Matt Damon took a playful approach to the red carpet with a more laid-back ensemble.
Damon's black suit and coordinating vest looked simple at first glance, but he paired the traditional look with a T-shirt and no tie, giving it a modern edge.
The actor plays Leslie Groves, a general, in the film.
Cillian Murphy wore a daring top on the "Oppenheimer" red carpet.
Murphy paired an open jacket with high-waisted pants and a see-through, black top from Saint Laurent, an unexpected addition to the all-black look.
He plays the titular character in Nolan's film.
Florence Pugh's dress featured daring cutouts.
Pugh, who plays Oppenheimer's student and lover Jean Tatlock, often wears daring looks on red carpets, and the "Oppenheimer" premiere was no exception.
The halter neckline of the actor's burnt-orange, Valentino gown dipped all the way to her navel, meeting the form-fitting bodice in a point. Two cutouts framed the sides, and the dropped-waist skirt flowed out around her.
The back of Pugh's gown was open.
Only a thin strap of fabric kept Pugh's dress together in the back.
The open back drew the eye to the gown's skirt, which flowed into a dramatic train.
Rami Malek's all-black ensemble stood out on the red carpet, too.
Malek, who plays nuclear physicist David Hill in the film, attended the premiere in a black top and pants.
The shirt was buttoned to the neck with no tie and he wore no jacket, creating an effortless and sophisticated look.
And Josh Hartnett wore his retro-style top unbuttoned at the top.
Hartnett's steel-gray suit consisted of an oversized jacket and flared pants that gave the outfit a '70s feel. He paired it with a pale-blue top that had an oversized collar, and he left the top halfway unbuttoned.
He plays physicist Ernest Lawrence in Nolan's film.
