Josh Harnett as Ernest Lawrence in Christopher Nolan's acclaimed production: Oppenheimer.

Nobel Prize-winning physicist Ernest Lawrence was one of Oppenheimer's closest friends and, of course, a key figure in the Manhattan Project. Josh Harnett, plays the part with enough warmth and a lot of conviction. With a lot of screen time and his acting skills, Harnett makes a lot of impact as Lawrence. The character has a lot of dialogue, but his most memorable scene is the silent one where he walks away without giving testimony against his friend, Oppenheimer, at the very end of the movie.
