Director Christopher Nolan’s upcoming biopic Oppenheimer continues to add names to its already stacked cast as Variety is reporting that Drake & Josh star Josh Peck has joined the film.

In the film, Peck will play Kenneth Bainbridge. His character was a “real scientist who was involved in the Manhattan Project, the codename for America’s effort to develop nuclear weapons during the second world war.”

Peck joins a cast that includes Nolan regular Cillian Murphy (Peaky Blinders), as well as Emily Blunt (A Quiet Place Part II), Matt Damon (Stillwater), Robert Downey Jr. (Avengers: Endgame), Florence Pugh (Black Widow), Rami Malek (No Time to Die), Benny Safdie (Licorice Pizza), Dane DeHaan (Lisey’s Story), Jack Quaid (The Boys), Matthew Modine (Stranger Things), David Dastmalchian (The Suicide Squad, Dune), Louise Lombard (After We Collided), and Jason Clarke (The Devil All The Time).
