James Woods Advised to Downplay Role in Oppenheimer

James Woods revealed that he was advised to keep his executive producer role in the film 'Oppenheimer' quiet due to concerns over his pro-Donald Trump Twitter account potentially harming the film's success. Speaking to Megyn Kelly, Woods expressed that while the suggestion was painful, he chose to remain 'invisible' to avoid any negative impact on the movie's reception and awards potential. Despite his significant contribution, he was not invited to key industry events like the Producers Guild Awards. Woods emphasized his pragmatic approach, prioritizing the film's success over personal recognition. 'Oppenheimer' went on to achieve substantial box office success and multiple awards, including Best Picture at the Oscars.
