Harry Groener Oppenheimer
He appeared as Sen. Gale W. McGee in the 2023 epic biographical thriller film Oppenheimer. While studying under experimental physicist Patrick Blackett in 1926, J. Robert Oppenheimer, a 22-year-old PhD student, battles with anxiety and homesickness. He enrolls at Göttingen to study theoretical physics, where he meets fellow physicists Isidor Isaac Rabi and Werner Heisenberg. Oppenheimer intends to broaden quantum physics research in the United States and will begin teaching at the University of California, Berkeley, and the California Institute of Technology. Nuclear fission is discovered in 1938, and Oppenheimer understands it has the potential to be weaponized.
In 1942, he oversees the Manhattan Project, which is motivated by the Nazis’ nuclear weapons program, to produce an atomic bomb. Oppenheimer’s attitude on nuclear weapons development is controversial, and AEC Chairman Lewis Strauss criticizes him for his public humiliation and unwillingness to engage with the Soviet Union. Strauss organizes a private meeting in 1954 to withdraw Oppenheimer’s Q clearance, harming his public image and diminishing his influence on nuclear strategy. President Lyndon B. Johnson bestows the Enrico Fermi Award to Oppenheimer in 1963.
Harry Groener Buffy the Vampire Slayer
He appeared as Mayor Wilkins and the First Evil in the American supernatural drama television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Richard Wilkins served as Mayor of Sunnydale from its inception until 1999. Wilkins was a sorcerer focused on becoming a pure demon; he had formed pacts with demons to gain immortality and power, despite his public reputation as a charming, conservative, and lovely family guy. Wilkins treats Faith like a young woman and fosters her decline into evil, forming a father-daughter bond with her.
Faith is given lethal assignments by the Mayor, such as killing Skyler, retrieving the Box of Gavrok, and murdering Lester Worth. Angel, the Mayor’s vampire counterpart, is tempted to sacrifice his soul in order to obtain Buffy’s approval. Faith tries to seduce him but is unsuccessful owing to Angel’s aversion to intimacy. Wilkins employs a demonic shaman to extract Angel’s soul, and Faith and Angel collaborate to apprehend Buffy. The loss of Angel’s soul, on the other hand, is a ploy by the Scooby Gang to dupe Faith into disclosing the Ascension on Graduation Day at Sunnydale High.
