Actor David Dastmalchian’s collaborations with Christopher Nolan and Denis Villeneuve made him the directors’ go-to source for learning about each other.Following the release of his new horror film Late Night with the Devil, Dastmalchian spoke with The Hollywood Reporter about his unique career path and work as a character actor. This path, which began with a small role in The Dark Knight, would lead to him appearing in three of Villeneuve’s films and, more recently, joining Nolan’s star-studded Oppenheimer cast as Atomic Energy Committee executive director William L. Borden. When asked what it was like working with Nolan again, Dastmalchian revealed that he hadn’t “seen him since The Dark Knight other than one chance run-in at a park when I was playing with my kids. So I got a chance to thank him for inviting me to be a part of [Oppenheimer], and then he told me how much he had enjoyed seeing me as Polka-Dot Man in James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad. It made me feel very happy to know that he not only saw it, but that he also liked it.”Outside of Oppenheimer, Dastmalchian performed in multiple films last year, including The Boogeyman, The Last Voyage of the Demeter and a voice role in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. In addition to being one of 2023’s best films, Oppenheimer dominated this year’s Academy Awards with seven Oscar wins, including Best Picture and a first-ever Best Director win for Nolan. Villeneuve’s Dune: Part Two, meanwhile, received universal acclaim following its February release, even surpassing the box office numbers of the filmmaker’s original Dune adaptation.
