The physicist who supwevised Japanese tranlsation of TENET seems to start working on Oppenheimer. It's great progress but maybe there're a lot work left before the release?

Reasons to bet "no": it has no release date so far, whereas Barbie does. Opening weekend in the US has already passed so it's not like they were waiting on that. And, of course, a movie about the atomic bomb and its first usages, is perhaps not a great one for the country.
Reasons to bet "yes": apparently, Japan has a history of screening WW2 films without an issue, and delays in determining the release date are something that happens frequently.
