Fionn Whitehead post-Dunkirk

I feel like Fionn Whitehead got the dream role of a lifetime by essentially spearheading a Nolan film, being the main lead, acting as the perfect vessel for the audience during the beach scenes and more.

And yet post Dunkirk his career hasn’t blossomed into main leading roles like Dunkirk. How come? Is it because he’s such a good actor at disappearing he’s found more niche, indie roles suited to his skill set? Genuinely interested in where this persons career went post Dunkirk and where it might go.

Christian Bale was in his early 30’s when cast as Batman and albeit a much more pivotal, singular, meatier role, it still helped put him on the map and triangulate his career in a direction.
