Jojo Rabbit is a 2019 American comedy-drama film written and directed by Taika Waititi and was based on the Christine Leunens novel "Caging Skies". Roman Griffin Davis stars in the film as Johannes "Jojo" Betzler, a Hitler Youth member who discovers that his mother Rosie (Scarlett Johansson) is hiding a Jewish girl (Thomasin McKenzie) in their attic. He must then question his beliefs, while dealing with the intervention of his imaginary friend, a fanciful version of Adolf Hitler (portrayed by Waititi). The film's cast includes Rebel Wilson, Stephen Merchant, Alfie Allen, and Sam Rockwell. Jojo Rabbit would go on to be nominated for six Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Supporting Actress for Johansson, with Waititi receiving the Award for Best Adapted Screenplay.
The following weapons were used in the film Jojo Rabbit:
Captain Klenzendorf (Sam Rockwell) is seen using a Walther P38 to impress the young boys at the HJ Summer camp. Later his assistant, Finkel (Alfie Allen), uses it in battle.
Fraulein Rahm (Rebel Wilson) carries a Luger P08 throughout the film. She tries to offer the pistol to Jojo, then she is seen holding it in the conference room and during the battle, where she tries to hand it to Yorki, Jojo's friend.
During the battle, Captain Klenzendorf (Sam Rockwell) is armed with an ornately decorated MP 18/I, specifically an interwar "System Schmeisser" conversion for German police and paramilitary issue. Earlier in the film, when Klenzendorf is planning his loadout to carry into battle, he refers to his submachine gun as a "Gatling Gun".
During the battle sequences, an extra and a little girl can be seeing holding a MP 3008, a limited production SMG copied from the Sten Gun to arm the Volkssturm with a cheap and effective automatic gun.
Several Volkssturm units during the battle carry the Mauser Gewehr 1898, a WWI era rifle reused in the last months of the war as a last ditch measure to arm militias.
The Mosin Nagant can be seen clearly in the hands of several Volkssturm fighters (this is not a historical error, since by the end of WWII, the militias of the Third Reich were armed with anything at hand, included some of the millions of Mosin Nagant rifles captured during Operation Barbarossa) and some Red Army soldiers.
German forces use the MG42 throughout the battle. Yorki asks Jojo to help him bring an MG42 along with some ammo to the frontline. Fraulein Rahm (Rebel Wilson) is also seen taking up the MG42 while engaging the opposing forces. In this scene, the weapon likely is an airsoft replica, since it has a strange plastic block in the action. Also, it sounds like the MG42 used by Frau Rahm has a very low rate of fire (likely a choice made in post production).
The Browning M2HB machine gun is seen mounted on several US armored vehicles. Later, a US Jeep with a Browning M2HB mounted on it is seen parked on the side of a road for maintenance.
A Panzerschreck is seen carried by Yorki and another child. When Yorki stops to greet Jojo, he drops the Panzerschreck, causing it to fire accidentally. Later, it's in the hands of a woman fighting in the battle.
