Here’s everything to know so far about Nolan’s upcoming film.
- It’s likely to entail mystery
Nolan’s film has become one of the most talked about in Hollywood, although he’s made sure to shroud his project in secrecy.
The film has been described as a “massive action blockbuster” which will be shown in IMAX, similar to how his 2017 filmDunkirkwas shown, according toVariety.
It’s likely the film will be a major action film, although Nolan also favors twisting plotlines and adding elements of mystery. He famously did so with his second feature filmMementoand has continued to follow that through with hits such asThe PrestigeandThe Dark Knight Trilogy.
