Very few directors manage to earn the status of modern auteur, and Christopher Nolan definitely fits the bill.
After the smashing success of his biopic Oppenheimer, Nolan is now ready to sink his teeth into his next project, which has gathered an impressive cast including Tom Holland and Matt Damon. Now THR is reporting that the likes of Robert Pattinson and Charlize Theron are also going to be part of the cast.
No details have been revealed about the roles, but when it comes to Pattinson’s character, some are expecting it to just be a small role. After all, he’s expected to spend most of his time next year shooting the sequel to The Batman with director Matt Reeves.
It’s also worth noting that Pattinson also worked with Nolan in his last action movie Tenet, which also had several A-list actors playing bit parts.
Besides the cast members mentioned, Nolan’s next movie has also managed to include Anne Hathaway, Lupita Nyong’o, and Zendaya. No details have been revealed about the movie, but there are rumors going around that it would either have something to do with a high-tech helicopter or be horror film that’s also a period piece.
Based on Nolan’s repertoire, he’s managed to tackle most genres from sci-fi, including jumping forward in time and going back. Who knows, maybe this time he’ll take a stab at buddy comedies?
Christopher Nolan’s next movie is set to release in theatres on July 17, 2026.
