I couldn't be more excited. I can't remember the last time that Leo had a movie that came out in the summer. I know that this collaboration will be golden. Can't wait!

This is going to be an awesome combo. Can't wait for it.

As Steve Weintraub said on Collider, it will be nice to see DiCaprio on a summer blockbuster. The words "sci-fi actioner" and "july" mean a lot these days. Although we know nothing about it at this point, I think we're in for a real treat.

I'd watch anything Nolan does. And I'd watch anything Leo is in. Thiago is right, we are in for a real treat.

One of the best collaborations i can think of…it's really nice to see DiCaprio do something like this. And with Nolan writing and directing the movie is sure to be quite awesome
