nolan dicaprio watanabe Filming of Inception Already Underway in Japan

A picture of Christopher Nolan, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Ken Watanabe featured in a Japanese publication has surfaced. The photo containing the Inception director, and two of its stars, was taken on June 15th in Tokyo, Japan (one of the reported filming locations of Inception). According to reports, filming is already underway in that country, which is only one of six reported countries the film is scheduled to shoot in. Big thanks to GamingFreak in the forums for bringing this picture to our attention. And an even bigger thanks to Reki, who posted these on a Leo fan forum the other day.

Really happy Nolan is directing another film. I'm sure it will be good.

I still love Nolan's work and the man himself… but if he won't direct Batman 3, I will be very angry:-D Okay, okay, apart from that it's a great picture. The first picture in connection with the film, so I'm glad that it surfaced. And maybe because of the beginning of the filming, we're about to see other pictures from the set or something.

I couldn't contain my excitement once I saw that image.

thanks for the link gamingfreak, and thanks for the post teddy. the amazing thing for me is how under the radar all is happening. like joseph gordon-levitt said, i guess nolan has a master plan to present this thing for audiences and i start to wonder how much he got involved with the creation of the arg for tdk. and for a couple of laughs, i'm proud to report the newest nolan project: peanuts. have you guys seen this? http://bloglynch.blogspot.com/2009/06/script-review-christopher-nolans.html

What did I just read, thiago? lmao, that was hilariously dumb.
[thiago]

you're probably right, chee – but you know how it goes… one can get quite worked up about some nolan news, and all of a sudden he starts to search the interwebs about some more nolan fix and he ends up on a strange blog, with a very strange purpose, with an even stranger post. it's dumb, but i'm glad you found it hilariously so… LOL. the year separating us from july 2010 will feel a very long one. at least i'm not alone. ; )

July 2010 is going to be great. Graduatinghigh school, turning 18, Inception is released. Can't wait.

I seriously cannot wait till next summer. This film is going to be so awesome!

Mr. Nolan, I think you might be interested in a story I have written, which would make a good follow up to Inception. Please contact me (as I am unable to contact you), if you’re at all interested. 816.214.8638. Sincerest regards, William
