It’ll probably be similar to the mix we had in Interstellar and Dunkirk, re: 70mm/IMAX.

I just hope the announcement is a grand slam shocker.

Judging by previous announcement, it will more be like a big "... huh? Well... okay, I guess" :D

Maybe that the new tradition is to announce each project during Christmas.

That would mean Monday the 31st would be the day to announce, or maybe Jan 2nd Wednesday, right in time for the new year.

it's defentily either houard hughs project, or bond.

personely I prefer to see his take on howard hughes.
it will be his first non-action motivated feature.

It hasn't been that long since Nolan said the Hughes project is temporarily shelved. So it's definitely not his next project. Maybe 3-4 movies down the line.

And there is already a Bond movie in the making. That means that the next Bond film is 4-5 years away at least. Since Bond 28 is Craig's last, it might take even longer before they find a new actor to play Bond. There was a four year gap between Die Another Day and Casino Royale. So Bond 29 could easily be in 2024 or even 2025.

That's a good thing though, because it means that Nolan could make another film for release in 2020 or even 2021 (please god dont make it take that long), and still be attached for a Bond soft reboot, and possibly have a say in who gets the lead. Hell, he could even make two films before Bond if he want to.

My bet is on a more conventional (as conventional as a Nolan film gets) action movie. Original of course.

I don't think Howard Hughes will be his next project either, unfortunately. It has been 14 years since The Aviator released though. The fact that he's still reluctant to revisit the story after that long is crazy, especially since The Aviator wasn't a particularly memorable movie (at least that's how I feel about it) and didn't really capture mass appeal or anything - certainly not in terms of Scorsese movies. Then there's the fact that The Prestige, which some still consider Nolan's best movie, released right alongside The Illusionist. So why wasn't that an issue then? I think Nolan is exercising a little Hughes-esque paranoia about the whole thing.

Here's what Nolan told The Daily Beast in 2014:
I think it’s the best script I’ve ever written, and I had a really wonderful experience writing it. Yeah, it was a frustrating experience that the other movie got going. Will I revisit it? I have no idea. I really don’t think about what I’m going to do next until I’m completely finished, and for the next couple of weeks I’m still all about Interstellar. I wouldn’t necessarily rule it out, but I wrote it a long time ago.
Then at a BAFTA event last year:
Howard Hughes is a fascinating character. A lot of what I put into the script, which I do intend to make one day, I put into Bruce Wayne. There’s been many films that have addressed different aspects of his life but not the whole thing.
The fact that he still considers it his best script even as recent as Interstellar is simply amazing.
