I think a male and female co-lead is more likely imo.Insomniac wrote: ↑January 29th, 2019, 8:58 amI keep coming back to this thought:
Nolan would never ever admit this but doesn't it somehow feel like his last two movies have been almost like responses to common conceptions of him. Interstellar feels like a response to the criticism that he's cold and unemotional and cynical. Dunkirk is the response to the complaints that he's overly obsessed with plot and exposition.
In other words, female lead (or even female leads) is almost a certainty I think.
TENET - General Information
I tend to always agree with this. But you can still extract an incredible original idea from the core of novels and non fictions. I threw Tommyknockers around as one that could be grounded in supernatural; rather than horror. It would allow Nolan to dabble in the "horror" genre, without actually committing. Truth is - there's almost zero chance in my mind that Nolan does anything similar to that, or his previous films.

Nolan's next will be a climbing movie
... now we are going somewhere. I wouldn't rule out an expedition film. Why hasn't someone done a visionary film on Shackleton yet?

A sequel to Cliffhanger with Stallone?

now THAT would be exciting
An Englishman taking on Napoléon is not a good idea.
Especially not after his depiction of the French at Dunkirk.
I love[ how the French are depicted in Dunkirk's opening scene; the bitter glares, the sarcastic four words that nails the geopolitical situation on the ground, and the French valiantly fighting back as Tommy runs toward the beach.
Quantity/screen-time-wise, though? Yeah, I could definitely see the argument that they should have been in it more.
But to get back on topic, absolutely no way that Napoleon is happening...for one simple reason: Mr. Nolan would consider it a necessity that a film like that be authentic and in French, which itself can't happen because general audiences hate reading subtitles.

I don't think Interstellar was a response to that. I don't think Nolan pays any attention to his naysayers on the Internet, since he made it very clear that he doesn't use Internet. Especially to read opinions of those who have no clue of what they're talking about. His first Batman movie is probably the most schmaltzy, emotion-driven superhero movie after Spider-Man films by Sam Raimi. Inception is all built on heart and emotions. Those naysayers, of course, can say that all of that schmaltz and emotion was forced, but then they will be just making excuses.Insomniac wrote: ↑January 29th, 2019, 8:58 amI keep coming back to this thought:

I bet Nolan is aware of this place. WB has to be, at least.
