It’s a common criticism amongst critics that Nolan generally does terrible women in his films.
One of the Empire magazine critics-
it's a problem with Nolan's women I may have droned on about before. Shares the Bond format where 50% of women are evil.
I naively hope things will be improved with this film. Debicki did choose this over other projects she had offers for.
Well, I don't get this as a criticism. 50% of the females are evil? Whoooo! Because the evil parts are often the juiciest, most fun parts in a film.
Now, if Nolan crafts a female antagonist that is not fully realized and complex...well then it's a problem. But if he crafts a great villain and the character is female? That's not a bad thing, IMHO.
I don´t have IMDBPro, but how or why you think or you heard that Nolan have met with Reimo Sagor ( guy on this link)
Helen Schasmin (script writer and film critic) talked about it a few months ago that she represented Estonian scenarists as a consultant in a meeting with Nolan when he was in Estonia to meet with Sagar at the end of February.
I saw on local news video about Estonian actors on castinds .There have faces of Oja dynasty.
