Very happy about Cillian being in this actually!Allstar wrote: ↑October 11th, 2021, 5:10 pmAre you not happy with the Cillian casting? I understand wanting new people to work with Nolan but Cillian imo really deserves this chance to lead one of his films. It’s long overdue. I’m looking forward to some first time Nolan collaborators in the supporting cast.
Not that I would know who they could play nor that I would necessarily put them in my dream cast, but I could see Robert Pattinson reuniting with Nolan and I could also see Greta Gerwig being cast. Essentially this is due to Nolan's prior working relationship with Pattinson and Gerwig seems to have the same film-making process as Nolan so I could see them having a compatible mentality.
Greta Gerwig in a Nolan film, idk sounds weird to me
I don't know about you guys, but since Dunkirk that it seems to me that Nolan is trying to bring not so known actors to his films, or support actors to bigger rolls. Maybe because he doesn't want the audience to see the same faces on larger rolls because it reminds them from "the guy from the other movie".
Dunkirk mostly had unknown actors to play the bigger parts. And all the best actors were there as support and even being the best, they are not the "face that brings people to the cinema" like DiCaprio in Inception for instance.
For Tenet he brought a John David, which is not the guy you look at and think that you have to go the the movies to see him. Nolan's name is enough for it now, so he can cast whoever he wants.
like Cillian as a lead in this movie.. Yes, he's good and he is known, but it's not usually the face of any movie, where they promote the movie because of an actor.. Except maybe peaky blinders, but even so. So I guess the other actors will be good but not the big big names..

I think we can rule out Caine for this one.

I knew it, I felt it!
This is truly the era of changes for Nolan, no doubt about it, the end of three things for him:
The Nolan/Warner era
The Nolan/Zimmer era
The Nolan/Caine era

The "goodbye Sir Michael" in Tenet definitely felt a little on the nose...
