It was reported back in 2006 that Christopher Nolan would direct The Prisoner, a film adaptation of the 1960′s television show, for Universal. Producer Barry Mendel, speaking to CineFools, has now confirmed that Chris Nolan has dropped out of it.” The script, written by David and Janet Peoples (Twelve Monkeys), will continue to be worked on even with Nolan out of the project. And now with The Prisoner out of the way, Christopher Nolan is now free to pursue any project once Inception is completed.

Christopher Nolan’s next project is “Inception”
Posted on Thursday, February 12th, 2009 at 3:04 am by TeddyBlassChristopher Nolan has set up his next project with Warner Bros, an original screenplay he wrote called Inception. The filmmaker hopes to shoot the sci-fi action film in the summer for a release during summer 2010. Nolan will produce with partner Emma Thomas, who served as a producer on The Dark Knight. “Chris Nolan is a visionary filmmaker who continually raises the bar with each movie he makes,” Warner Bros Pictures Group president Jeff Robinov said. “We are thrilled to be collaborating again with him and Emma on this exciting new motion picture.” “Inception” is described as “a contemporary sci-fi actioner set within the architecture of the mind.” This pushes back any potential filming on a new Batman film. Nolan has also long been attached to direct a big-screen adaptation of the British TV series “The Prisoner” for producer Scott Stuber at Universal.
