I'm on page 12 and so far, there are only leprechauns and dragons.

To lay eyes on it, you must first get past security at the gate to the 142-acre complex, then find your way to a nondescript beige building. On the second floor, behind a door labeled "Syncopy," an assistant will check to see if your name is on an elite list of people allowed, one at a time, into an office to see it.

No note taking is allowed, no pictures, and definitely no photocopies as you read the dog-eared, slightly faded, only physical copy of a document potentially worth hundreds of millions of dollars: a movie screenplay.
The scene of these cloak-and-dagger tactics is the offices of Christopher Nolan's production company, Syncopy, on the Warner Bros. lot in Burbank, Calif., where the famously secretive filmmaker has gone to extreme lengths to guard the script to next year's big-budget science-fiction film "Interstellar," just as he did with the blockbuster "Dark Knight" trilogy. People who have worked on movies with Mr. Nolan described the process. Mr. Nolan declined to comment through a spokeswoman.

Intense security on scripts has become standard operating procedure in Hollywood, where studios and producers no longer just worry about movies being pirated. Now they stay awake imagining that an incomplete draft of a script will be posted online, reviewed by a fan blogger and trashed on Twitter, —potentially souring audiences before a frame has been shot.

"It's like the NSA these days," said Lynda Obst , a producer whose 30-year filmography includes "Flashdance," "Sleepless in Seattle," and "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days." Ms. Obst is a producer on Mr. Nolan's "Interstellar" but declined to discuss the security procedures on that film, which recently began shooting.
