Fuck a Bond, his 2026 film should be a female-led sci-fi film of some kind to continue the sci-fi/war/sci-fi/war pattern that he appears to be following:
sci-fi: Inception
war: TDKR (his words; he considers it a war film lol)
sci-fi: Interstellar
war: Dunkirk
sci-fi: TENET
war: Oppy
And then in 2029, a final WW2 film to round out the Nolan WW2 trilogy
Since I'm interested in the question of historical accuracy with regards to this film, the following was really nice to read:
"[The calculation on whether the atmosphere would be ignited] came from Teller. One of the few things I've changed is it wasn't Einstein who Oppenheimer went to consult about it, it was Arthur Compton who directed an outpost of the Manhattan Project at the University of Chicago. But I shifted that to Einstein.
And Einstein is the personality people know in the audience. But the calculation came from Teller. And I think he took almost the perverse kind of pride, you know? Those are the nature of the discussions. Horrifying.
This has been the major inaccuracy from the trailers that I've been wondering about, so it's interesting to see exactly why that scene is there and that it's "supposed" to specifically be that 1942 meeting with Compton (and I find myself sort of agreeing with Nolan here). But the fact that he says this is one of the few changes from history he's made is very exciting. This has the potential to be one of the more accurate Hollywood historical films out there.
Likewise; I've enjoyed the odd Bond film here and there, but I'm not sure why it's a common refrain among folks to want Nolan to direct one. I'd much rather he focus on more conceptual and original projects (again, using a loose definition of "original" such that Oppenheimer counts as original).
Agreed I would prefer he focuses on other stuff of his own or maybe do an adaptation of a novel, etc. Besides, I want to see another Cary Fukanaga Bond movie.
i fully expect Sam Mendes to come out of the blue with some thriller about the cuban missile crisis or the Stalisnav Petrov`s "stop armageddon moment" out of the blue and leech of that sweet sweet oscar buzz

Or an Einstein biopic...
Unfortunately I don't see anyone making an Einstein biopic after that National Geographic miniseries with Geoffrey Rush, which is a shame because, although it was alright, I'd have really liked to see an interpretation of Einstein's story which was less, for lack of a better word, "ordinary" and less reliant on melodrama.
