The fact that Nolan is making a romantic thriller is intriguing. The director never deals directly with romance in his films, so it will be interesting to see what he’s got planned for this. He’s never really done anything romantic!
Also, I’m a big fan of North By Northwest, so the fact that this next film is going to be in the tone of that and Inception is pretty exciting. Does this mean that Nolan’s next movie will be a romantic spy thriller built around some kind of crazy big and mind-bending Nolan concept?
I can’t wait to see what this movie ends up being, but we’ll find out soon enough. Warner Bros. has already set the release date for the film for July 17, 2020.
What do you hope to see from Nolan’s next big movie project?
