New TV Spot For TENET, Which Christopher Nolan Says Has More Action Than Anything Else He's Made
Warner Bros. has dropped a new TV spot for Christopher Nolan’s upcoming Quantum Cold War action spy thriller Tenet. The trailer offers a bit of new time-bending footage. One of the more interesting parts in the spot features one of the characters, played by Clémence Poésy saying, “It’s inverted. Someone’s manufacturing them in the future.” I have no idea what that means, but I’m intrigued!
In a recent interview with Esquire, Nolan opened up about the action in the film saying, “The film has more action than any film I’ve ever done. It has a plethora of action sequences that [John David Washington took] the lead in. So he gets to do all kinds of different things. That athleticism also puts itself into the way he walks down the street and the way he talks and the way he moves.”
Nolan doesn’t have to sell me on the film anymore, I’m already sold. Tenet has been described as a “mind-blowing espionage thriller so unique that audiences will puzzle over its intricacies for years to come.” It’s also said to be a “time-bending masterpiece” about a Quantum Cold War. This is the recent synopsis for the film that was shared:
Armed with only one word – Tenet – and fighting for the survival of the entire world, the Protagonist journeys through a twilight world of international espionage on a mission that will unfold in something beyond real time. Not time travel. Inversion.
The movie stars John David Washington, Robert Pattinson, Elizabeth Debicki, Dimple Kapadia, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Clémence Poésy, Michael Caine, and Kenneth Branagh.
Tenet is still seemingly scheduled to be released in theaters on July 17th as the studio hasn’t said otherwise.
