Christopher Nolan does like working with actors several times. He frequently returns actors from previous efforts and also has a few real favorites who are almost like a muse for him, such as Michael Caine. One actor set to return for him is Robert Pattinson.
He will shoot early next year, and joins Matt Damon, Tom Holland, Anne Hathaway, Lupita Nyong’o, and Zendaya in this mysterious project.
Having been assumed to be his long-gestating remake of The Prisoner, and then a period vampire movie, the latest rumor was that it is a Blue Thunder-inspired project set in the world of a high-tech helicopter, terrorists, and the LAPD air unit.
Perhaps challenging this was the comment in the The Hollywood Reporter story saying that all these guesses are wildly off target. Whatever it is, that is quite a cast they are building.
Nolan is producing alongside his partner and wife Emma Thomas. The movie is set to release on July 17th, 2026, and will again be set up at Nolan’s new home – Universal.
Pattinson would be expected to roll off this directly onto The Batman Part II.
