We Heard a Nice Rumor About Christopher Nolan’s Newest Movie

Spider-Man actor Tom Holland was simply solid within the subsequent movie by Oscar-winning filmmaker Christopher Nolan and whereas nobody is precisely positive what that film is about but, we simply heard a brilliant thrilling, juicy rumor about it.

Since Universal announced it was reteaming with Nolan, followers all over the place have been speculating concerning the nature of the movie. One rumor is that it’s a horror film. One other is that it’s a helicopter motion film like 1983’s Blue Thunder. And the Hollywood Reporter story about Holland’s casting writes that “the setting is just not current day (though it’s unclear whether or not it’s set previously or the long run).” Effectively, we heard two of these may probably be true. io9 obtained phrase from a dependable supply that Nolan’s movie is a vampire film set within the Twenties.

We all know what you’re considering: “Isn’t Ryan Coogler already making that film?” Sure, he’s. It’s called Sinners and it’s out in March. However that doesn’t imply there isn’t room for 2 visionary filmmakers to sort out the identical matter, particularly when the releases are to date aside. Don’t overlook, not solely was Nolan one among many administrators to sort out Batman, he did a magic film—The Status—across the identical time as a rival studio was doing a magic film, The Illusionist. He’s not beholden to what different persons are doing. Plus, it’s not like interval horror films are everywhere in the nation’s multiplexes today or ever. There’s loads of room for 2 or perhaps much more of those.

io9 reached out to Common for affirmation or denial of the rumor and didn’t hear again as of publication. We’ll replace the publish if or once we do.

So is Nolan’s newest a interval vampire film? In all probability, however we will’t say for positive. What we will say for positive is it’s Nolan’s first film since profitable Oscars for Finest Image and Finest Director for Oppenheimer. It stars Matt Damon and, now, Tom Holland—who’ll reportedly shoot the movie alongside Spider-Man 4 and Avengers: Doomsday. We additionally realize it’s being launched by Common, in IMAX, on July 17, 2026.

Let’s be sincere although. All of us need this rumor to be true, proper?

That seems like the right night time on the films. Let’s cross our fingers… however don’t present the vampires.
