First Real Look At Christopher Nolan's Wormhole Adventure Film INTERSTELLAR With New Trailer!

The first real trailer for Christopher Nolan's original sci-fi epic Interstellar has made it's way online. It's more than I was expecting, showing a lot of the problems facing Earth. Before the eventual mission to find something to save the planet's popular, teasing the wormhole aspect ever so slightly. I have to admit I was getting a few 2001 moments from the shuttle scenes. It will be release in November, and I'm shocked the studio didn't try to find a place for it in their summer lineup.

Anne Hathaway Re-Teams With Christopher Nolan For Sci-Fi Thriller INTERSTELLAR Starring Matthew McConaughy

Deadline reports that Oscar winning actress Anne Hathaway is in talks to take the female lead in Christopher Nolan' Interstellar. Matthew McConaughy was recently confirmed for the lead role of Cooper and Michael Caine is expected to have a part in the sci-fi film as well. Anne previously worked with Nolan on The Dark Knight Rises which gave audiences the best performance in the entire film. She was originally set to play the female lead in Steven Spielberg's Robopocalypse but the delays will likely allow her to make this project instead. Funny considering that Interstellar was once a Spielberg project.

Matthew McConaughey Accepts Lead Role In Christopher Nolan's INTERSTELLAR

Actor Matthew McConaughey (Dallas Buyer's Guide, Mud, Wolf of Wall Street, Magic Mike) had been offered the lead role of Cooper in Christopher Nolan's sci-fi film Interstellar last week. The actor confirmed to StarTribune (via ThePlaylist) that he's accepted the part in the film. Giving us the first confirmed actor in the outer space/warmhole/time-travel picture. Michael Caine had also given a heads up he'd have a role in Nolan's next project but an official announcement hasn't been made yet.

Christopher Nolan Wants Matthew McConaughey To Play The Main Character Cooper In INTERSTELLAR?

Deadline reports that Christopher Nolan is very interested in casting Matthew McConaughey as the lead in his wormhole sci-fi adventure film Interstellar. Matthew would play the main role of Cooper. McConaughey started his carare making well received films like Dazed And Confused and A Time To Kill but started chasing paychecks with horrible romantic comedies. His recent string of films such as Mud, Lincoln Lawyer, Killer Joe and Magic Mike have given him a new life in Hollywood. Matthew ended up earning an Independent Spirit Award for the latter. Apparently, there is already Oscar talk for his AIDS drama Dallas Buyer's Guide. The actor went all Christian Bale and lost a crazy amount of weight to play his character. Matthew will also be seen in Martin Scorsese's Wolf of Wall Street alongside Leonardo DiCaprio later this year, which could have also helped get Nolan's attention. The only other actor linked for Interstellar includes Michael Caine. He already teased a role in the film before it was even announced. We won't have to wait long for the film's release as it's coming on November 7th 2014.

Christopher Nolan's INTERSTELLAR Coming November 2014

THR reports that Warner Bros. and Paramount have set the release date for Christopher Nolan's sci-fi thriller Interstellar for November 7th 2014. Chris' brother Jonathan Nolan (Memento, Dark Knight, Dark Knight Rises, The Prestige) has written the film's script. No word on casting so far as Wally Pfister's Transcendence is looking for it's supporting cast at the moment. Nolan will also produce that sci-fi project which has a release date of April 25th 2014.

SPECULATION: LatinoReview Teases New Writer For JUSTICE LEAGUE, Could It Be David Goyer Or Jonah Nolan?

LatinoReview has tweeted a tease for a news concerning a new writer for Justice League. It's possible they could be hinting that David Goyer or Jonah Nolan (Memento, Prestige) might be hired to take a shot at the script. Will Beall's recent script was thrown out by the studio because of it's horrible quality. Having two writers so close to the Batman franchise write Justice League seems logical. There had been rumors dating back to before the release of The Dark Knight Rises that Jonah would not only write Justice League's script but also direct it. Considering Wally Pfister is branching out with directing Transcendence anything is possible.

Jonah wrote along with brother Chris the final two Batman films with story credits from Goyer. David has his own lengthly genre credits with writing Batman Begins, Blade trilogy, Dark City along with recent reboots Godzilla and Man of Steel. He also wrote for Black Ops 1-2 which are considered some of the highest grossing video games.

Christopher Nolan Returning To Sci-Fi With INTERSTELLAR

HeatVision is reporting Christopher Nolan's next film will be a full jump into the world of science fiction. We had a taste of sci-fi with Inception using dream-machines and the world of the dream being explored. This original film Interstellar written by his brother Jonathan Nolan will be based on the sciencetific theories of Kip Thorne. It's story involves time travel and alternate dimensions, and sees a group of explorers travel through a wormhole. Interstellar will be made under Nolan's Syncopy banner but will be shared between Paramount and Warner Bros. At one point Steven Spielberg had been interested in the project.

Nothing is being mentioned cast-wise but Michael Caine confirmed last year he was going to have a role in Nolan's next project which would be from an original concept. It's possible that other Nolan regulars will take part in the journey as well. Currently, Nolan is producing Wally Pfister's directorial debut sci-fi thriller Transcendence. A start date for Interstellar isn't revealed either but I'm sure casting will high priority for Nolan soon.

SPECULATION: Could Christopher Nolan Reinvent 007 With BOND 26?

There's nothing more that Christopher Nolan fans want than to see him tackle Bond.
He's professed his love for the franchise over the years and has even met with producers in the past about helming one. Skyfall producer Gregg Wilson commented (via ThePlaylist) on the possibility of Christopher taking a shot at directing. Of course he seems optimistic and also a bit coy at the same time. Director Sam Mendes has stated he took direct influence from The Dark Knight for Skyfall. It's safe to say that the Bond camp is very fond of Nolan and will try to work something out for the future.

More recently Nolan stated if he was to do it would make a Bond film he'd start fresh. Meaning, a new actor in the role so he can make his stamp on the franchise. Names such as Idris Elba, Michael Fassbender and Tom Hardy have been mentioned as potential new Bonds. All seem like actors that Nolan would be eager to work with. However, Daniel Craig over the summer re-signed with producers for Bond 24 and Bond 25. This would give Nolan time/breathing-room between the next two films to put together his vision for Bond 26. Not to mention directing a film or two of his own in the meantime.

Christopher Nolan Still Wants To Make A Bond Film

Now that The Dark Knight Rises is about to hit theaters next month, the big question is what's next for Christopher Nolan? He had lined up a new Howard Hughes film but in an interview with Empire (via ThePlaylist) Chris states he has moved on. Another dream project he mentions is taking a shot at directing a Bond film sometime in the future. His previous film Inception was a giant love letter to Bond (within the science fiction genre) which took a lot of influence from the films.

This gives the impression like with Batman he could want to create his own Bond vision meaning a new actor taking on the role of Bond. We've been hearing rumors that actors such as Michael Fassbender and Idris Elba could be inline for the role next. However, if Nolan gets complete creative control over the film (extremely likely) he could cast actors he's previously worked with such as Cillian Murphy or even Tom Hardy as 007. Daniel Craig seems up for another film but producers will be watching closely at the reviews and the box office on Skyfall to see if they need to get new blood in the role.

Another possible film is the long in-development adaptation of The Exec which is based on a comic It's setup at Warner Bros. with Emma Thomas, David Heyman (Harry Potter Films) and Akiva Goldsman producing. The Exec seems like it could be our best chance for a semi-sequel to Inception as the main theme is greedy/violent corporations. Back in 2003 it had been reported by Variety that Jonathan Nolan was going to write with Chris directing. This project has been kicking around for almost ten years so it's unlikely it will ever get made. The comic's creator Doug Miers passed away in 2005 which might be the reason why it's been stuck in development.

In this offbeat, irreverent tale, corporations have achieved the status of nations, and if you're not tops in the boardroom, you'll find yourself laid out on the coroner's slab. In Comics Conspiracy's The Exec, your income and assets are the only things keeping you alive -- unless you remembered to pack your butcher knife or grenade launcher with your brown bag lunch.


Jack Pierce finds himself smack dab in the middle of this tongue-in-cheek look at the world of big business, but will this job give new meaning to being terminated?Welcome to the world of The Exec. When corporations achieve sovereignty, the term ‘Corporate Warfare’ takes on a whole new meaning. 


Executives are above the law and business decisions are accompanied by the sound of gunfire and explosions. Jack Pierce is a hotshot executive/executioner in a society where income level literally determines whether one is regarded as predator or prey.

Christian Bale Open To Making 'BATMAN 4' ?

Christopher Nolan has stated The Dark Knight Rises will be his last Batman film but will be the last one for Christian Bale? Bale gives the impression to Empire that he's keeping an open mind on coming back if the right elements are in place. Those just happen to be a great script which would likely have to come from the Nolan camp.

"My understanding is that this is the last one. I think it's appropriate, I think it's going out at the right time. But...if Chris came to me with a script and said, 'You know what? There is another story' then I would love the challenge of making a fourth one work."



While Christopher is indeed stepping away from the director's chair he never said he'd stop writing the films with his brother Jonathan. If Nolan hand-picks the new director it could be worth making if the same team minus Chris came back. It's very rare that a third installment in a franchise eclipses the first two films is if does there will be a massive demand from audiences and Warner Bros. for one movie. Bale is right, it would be a rather large uphill battle to make a fourth film just as good or even better.

Jonathan Nolan Might Rewrite Akira Script

Variety has expanded on their original tweet involving Warner Bros. looking to rewrite Steve Kloves' (Harry Potter films) script for Akira. They mention that the studio is currently looking at Jonathan Nolan and Michael Green for the rewriting job. Nolan is the younger brother of Christopher Nolan and is responsible for helping him write films like Memento, The Prestige, The Dark Knight and the upcoming Dark Knight Rises. The former of which earned the screenwriter an Oscar nomination. Michael on the other hand is mostly known for television work and last summer's biggest flop Green Lantern. He apparently was hired to write a sequel to Green Lantern (why?) and for an adaptation of The Flash. The Nolan name could bring some much needed pedigree to the ailing project. Which in turn could attract better known and established actors to the cast.

RUMOR: Joe Manganiello Frontrunner For Superman?

HeroComplex has tweeted that True Blood star Joe Manganiellois could be the frontrunner for Zack Snyder's Superman: Man of Steel. Manganiello has previously stated that he's tested for the role.

"Is "True Blood" werewolf star Joe Manganiello a frontrunner to play Superman? That's the rumor du jour in Hollywood"
