Elizabeth Debicki and Robert Pattinson have joined the cast ofChristopher Nolan’s mysterious upcoming movie. The Pattinson and Debicki casting announcement comes one day after it was announced thatBlacKkKlansmanactor John David Washington had signed on to star in the movie. As for specifics about Nolan’s next project, it has only been described as an “even film,” by the studio at this time. Now that casting is taking place, we should get a better idea of what the director/writer has up his sleeve this time around in the coming weeks.
Since there is such limited information about the nextChristopher Nolanmovie, it isn’t clear who Elizabeth Debicki and Robert Pattinson are playing or what their respective characters will be doing. The same can be said about John David Washington’s role, other than the fact that he is the lead in the mysterious project. Debicki recently earned praise for her work in Steve McQueen’s 2018 movieWidowsand is expected to reprise her Ayesha role in the upcomingGuardians of the Galaxy 3, which just gained James Gunn back to the director’s chair.
Robert Pattinsonwill next be seen in Claire Denis’High Lifeand has a pretty packed 2019 schedule ahead of him withThe LighthouseandWaiting for the Barbarians, which are expected to premiere this year. Pattinson starred in 2005’sHarry Potter and the Goblet of Fireand later became a mega star thanks to his role as Edward Cullen from theTwilightfranchise. He has mostly stayed away from big Hollywood productions since then, but has kept very busy in the following years.
As for Christopher Nolan, his last project on the big screen was the 2017 WWII movieDunkirk. The movie was praised by critics and was a box office success. Additionally, the project earned him his first Best Director Academy Award nomination. Nolan recently finished the script for his next movie, which will hit theaters on July 17th, 2020, three years afterDunkirk. One anonymous insider declares that the mystery projectis going to be a huge action blockbuster. Obviously, that bit of news comes from an anonymous source, so we’ll treat that as a rumor for now until it is proven otherwise.
A previous source claimed that Christopher Nolan’s next movie was going to be Alfred Hitchcock’sNorth by Northwestmixed with his ownInception. However, that waslater proven to be false by the studio, who did not offer any other information than that. Whatever the case may be, one can easily assume that it will be innovative and probably filmed using super expensive 70mm cameras to give the best quality on the big screen. For now, we’ll just have to keep guessing until Nolan and or the studio give us some more concrete details.The Hollywood Reporterwas the first to reveal the mystery movie casting news.
