Robert Pattinson is reteaming with Christopher Nolan for the filmmaker’s much-ballyhooed and much-shrouded new feature film project.
The actor, who starred in Nolan’s 2020 sci-fi thriller Tenetnow joins a stacked cast that includes Matt Damon, Tom Holland, Anne Hathaway, Lupita Nyong’o and Zendaya.
Nolan wrote the script and is directing the project, which Universal Pictures will distribute. The studio has set a release date of July 17, 2026.
Nolan’s latest comes with even fewer plot or logline details than usual for the highly secretive filmmaker. Various theoretical, even divergent, details have been posited regarding the project — a period vampire thriller, a helicopter action thriller — but insiders maintain that nothing has come close to nailing Nolan’s real idea.
Sources say that Damon, Holland, Hathaway and now Pattinson make up the core leads of the feature. Nyong’o and Zendaya are said to have supporting roles.
The filmmaker is producing alongside his partner and wife Emma Thomas for their Syncopy banner. A shoot in the first half of 2025 is being planned.
Pattinson starred alongside John David Washington in Tenetthe last movie that Nolan made for Warner Bros. The movie was released during the COVID-19 pandemic amid tension between the filmmaker and his then-longtime home, Warner Bros., which wanted to release it on its streaming service, then called HBO Go. The movie only made $58.5 million domestically, $365 million worldwide and fractured his relationship with Warner Bros.
The actor is due to return to Batman for Matt Reeves’ sequel and there was hope that it could shoot sometime next year. Those hopes remain in place but nothing is close to being planned.
