Currently Browsing: "Christopher Nolan"

It seems fitting that we just wrote about the trailer for Pandorum this morning, as it appears to be a contemporary sci-fi actioner set within the architecture of the mind. Coincidentally, that is the exact same description that Warner Bros. is giving for Christopher Nolan’s next film, Inception.

Nolan is suiting up in his director’s costume (complete with rubber nipples) to direct his own original screenplay Inception. Ready for a science fiction thriller from the man who brought us Memento? Yes, please.

When I look back through this past year, one film easily rises above the rest in the realm of soundtrack: The Dark Knight. The following video gives us a behind the soundboard look at the creation of The Joker’s theme.

Forget the Best and the Worst of 2008. These are the actors, directors and producers that made the biggest impact on the world of film and how they might impact us in 2009.

Our good friend Frosty at Collider caught up with Warner Bros. Chief Alan Horn this week at the premiere of Yes Man. And instead of asking him about Yes Man 2 (which we’re all hoping for), he asked about a bunch of silly superhero movies…

You are never going to believe who’s playing Catwoman!

Rachel Weisz as Cat Woman? Robert Pattinson as The Joker? Is anyone taking this seriously?

Like many of you, I was excited about The Dark Knight finally coming to Blu-ray and DVD. But as you may know by now, the release’s special features are oddly void of some things that fans might have enjoyed…

Thanks to a report from a Warner Bros. DVD launch event for The Dark Knight, we now know when fans will get their shot at asking Christopher Nolan about the next Batman flick.

Nobody will ever truly replace Christopher Reeve as the image of Superman, but Brandon Routh has earned DC Comics’ respect enough to keep the role of the Man of Steel.

My weekly read-through of the pages of Production Weekly have yielded a few interesting factoids about some upcoming productions, including Batman 3.

They just can’t leave well enough alone, can they? According to a report form Robert over at IESB yesterday, 20th Century Fox co-chairman Tom Rothman is still eyeing a reboot of the Daredevil franchise.

George Clooney is one of the most sought after actors in Hollywood today. With titles under his belt like O Brother, Where Art Thou?, Michael Clayton, Ocean’s Eleven, and an impressive stint on the medical drama, ER, it’s hard to believe he ever made crap like Batman & Robin.

The success of The Dark Knight has spawned a DC comics film orgy. Warner Bros. lets us know which members of the superhero gang will be invited sooner than later.

The folks at Warner Bros. continue to remind us that Christopher Nolan hasn’t even decided to do another movie, let alone choose cast for one. But as always, that could change on a dime, especially if loose-lipped executives continue to chat with the equally loose-lipped Michael Caine.

Over the past few months the internet has been spinning ’round and ’round about what Christopher Nolan may or may not do with his next Batman film. Today, we get some news about one character that isn’t coming back.

Cher’s in the news again, rumored to be considered for the juicily sexy role of Catwoman opposite Christian Bale in the next Batman.

In 2005 and 2006, after a long hiatus with their superhero franchises, Warner Bros. put their two most iconic heroes in the hands of two up-and-coming directors. Since then, the two franchises have gone in different directions, a fact that is finally teaching WB some hard lessons.

I am thinking of starting up a rehabilitation center for people who are addicted to speculating about what may or may not happen with Christopher Nolan’s Batman franchise. I feel that I would be a great fit to head up such an effort, as I would also be a client.

So far the battle lines have been drawn and the draw-bridge is up on the castle that holds all the answers for fans of The Dark Knight — no one is talking about another film. Fans appear to be excited, though.
