We can stop referring toChristopher Nolan’s untitled next film as such and start referring to it asTenet, as of today. Filming on the event film starts today with the production embarking on a seven-country tour that will use a combination of IMAX and 70mm film cameras. After working with editorLee Smithfor the better part of the last 15 years, Nolan will now collaborate withHereditaryeditorJennifer LameforTenet. Nolan produces alongsideEmma ThomaswithThomas Hayslip(Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom)as executive producer.
Here’s everything wedoknow aboutTenetso far:
Title:Tenetis, by definition, “a principle or belief, especially one of the main principles of a religion or philosophy.” That’s vague enough of a title to be a film about just about anything, but it’s also very “Nolan-esque.“Memento,Inception,Dunkirk(okay, maybe not that last one) are all very general in concept but carry specific meaning in the movie itself, once you’ve seen it.
Plot: Described as a globe-trotting adventure that dabbles in international espionage with shades of the mind-bendingInceptionbut also somehow involves the time continuum a laInterstellar, the short answer is that we still don’t really know whatTenetis about. Stay tuned.

Cast: Led byJohn David Washington(BlacKkKlansman) withRobert Pattinson(Twilight) andElizabeth Debicki(Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2), new additions to the international ensemble includeDimple Kapadia(Bobby),Aaron Taylor-Johnson(Kick-Ass), andClémence Poésy(In Bruges), withMichael Caine(The Dark Knighttrilogy) andKenneth Branagh(Dunkirk).
Crew: Director of photographyHoyte van Hoytema(Dunkirk), production designer Nathan Crowley(Dunkirk), costume designerJeffrey Kurland(Inception, Dunkirk), and visual effects supervisorAndrew Jacksonwith a score composed byLudwig Göransson(Black Panther).
