Robert Pattinson will reunite with Christopher Nolan, 5 years after Tenet

He joins a crazy cast, with Matt Damon, Tom Holland, Lupita Nyong'o, Anne Hathaway and Zendaya.

A way to close the loop? 5 years ago, when Christopher Nolan finished Tenethis sci-fi film that goes back in time, the star Robert Pattinson gives him a book of Robert Oppenheimer's speeches as an end-of-filming gift (because the director often referred to it to explain the concept of his film during production). In the process, encouraged by this book, the filmmaker launched into a major biopic on the father of the atomic bomb, which would earn him a shower of Oscars.

So obviously, when thinking about his next film – the subject of which we don't know – Christopher Nolan called Robert Pattinson. Too busy to attend Oppenheimer at the time, the actor The Batman this time will be part of the casting of the new film by the English director for Universal Pictures.

A reunion for Nolan and Pattinson, five years later Tenet. The American actor joins an already impressive cast, made up of Matt Damon, Tom Holland, Lupita Nyong'o, Anne Hathaway And Zendaya.

Filming is expected to begin in the first half of 2025. Robert Pattinson found a place in his very busy schedule for next year, he who also has to film The Batman 2 and the indie thriller Primetime for A24, not to mention the promotion of Mickey 17the new Bong Joon-Ho, expected in the spring…
