The film, which is written by Nolan, will use a mixture of IMAX and 70mm film, which is something he’s become famous for.

The director first made an impact in 2001 with his indie film, Memento. His next film, Insomnia, was also a modest hit. but it wasn’t until Batman Begins hit theaters in 2005 that Nolan became a box office force in his own right. The Prestige was Nolan’s last movie to gross under $200 million worldwide.

Nolan will produce Tenet along with his partner Emma Thomas will production scheduled to start later this year. The movie is set to hit theaters on July 17, 2020.
