Director Updates
Chris Nolan’s next movie at Warner Bros. is INCEPTION, a sci-fi picture set “within the architecture of the mind” and will star Leonardo DiCaprio with Marion Cotillard, Ellen Page and Cillian Murphy, and is based on his own original script. The movie shoots in June and will be released July 2010. His deal to direct INCEPTION is likely to include a wager to direct a third BATMAN movie which we expected to be released in 2012.
