Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer ended up being a reasonably large hit for the filmmaker and for Universal Pictures, and as you would possibly anticipate, everybody desires to know what the filmmaker will do subsequent. During an interview with Variety, the director was lately requested if he is aware of what sort of film he desires to make subsequent and if he’d be open to returning to franchise filmmaking.
While Nolan doesn’t reveal what he’s doing subsequent, he does say that he’s open to something. He defined:
“Ideas come from everywhere. I’ve done a remake, I’ve made adaptations from comic books and novels, and I’ve written original screenplays. I’m open to anything. But as a writer and director, whatever I do, I have to feel like I own it completely. I have to make it original to me: The initial seed of an idea may come from elsewhere, but it has to go through my fingers on a keyboard and come out through my eyes alone.”
The director was then requested about Warner Bros. and if there was any unhealthy blood between them. He famously left the studio and went to Universal Pictures after WB’s focus turned to streaming through the pandemic. In response to the query, Nolan stated it was “water under the bridge.”
When requested if he would work with WB once more, he stated: “Oh yeah, absolutely. Pam [Abdy] and Mike [De Luca] and [David] Zaslav, they’re trying to do some great things with that studio, which is encouraging to see.”
It’ll be fascinating to see what Nolan finally ends up doing subsequent.
