As his loyal fans say, “In Nolan we trust.” Writer-director-producer Christopher Nolan is one of those rare Hollywood artists who are yet to make a flop, constantly delivering engaging, highly creative and outstanding content.
Tenet is no different. The film comes out in July 2020 and, despite the relatively near release date, few details are known about the plot. That is to say, Tenet does not have an official synopsis as of the time of writing, with the official IMDB page only saying that it is “an action epic revolving around international espionage, time travel, and evolution.”
What Tenet does have is a first trailer, which you can find at the bottom of the page. First off, the BRAAAMs are back! Secondly, this is the most confusing, dazzling and beautifully choreographed movie trailer of this past year. The emphasis falls on “confusing,” though: while it includes enough dialog, it’s hard to make out what it’s really about.
Not that this is a bad thing or, at least, it’s not something Nolan’s fans aren’t used to. Whatever the trailer loses for being too vague (which admittedly is not much), it wins by including the absolute most kickass car chase you’ve ever seen.
Nolan has a reputation for delivering superb stunts, many times shot traditionally and relying on CGI as little as possible. He seems to have outdone himself this time, showing a Saab 9-5 defying the law of physics as it flips over in reverse, while other cars on the highway (including one carrying John David Washington and Robert Pattinson’s characters) are shown moving forward in time.
The entire scene is so visually striking that it may require double or even triple viewing to take everything in. But don’t take our word for it, check it out.
Starring Washington (BlackKklansman), Pattinson, Aaron Taylor-Johnson Elizabeth Debicki, Kenneth Branagh, and Michael Caine, Tenet was shot on a combination of 70MM and IMAX cameras, and saw Nolan working again with Dunkirk cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema. It drops in theaters in July 2020.
IMAX versions of the trailer are supposedly playing ahead of Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker screenings in select theaters.
