Christopher Nolan is one of the few directors in Hollywood that can open a movie based on the strength of their personal brand alone, with each one of his new releases becoming a cinematic event. As has become standard, the upcoming Tenet is still shrouded in mystery, but looks to be the culmination of his recent diversions into other genres over the last decade.

Following the mind-bending Inception, thought-provoking sci-fi Interstellar and unconventionally-structured war epic Dunkirk, Tenet looks to combine elements of all three, with the general consensus being that the espionage thriller's plot centers around the use of time travel to prevent World War III.

As a self-confessed James Bond fan, Tenet will see Nolan put his own unique stamp on the globe-trotting spy flick, in what is without a doubt one of the most highly-anticipated movies of 2020. He hasn't made a bad movie yet and is quietly amassing an all-timer of a filmography, and based on the trailer alone it looks like the filmmaker's singular vision is going to put an inimitable new twist on a familiar formula once again.

I don't do social media, so like or follow me in person but please maintain a safe distance or the authorities will be notified. Don't snap me though, I'll probably break. I was once labelled a misogynist on this very site in a twenty paragraph-long rant for daring to speak ill of the Twilight franchise. I stand by what I said, it's crap.
