Christopher Nolan Denies Rumors of Directing Next Bond Film

Despite the success of 'Oppenheimer', Nolan's next project remains unknown as Eon Productions stays silent on the future of the Bond franchise.

Christopher Nolan has denied rumors that he will be directing the next James Bond film, stating there is 'no truth' to the speculation.
Nolan has previously expressed his admiration for the Bond series and admitted its influence on his work, particularly on films like 'Inception' and 'Tenet'.
Despite the rumors, Nolan has not confirmed what his next project will be following the success of 'Oppenheimer', which has grossed over $950 million globally and become the highest-grossing biopic in history.
Eon Productions, the studio behind the Bond franchise, has not made any announcements regarding the successor to Daniel Craig or when production on the 26th Bond film might begin.
Nolan has stated that while he would consider directing a Bond film under the right circumstances, he would need to be 'really needed' and 'really wanted' in terms of what he could bring to the character.
