Christopher Nolan's Next Film Set for 2026 Release with Matt Damon in Talks to Star

The acclaimed director will return to Universal Pictures for his upcoming project, following the success of Oppenheimer.

Christopher Nolan's new movie is slated for a July 17, 2026 release, with filming expected to begin in early 2025.
Universal Pictures will distribute the film, continuing their successful partnership after Oppenheimer's critical and commercial acclaim.
Matt Damon is in negotiations to take a leading role, marking his third collaboration with Nolan following Interstellar and Oppenheimer.
Plot details remain tightly under wraps, but the project is confirmed not to be an adaptation of the British TV series The Prisoner.
Nolan will write and produce the film alongside Emma Thomas under their Syncopy banner, maintaining his signature creative control.
