Nolan Goes to WWII in 2017


Christopher Nolan goes back to Europe with his new film, Dunkirk.

Set during the Battle of Dunkirk in 1940, Nolan’s original screenplay will center around the evacuation of the titular French city of Allied soldiers and citizens. And I now know more about this WWII event than I did before.

According to Variety, Dunkirk will feature unknowns as the lead players but with backup by Nolan stalwart Tom Hardy and Kenneth Branagh. It will be produced by long-time partner and wife Emma Thomas and distributed by Warner Brothers in July 2017 and will be shot in IMAX.

Could this be Nolan’s Saving Private Ryan? Let’s hope so come early 2018.
