Christopher Nolan to Direct Action Thriller ‘Dunkirk’ For Warner Bros. (EXCLUSIVE)


Justin Kroll
Film Reporter @krolljvar

Christopher Nolan looks to be headed to France during World War II for his next project.

Sources tell Variety that Nolan will direct “Dunkirk” from his own original screenplay as his next project. Insiders say the yet-to-be cast unknowns will lead the cast, but that Mark Rylance, Kenneth Branagh and Tom Hardy are currently in talks to join the ensemble.

Nolan will also produce the film with his longtime producing partner Emma Thomas.

The story is set during the legendary evacuation of the northern French city during WWII. Nolan and his casting department recently began testing teenagers in London for lead roles, but the director also wanted to nail down some choices for the few adult roles in the film before the holiday.

“We are thrilled to be continuing our collaboration with Christopher Nolan, a singular filmmaker who has created some of the most critically acclaimed and commercially successful films of all time,” Greg Silverman, President, Creative Development and Worldwide Production said. “‘Dunkirk’ is a gripping and powerful story and we are excited to see Chris, Emma and their cast realize it on the big screen.”

Warner Bros. has dated the film for July 21, 2017. The large-scale production will be shot on a combination of IMAX 65mm and 65mm large format film for maximum image quality and high impact immersion. Shooting will begin in May using many of the real locations of the true-life events, which form the background for the story.

Rylance, who received a Golden Globe nomination for “Bridge of Spies,” will next rejoin Steven Spielberg in “The BFG,” slated for 2017. He is repped by Hamilton Hodell.

Hardy, who is repped by CAA, can currently be seen in Fox and New Regency’s “The Revenant” while Branagh most recently helmed “Cinderella” for Disney.

Im surprised there is no apparent sci-fi angle this time, interstellar probably burned him out.

Gonna be interesting if he can pull the emotion needed for a WWII film, which is something he's not known for

back.

This, Batman v. Superman, Rogue One and the next PTA film are all gonna be shot and presented on 70MM

------------------------------------------
America from 9:00 on: https://youtu.be/GUwLCQU10KQ

But Dunkirk says 65MM Large Format, so it should be at 2.20:1 , which I'm fine with. (That's the same aspect that 1977's Star Wars had in 70MM.)

Batman v. Superman = 1.44:1 in Imax, 2.35:1 in digtal? So not all shot on 65MM - think Batman TDK adding top/bottom area but composed to be shown on 2.35:1

Rogue One: Also 2.35:1

>and the next PTA film are >all gonna be shot and presented on 70MM

So if your fine watching films in a multiplex with extra masking and/or blank areas on the screen then more power to you. You'll likely see little improvement unless your at a house with real 70mm equipment and a screen wide enough to see it.

Batman v. Superman.

------------------------------------------
America from 9:00 on: https://youtu.be/GUwLCQU10KQ

Those will be 2.35:1 and 2.20:1 so they'll fill your local multiplex much better than QT's H8 which is a stoopidly wide 2.76:1.

Even Star Wars TFA at 2.39:1 had masking issues when I saw it (because the multiplex's don't have curtains or basic masking systems anymore. And the usher isn't going to get on at 30 foot ladder to add top masking by hand.)

Shit will be beautiful regardless.

As long as it's not 4:3 (1.33:1) I'm good.

>As long as it's not 4:3 (1.33:1) I'm good.

Academy ratio is fine if your seeing it on an academy screen.

There's just very few screens to see truly wide or tall films at anymore, so I hate when film makers start fucking around.

Literally anything shot on IMAX, I see on a real IMAX.

But I get your beef. 1.44:1 that's not IMAX is just not cinematic to me. That shit was for TV back in the day and they used that aspect ratio in pan and scan/TV version of movies and it pissed me off.

Haven't seen anything on this yet. PTA got the ball rolling on this shit with the first 70mm joint in almost two decades. I guess QT is getting more credit cause he kicked in the door and got it in way more theaters...

I remember the ArcLight in LA was showing Inherent Vice in 70MM and ZooTown specifically said that it made the slow push ins at points jarring since it was shot in 35MM.

------------------------------------------
America from 9:00 on: https://youtu.be/GUwLCQU10KQ

Alright, thanks. I'll keep my eyes peeled for that shit.

I don't really get the point of upconverting native 35mm for 70mm presentations, but I guess it was pretty common in the 70s. I saw Inherent Vice presented on 35mm film and it had a great feel.

The Master in pure 70mm projection, however, was probably the best looking thing I've ever seen in a theater.

and nolan hasnt let me down yet

Thought for sure it would be some massive sci-fi movie. Im a History major and HUGE World War II buff so im excited to see what he does with this. I will admit Nolan is not the best at shooting gun-action or action scenes in general(thought it was the only weak spot in Inception) but im excited so how he has improved.

http://screencrush.com/rumor-dunkirk-teaser-suicide-squad/

Christopher Nolan is still in production on Dunkirk, a new drama that reunites the director with Cillian Murphy and Tom Hardy to recount the riveting true story of the famous evacuation of Allied forces during World War II. Although the film doesn’t hit theaters until next July, a new rumor suggests that we may see the first teaser for Nolan’s latest as soon as this week — and you don’t have to stretch your imagination very far to figure out where it might pop up.

The rumor originates at TrailerTrack (via Heroic Hollywood), which claims that the first teaser for Dunkirk will hit theaters this weekend with Suicide Squad. That makes some sense as Warner Bros. is handling the release of both films, and thanks to his Dark Knight trilogy, there’s a sizable overlap between fans of Nolan and fans of WB’s DC universe.

12 months out from release may seem a bit early to reveal a teaser, but WB debuted the first teaser for Interstellar in December 2013, almost a full year before that film hit theaters in November 2014. The studio took a similar approach to his Batman films, with the first teasers premiering about a year ahead of each film’s respective release.

And since Nolan has been in production on Dunkirk since late May, he probably has enough footage to throw a solid teaser together — if it even features actual footage. Who knows.

Suicide Squad hits theaters this Friday, August 5, which may or may not also be the day that we see the first teaser for Dunkirk. We’ll find out soon enough.

Love that Warner Bros leaves Nolan the f**k alone and just lets him make whatever he wants, unlike other movies.

WB gets in it's own way so much that even with all the clout Nolan has he's gonna get fucked eventually.

Not a huge Nolan fan but I love the fact that he gets studios to let him shoot and exhibit his shit on crazy formats like 70mm IMAX film (which apparently this will show in as well). Saw Interstellar in that format and it was glorious...

I'm intrigued by this shit tho.

Whenever Christopher Nolan has a summer blockbuster on the horizon, Warner Brothers often finds a way to screen select IMAX footage ahead of the year’s big Christmas blockbuster. Fans got to see some of the first footage from “The Dark Knight” before “I Am Legend” back in 2007, while “The Dark Knight Rises” opening airplane sequence was screened before “Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol” four years later. It looks like Warner Bros. is keeping with tradition, as seven minutes of Nolan’s “Dunkirk” will be attached to select “Rogue One” screenings.

READ MORE: Christopher Nolan Reportedly Releasing ‘Dunkirk’ Two Days Early on 35mm and 70mm

As reported by /Film earlier today, the seven-minute long “Dunkirk” prologue will screen ahead of the “Star Wars” blockbuster at 70mm IMAX locations in 2D. The bad news is that means it will only be showing in a handful of theaters across the country. Cinephiles in Los Angeles, Alabama and Iowa are in luck, while those in New York City will have to wait a little bit longer. It remains to be seen if the footage will screen in digital IMAX theaters, though we wouldn’t count on it knowing Nolan’s love for celluloid.


Tom Hardy, Cillian Murphy, Kenneth Branagh, Mark Rylance and James D’arcy star in “Dunkirk,” which Nolan also wrote. Check out the locations where the footage will screen below. The film opens nationwide July 21, 2017.

The following theatres will be playing Rogue One: A Star Wars Story in IMAX 2D on IMAX 70mm projection (please note this list is subject to change).

This feels like ideal material for him but Im not exactly sure why. Also, is Tom Hardy not the lead?

“The film is told from three points of view. The air (planes), the land (on the beach) and the sea (the evacuation by the navy). For the soldiers embarked in the conflict, the events took place on different temporalities. On land, some stayed one week stuck on the beach. On the water, the events lasted a maximum day; And if you were flying to Dunkirk, the British spitfires would carry an hour of fuel. To mingle these different versions of history, one had to mix the temporal strata. Hence the complicated structure; Even if the story, once again, is very simple.”

“This is an essential moment in the history of the Second World War. If this evacuation had not been a success, Great Britain would have been obliged to capitulate. And the whole world would have been lost, or would have known a different fate: the Germans would undoubtedly have conquered Europe, the US would not have returned to war,” he said. “It is a true point of rupture in war and in history of the world. A decisive moment. And the success of the evacuation allowed Churchill to impose the idea of a moral victory, which allowed him to galvanize his troops like civilians and to impose a spirit of resistance while the logic of this sequence should have been that of surrender. Militarily it is a defeat; On the human plane it is a colossal victory.”

Copped IMAX 70MM tix even though I'm seeing it in IMAX 70MM tomorrow.

http://www.nolanfans.com/2017/06/24/list-of-us-and-canada-70mm-dunkirk-locations-hidden-on-official-website/

A NolanFans user found a list of US and Canada 70mm theatre Dunkirk locations hidden in the source code on the Official Website for Dunkirk. Yesterday we tweeted that the ticket sales for 70mm showings of Dunkirk have been pushed back to July 5, but until now nobody knew which locations would actually have 70mm.

The list includes Standard 70mm (5-perf/70mm) theaters as well as IMAX 70mm (15-perf/70mm) theaters. Many of you know the difference between the two formats, but for those of you that do not, we’ll give you a brief overview.

Standard 65/70mm film has been around for well over a century. However, it wasn’t more widely or popularly used until the 1950s. Many classic films, like Lawrence of Arabia and 2001: A Space Odyssey, were filmed and presented on 70mm, but the format stopped being used by the 70s. Sometimes the format is abbreviated as 5/70 as each frame of film is 5 perforations tall and 70mm wide. That translates to 0.9 inches by 2 inches. You’ll commonly see 65mm used interchangeably with 70mm, and that’s because 65mm is the shooting format, and 70mm is the projecting format. When projected, 5/70 typically has an aspect ratio of 2.20:1.

IMAX 65/70mm film was developed by the IMAX Corporation in the late 60s. Unlike Standard 70mm, which runs vertically through a camera or projector, IMAX 70mm runs horizontally. It also uses 15 perforations per frame, as opposed to 5, thus giving it a larger picture area. Sometimes the format is abbreviated as 15/70. Its overall size is 2 inches by 2.75 inches. The format was commonly only used for IMAX nature and science documentary films, but in 2008 Christopher Nolan pioneered its use for Hollywood blockbusters on The Dark Knight. When projected, 15/70 typically has an aspect ratio of 1.44:1.

570v1570

Dunkirk was shot using both formats. Though there has been no official confirmation, it is believed approximately 75% of the movie was shot on IMAX 65mm film with the remainder being filmed on Standard 65mm film. This ratio is larger than any of Nolan’s other uses of IMAX, and Nolan’s first film shot entirely on 65mm.

So enough with the history lesson, here’s the list of theaters showing Dunkirk on 70mm:

And when it shows up Netflix at the wrong aspect ratio an in low bitrate "4k" don't sound impressed.

Also - we don't have any 15/70 locations in San Diego - have to go to LA for that.

Probably not, but it's pretty wild to think Brooklyn would have an IMAX screen, muchless in this location, given what the Albee Square Mall once was roughly 30 years ago. I wonder how that IMAX screen there compares to the infamous one near Lincoln Square.

Hopefully this reply doesn't derail from this post too much since I don't have much interest in the flick mentioned in this thread, but I couldn't pass up responding to the news of Brooklyn having an IMAX screen.

On the best IMAX in the East Coast.

Not Nolan's best, bit good God this is good. This is an experience through and through. The suspense kicks in within the first 2 minutes and never let's you go.

Not much in the way of character development, but you empathize with all of the characters as they're all about to be slaughtered.

There's some stuff in here that others are gonna try to replicate. This puts you in the shit. Only way to experience it is in 70MM IMAX.

If it's playing in IMAX 70MM, it's a must see. Seriously seek it out.

Will add this to the itinerary, just wish it didn't mean having to wait a week.


Also wonder how long it'll be 'til we get one here in Omaha, I'm still a little surprised the Alamo didn't come with one when it opened a little over a year ago.

If life is stupendous one cannot also demand that it should be easy. - Robert Musil

...how self-importantly perilous his film is.

except it's not.

BOOOOM....BOOOOM. BOOOOM....BOOOOM.

this flick was two hours straight of men frightfully looking up at the sky and jumping off boats... and getting really wet. i kept waiting for real danger...real despair...something or someone in fatigues to care about in this embellished story about a "miraculous evacuation"..

none of it ever came.

the ariel/dogfighting scenes were beautifully shot though. very methodical and smart too. hardy in a spitfire calculating miles per gallon >>>> cruise in an F-14 switching to guns.

still, the antagonist was essentially a single german luftwaffe? the cropduster coming after cary grant in nbnw had more suspense than anything nolan threw at us.

i suppose brits will catch the feels for this the way murica did saving private ryan.

i keep reading reviews about the IMAX and the 70 MILLIMETERS OF MOVIE but not much about the movie being interesting or good beyond the technical stuff and the NEED to see it a certain way. why would i bother seeing it if not in 70 FEET OF IMAX or whatever?

bah.
_______________________

In terms of the historical significance? My understanding is that Hitler had half of the British army dead to rights trapped on a beach. If they weren't evacuated....The Germans probably roll into England and conquer Europe. I'm curious as to why your tone seems dismissive. Ie 'Embellished story'. Putting 'miraculous evacuation' in quotes seemingly implying that it wasn't miraculous. The Brits 'catching feels'.

No snark here....just wondering your take.

i'm saying nolan didn't make me feel any suspense or despair for scores of cornered troops. a few guys running away and getting shot in the back by a sniper two minutes into the film was about it for me.

if you read most of the reviews, they're all about, "OMG the spectacle and imagery!!!"

nolan overcompensated for his weak storytelling by having a big soundtrack and big visuals. it's basically a giant circle jerk to 70MM.

but this film, in theaters, was distressing as fuck.

maybe I'd agree with you if I had read the wiki synopsis already and watched it for the first time on my aunt's kitchen tv while making casserole.

like I said below it's not necessarily a great film but it's definitely a great movie.

Someone else mentioned that watching this movie in our living rooms would be kinda pointless and I lean towards agreeing to this.

It's definitely an incredible and unique viewing experience in the theatre....I guess this movie is just extremely visceral. Probably sounds cliche but it's more like 'an experience' than it is 'a film'. Almost like a ride of sorts.

Another thing that occurred to me....it's basically a 90 minute version of the first 20 minutes of Saving Private Ryan. I absolutely LOVE the first 20 minutes of SPR...and kinda think the rest of the movie contradicts it's first act. Spielberg spent 20 minutes deconstructing war films and taking out the hero/villain narrative and presented ambiguous chaos. Then RECONSTRUCTED all those typical war movie tropes with waving flags and hero/villain and virtue/evil narratives. Nolan committed stronger to the same aim that Speilberg had for SPR.

In anycase....I see Dunkirk as an experiment of sorts. And I think it was successful in accomplishing what it set out to do. But again...I won't be watching this on netflix with earbuds.

Beautifully shot and incredibly intense. Some of the scenes in the various boats & ships had me ready to crawl out of my skin.

I think it's a testament to the film that I barely understood any of the spoken dialogue (due to the incredibly thick British accents) but I still had a great time watching it.

How come they didn't shoot the sailboats, assuming that they were trying to help their enemies?

Oh also it's assumed Tom Hardy becomes a POW and dies?

My best guess would be allocation of resources. Remember...those planes only had about an hour of flight time plus limited ammunition. I would guess that they'd be ordered to save ammunition for the minesweepers and the rest of the bigger boats. Also, small targets harder to hit. They definitely wouldn't waste a bomb on them. And the bullets are probably best saved for air to air combat instead of shooting up a small sailboat. Their priority was probably to bomb warships and shoot down enemy planes. So wasting bullets on sailboats would make you vulnerable to Allied planes.

There seems to be alot of mystery surrounding Hitler's decision to halt the attacks. I've searched around online and there's no definitive answer that I can find. A couple theories I found: The German tank invasion of France was SO successful that the infantry fell far behind leaving the tanks without resources/fuel and troop support. The Germans figured the shallow waters of Dunkirk would keep the Brits trapped alot longer...so they thought they could afford to wait for the infantry to catch up. There's also the suggestion that Hitler thought the 400,000 Brits were doomed regardless so he could use them as bait to draw in the British Navy and inflict even more damage with the u-boats and bombers.

War buffs can correct me....but from what I can tell....Dunkirk was Hitler's second biggest mistake behind, of course, the way he invaded Russia.

Different movie but also depicting Dunkirk:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QijbOCvunfU

400,000 troops trapped on a beach. That's the population of a small city. Unimaginable.

Dunkirk is a technical marvel and I think it's Nolan's best precisely because it omits what he consistently fails at imo. This is basically the perfect movie suited for him.

But to be honest....that 5 minute clip I posted from 'Atonement' had a bigger impact on me than anything in the Nolan movie.

People are complaining about "not caring" and wanting backstories but I cared a lot more precisely because they had no backstory. Action dictated who these characters are. Seeing as how revealing character through exposition instead of action was my chief complaint about a large number of Nolan's movies, I was thrilled to see just how barebones he went in terms of dialogue. The movie is better for it.

The tinkering with the timelines, another Nolan obsession, pays off beautifully here too. I really can't think of a single moment in this movie that doesn't hit home or pay off nicely.

I'd agree that this particular movie might not be 'conservative' but the Batman movies and Interstellar kinda targeted current trends in the left. The Bain takeover of Gotham most definitely referenced 'occupy wall street' and in Interstellar, the protagonist objects to his daughter's post-modernist educators who questioned the validity of the moon landing and the anti-science trends portrayed in the future.

I remember him saying on the press tour for Interstellar how mad he was that the government doesn't properly fund NASA and that we should keep moving forward in space exploration.

Given the stuff he dabbles in with Dark Knight on finding the good in humanity with the whole thing with the two boats, I'd also say not.

America from 9:00 on: https://youtu.be/GUwLCQU10KQ

I screwed up and got tickets to the digital IMAX not the 70mm IMAX but the sound and vision was still super crazy effective. I haven't been that stressed out by a movie in a while. almost as if nolan got to take the bank heist scene from Dark Knight and extrapolate it out into a full feature film.

I really, really, really enjoyed this experience, but again, it could be a total flop on a home television. Almost every bit of it that I enjoyed was because I was enveloped by the screen or the plane sound effects were so loud and wonderfully mixed I felt like it was MY seat that was rattling around in a cockpit.

and damn that was intense

i agree with some of you in that this won't translate well outside of the theater - i would probably not watch this again on a screen smaller than 50"

that being said, the tension was REAL throughout - and i LOVED that most of the main characters remained nameless throughout.. they barely knew one another (different battalions etc) and it was really something to reflect on that we (audience) barely knew them too.. we just knew the intensity of that situation..

the use of a non-linear timeline was dope too.

and again, wow at the 70mm IMAX.. totally the right format for this film

visually this was the best use of traditional film since The Master five years ago. and Nolan's setpiece prowess displays itself again; the dogfights are magnificent, but my favorite was the haunting torpedo attack of the destroyer.

I didn't mind the nameless characters -- I saw them as totems for all sides of the event. the humiliated British soldier who had just been smacked senseless by Germany and only wanted to survive. the French who were saving British lives (opening scene), with very little gratitude (sacrificing the masquerading Frenchman to save a boat full of British). and the Royal Air Force, stuck between saving themselves for the bigger battle ahead, or running out of gas to assist their stranded countrymen.

as mentioned though, the last 45 minutes are sort of a mess. lots of war cliches and empty bombast. sucks out the intensity of the first hour.

Which is exactly what Nolan was going for (and coincidentally aligns with his best strengths while mitigating his weaknesses). I certainly enjoyed it for what it was.

saw it on liemax, I know it's nowhere near as great as 70mm is supposed to be but it still was a sensory overload from start to finish. Almost too much at times actually, though that could've been the way the theater's sound was set up.

I was expecting some rah-rah Brits are the bravest stuff, and there was some of that, although Nolan threw in a bit of subtlety too (eg the young soldier's reaction to the Churchill speech). The (huge) contribution of the French was shown almost elliptically, which I fully expected. For that matter the role of any non-white soldiers was basically ignored.

Nolan has been criticized for the conservative views that sometimes emerge in his movies (TDK being the prime example), and it's definitely present here. The way the movie presents the entire operation as driven by the ingenious (white) British spirit, definitely felt like something I'd expect more from a basic Hollywood script. I lived in the UK a few years, and the people I met never struck me as being that full of their country's glory. If anything they rejoiced in making fun of themselves before you even got a chance to. But I guess Brexit voters aren't the only ones who need reassurance that yes, their country is as great as they think. Details and nuances be damned.

Still, the movie really was astounding at times, as a purely cinematic spectacle. It never lets up and gives a good idea of what survival in wartime can be like. And I really thought the faceless nature of the enemy was a homerun, right down to the way the German soldiers are shown at the end and of course the terrifying Stuka raids throughout.

------------------------------
For the record, my teams:
MLB: Mets / Soccer: PSG
NCAA BB: Arizona / NCAA FB: Michigan
NBA: Spurs / NFL: Jets

Since you're basically dropped in a 'HOLY SHIT WE ARE ALL GONNA FUCKING DIE' situation where motherfuckers are actually dying left and right with a relentless score behind it there's no time to delve into character motivation/history outside of survival. It was emotionally cold but it served a purpose when life is worth a bag of skittles and the haunting look in the soldiers eyes to just make it home gives you all you need to work with as an audience.

Nolan proves he's one of the best technical filmmakers out there; this is pure cinema in a way I haven't seen in a minute (probably this and Mad Max)

This shit ruined my entire Christmas.
Nigga, they paid Tom Hardy for literally 5 steps on dry land.
FUCK THIS MOVIE.
nice visuals i guess.
