Well, we heard two of those could potentially be true.
io9 got word from a reliable source that Nolans film is a vampire movie set in the 1920s.
We know what youre thinking: Isnt Ryan Coogler already making that movie?
Yes, he is.Its calledSinnersand its out in March.
Hes not beholden to what other people are doing.
Plus, its not like period horror movies are all over the nations multiplexes these days or ever.
Theres plenty of room for two or maybe even more of these.
io9 reached out to Universal for confirmation or denial of the rumor and didnt hear back as of publication.
Well update the post if or when we do.
So is Nolans latest a period vampire movie?
Probably, but we cant say for sure.
It stars Matt Damon and, now, Tom Hollandwholl reportedly shoot the film alongsideSpider-Man 4andAvengers: Doomsday.
We also know its being released by Universal, in IMAX, on July 17, 2026.
Lets be honest though.
We all want this rumor to be true, right?
That sounds like the perfect night at the movies.
Lets cross our fingers… but dont show the vampires.
