Fantasy Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey

Yeah why would Nolan cast Murphy instead of Daniel Craig. It’s not like Craig played an iconic role that would make him perfect meta casting that would mirror the original or anything.
 
Until Nolan himself conforms it, this, Prisoner stuff is just rumor. I wouldn't get my hopes up.
 
I am not trying to tell anybody what to do. But the Nolan/ Prisoner thing is something that consistently pops up when he is in between projects. Old Rumor.
 
You're taking Sawyer's reply too seriously. :hehe:
 
 
The Prisoner or a horror film pls.
 
I prefer another original sci-fi concept, especially if it has mystery elements. Otherwise give me a western or horror, but of course I'll take anything.
 
I've got a feeling it's The Prisoner. I don't know why but Damon being in talks for the lead just makes me lean that way. Could be anything of course.
 
Why do people think it's The Prisoner all of a sudden? I know he was developing a script, but that was 15+ years ago. Has there been any actual development on that front or anything to hint he might be working on it again?

Mostly cause it’s Universal, they own the rights and I think put the kibosh on it all those years ago. Of course, now Universal would give him carte blanche on anything he wants.

I would personally love it to be. But who knows.

Hmmm that makes some sense I guess. I'm sure it would be interesting and I'd be down for that but I'd prefer something original and I think Nolan does too, especially right after a book adaptation.
 
Yep was gonna say because Universal and some other supposed leak that was floating around out there...BUT, I take it back. From THR article:

Although details are being kept in the bunker, sources say the project is not a big-screen take on 1960s British series The Prisoner, an endeavor Nolan contemplated in the 2000s.
 
I’m pleased that Nolan is switching things up yet again with his choice of lead actor. I was irked when one of the box office pundits made it sound like a given that it would be Cillian again after Oppenheimer’s success, when it’s never really been his way to use the same lead twice (aside from the Dark Knight Trilogy).

Borys also said it was a father-son story and then immediately walked that back. Could be wrong here too.
 
Considering the studio and choice of lead actor, it would be funny if Nolan just said **** it and decided to write himself a Bourne movie.

Nolan: *hands a script for a Jason Bourne sequel on the desk of the head of Universal* Greenlight this! Now!

Universal CEO: Yes sir!
 
It'll be a Bourne movie where it's an indictment of all the previous Bourne movies done as a half-assed musical and court room drama and in the end he dies. :o

Nolan just sent assassins to your home for even jokingly comparing him to that man.

You have 90 seconds to flee.
 
My mind is going crazy wondering what the film is about haha. So cool to see Damon likely being in the lead role here.

I do agree it would be great to see Bale and Nolan team up again in the future! Heck, maybe Bale willl pop up in this one.
