Christopher Nolan’s Tenet described as “time-bending quantum cold war thriller”

May 16, 2020 by Samuel Brace

Christopher Nolan’s Tenet has a new description revealed which calls the film a “time-bending” quantum cold war thriller.

As with all Christopher Nolan films, details regarding the plot of his latest effort Tenet are being kept very secret. The film starring John David Washington and Robert Pattinson is due for release this July but what is the film about?

So far all we know is that its an espionage thriller which may or may not include time travel – very Nolan indeed. Now we have received a few more details which, while not making things any clearer, will only add fuel to fan anticipation.

Thanks to behind the scenes book listing on Amazon, The Secrets of Tenet: Inside Christopher Nolan’s Quantum Cold War, a new phrase has been added to the mix. What is meant by “quantum cold war” is anyone’s guess.

The description goes on to say: “FROM DIRECTOR CHRISTOPHER NOLAN comes a mind-blowing espionage thriller so unique that audiences will puzzle over its intricacies for years to come. The Secrets of Tenet takes readers on an exclusive journey into Nolan’s time-bending masterpiece, offering rare insights into all aspects of its creation.”

It also describes Tenet as “a film guaranteed to linger in the imagination long into the future . . . and perhaps the past.”

So, we can certainly expect a lot of time-bending fun with the film but how this plays into the larger plot we do not know. It’s certainly going to be fun to find out. A little mystery never hurt anyone.

SEE ALSO: Warner Bros. remains committed to theatrical releases for Tenet and Wonder Woman 1984 “this summer, or whenever theaters reopen”

Tenet is set for release on July 17th and features a cast that includes John David Washington, Robert Pattinson, Elizabeth Debicki, Dimple Kapadia, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Clémence Poésy, Michael Caine and Kenneth Branagh.
